3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

mass % of C = 0.27/0.45*100 = 60%

mass % of H = 0.02/0.45*100 = 4.4%

mass % of O = 0.16/0.45*100 = 35.6%

Total = 60%+4.4%+ 35.6% = 100%

When a 14.2-g sample of mercury (II) oxide is decomposed into its elements by heating, 13.2 g Hg is obtained. What is the percen
nevsk [136]
Mercury (ii) oxide is made up of mercury and oxygen. The total mass of mercury (ii) oxide is 14.2 g, after decomposition 13.2 g of mercury were formed, therefore the mass of oxygen 1 g (14.2 g -13.2 g).
Percentage of oxygen = (1/14.2)×100 = 7.04%
Percentage of mercury = (13.2/14.2) × 100 = 92.96%
Therefore, percentage composition of the compound, oxygen is 7.04% and mercury is 92.96%.

You have 500 mL of 5 M HCl already made. You need to dilute the solution to 1 M HCl. How much water will you need to add?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

You need to add 400mL of water

Explanation:

500mL = 5 M HCI     That means that if you divide both sides by 5

100mL = 1 M HCI         If you need ot get rid of 4 M HCI then you add 400 mL of water because that is what it is equal to

What inspired Mendeleev to create his organization for the elements
const2013 [10]

Dimitri Mendeleev was inspired primarily by the work of Antoine Lavoisier and his work on writing the first extensive list of known elements. Lavoisier also collaborated in the construction of the metric system and worked to develop a better nomenclature for chemical compounds which parts are still used today.
