Two samples of carbon tetrachloride were decomposed into their constituent elements. One sample produced 38.9 g of carbon and 45

1 g of chlorine, and the other sample produced 14.8 g of carbon and 135 g of chlorine. Are these results consistent with the law of definite proportions? Show why or why not.

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

The results mentioned are <u>not consistent </u>with the law of definite proportions.

Law of definite proportions states that a chemical compound contains exactly the same elements in the same proportion by weight independent of its source and method of it's preparation.

In the given question, the first sample contains 38.9 g of carbon and 451 g of chlorine that means the sample has 8% of carbon and 92% of chlorine.

On the other hand, second sample contains 14.8 g of carbon and 135 g of chlorine which means that this sample has 10% of carbon and 90% of chlorine.

Since the constituent elements in both the samples are not in fixed and constant proportions (by mass), the law of definite proportions fails here.

Calculate the number of C atoms in 0.190 mole C6H14O.<br> can anyone help me on this one?
likoan [24]
In 0.190 mole of C6H14O, there is 0.190*6 (number of C in one molecule) = 1.140 mole of C atoms. The total number of C atoms = 1.14 * 6*10^{23} (atoms of C in one mole) = 6.84*10^{23} atoms.

Uranium-267 undergoes alpha decay, what is the mass of the new element?
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

will this help ?

Explanation:

(108Hs) is a synthetic element, and thus a standard atomic weight cannot be given. Like all synthetic elements, it has no stable isotopes. The first isotope to be synthesized was 265Hs in 1984. There are 12 known isotopes from 263Hs to 277Hs and 1–4 isomers. The most stable isotope of hassium cannot be determined based on existing data due to uncertainty that arises from the low number of measurements. The confidence interval of half-life of 269Hs corresponding to one standard deviation (the interval is ~68.3% likely to contain the actual value) is 16 ± 6 seconds, whereas that of 270Hs is 9 ± 4 seconds. It is also possible that 277mHs is more stable than both of these, with its half-life likely being 110 ± 70 seconds, but only one event of decay of this isotope has been registered as of 2016.[1][2].

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!
Akimi4 [234]

Explanation:

The magnet uses electromagnetic induction meaning it can be readily magnetized and demagnetized (using electricity) when required. When electricity is switched on, it becomes magnetized and lifts an object and when electricity is switched off, it loses magnetism and releases the object.

The magnetic is able to lift heavy objects because it has powerful conductor material (ferromagnetic iron) and the number of electromagnetic coils is many to induce a powerful magnetic force. The electric current, inducing the magnetism, is also powerful.

If Lithium and Nitrogen created a bond what would the ratios be?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

There would be three Lithium atoms per one Nitrogen atom.

3:1

Li3N (Lithium Nitride)

Explanation:

Group 15 elements usually have 5 valence electrons, and every atom wants to have a full valence shell of valence electrons. So, nitrogen can get three electrons from each Lithium atom in order to get a full octet.
