Answer:fluorine=0.5082

Iron=0.3388

Explanation:

Using Empirical formula to show the ratio.

F. Fe

50.51/39 49.49/56

=1.295. 0.88375

=1.295/0.88375 :0.88375/0.88375

=1.465:1

multiply each term by 2 to get a whole number ratio,we have

=(1.465*2) :(1*2)

=2.93:2

=3:2

To get the amount if each contribution of F and Fe,we use ratio,

F=3/(3+2)=3/5*total mass(0.847)

F=0.5082g

Similarly,Fe=2/5*0.847

Fe=0.3388g.

Answer: 0,4278g of F and 0,4191g of Fe

Explanation: it's possible to calculate the mass of each element by multiplying the percentage (decimal) of the element by the mass of the compound.

For Fluorine (F)

0,847g * 0,5051 = 0,4278g of F

For iron (Fe)

0,847 * 0,4949 = 0,4191g of Fe

This is determined because even when the compound is decomposed, due to conservative law of mass, the decomposition process do not affect the amount of matter, so the mass of the elements remain even if they are separated from the original molecule.

At the end, the sum of the elements masses should be the total mass of the compound.

Identify the limiting reactant in the reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen to form NH3 if 5.23 g of N2 and 5.52 g of H2 are combine
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

1) The limiting reactant is N₂ because it is present with the lower no. of moles than H₂.

2) The amount (in grams) of excess reactant H₂ = 4.39 g.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we should write the balanced equation of the reaction:

<em>N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃.</em>

<em>1) To determine the limiting reactant of the reaction:</em>

  • From the stichiometry of the balanced equation, 1.0 mole of N₂ reacts with 3.0 moles of H₂ to produce 2.0 moles of NH₃.
  • This means that <em>N₂ reacts with H₂ with a ratio of (1:3).</em>
  • We need to calculate the no. of moles (n) of N₂ (5.23 g) and H₂ (5.52 g) using the relation:<em> n = mass / molar mass.</em>

The no. of moles of N₂ in (5.23 g) = mass / molar mass = (5.23 g) / (28.00 g/mol) = 0.1868 mol.

The no. of moles of H₂ (5.52 g) = mass / molar mass = (5.52 g) / (2.015 g/mol) = 2.74 mol.

  • From the stichiometry, N₂ reacts with H₂ with a ratio of (1:3).

The ratio of the reactants of N₂ (5.23 g, 0.1868 mol) to H₂ (5.52 g, 2.74 mol) is (1:14.67).

∴ The limiting reactant is N₂ because it is present with the lower no. of moles than H₂.

0.1868 mol of N₂ react completely with 0.5604 mol of H₂ and the remaining of H₂ is in excess.

<em>2) To determine the amount (in grams) of excess reactant of the reaction:</em>

  • As showed in the part 1, The limiting reactant is N₂ because it is present with the lower no. of moles than H₂.
  • Also, 0.1868 mol of N₂ react completely with 0.5604 mol of H₂ and the remaining of H₂ is in excess.
  • The no. of moles are in excess of H₂ = 2.74 mol - 0.5604 mol (reacted with N₂) = 2.1796 mol.
  • ∴ The amount (in grams) of excess reactant H₂ = n (excess moles) x molar mass = (2.1796 mol)((2.015 g/mol) = 4.39 g.

The hydrogen ions in the core of the sun move at high speed. Colliding together and sticking to each other.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The process describes the source of energy of the Sun such that it shines as a result of nuclear fusion of hydrogen taking place.  

Explanation:

The Sun generates energy by hydrogen within the Sun undergoing nuclear fusion to form helium.

Nuclear fusion reaction involves combining of two or more atomic nuclei to produce one or more completely different atomic nuclei as well as protons or neutrons, with a loss or gain of mass and the release or absorption of energy.

The process whereby four hydrogen atoms combine to form one helium atom  with a mass deficit, which is accounted for by the release of energy, result in the high intense light of the Sun.

How many grams of carbonic acid were produced by the 3.00 g sample of NaHCO
stellarik [79]
I think the given is 3 g sample of NaHCO3. then if it will be reacted with an acid, it will produce H2CO3.
 so the reaction NaHCO3 + HCl --> NaCl + H2CO3

mas of H2CO3 = 3 g NaHCO3 ( 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84 g ) ( 1 mol H2CO3 / 1 mol NaHCO3) ( 62.03 g / 1 mol )
mass of H2CO3 = 2.22 g H2CO3

1- What do greenhouse gases do in our atmosphere? a. They absorb radiation given off by the Earth b They block harmful radiation
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: A. They absorb radiation given off by the earth.

Explanation: Green house gases are gases that have the capability of trapping the heat energy from the sun in our environment. These special attribute of these gases is what keeps our environment warm and sustain life as we know it. Example of Green House Gases include: carbon dioxide, water vapour and methane.
