What is the percent composition by mass of sulfur in the compound mgso4

Chemistry
1 answer:
Margaret [11]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

26.7% is the percent composition by mass of sulfur in a compound named magnesium sulfate.

Explanation:

Molar mass of compound = 120 g/mol

Number of sulfur atom = 1

Atomic mass of sulfur = 32 g/mol

Percentage of element in compound :

=\frac{\text{Number of atoms}\times \text{Atomic mass}}{\text{molar mas of compound}}\times 100

Sulfur :

=\frac{1\times 32 g/mol}{120 g/mol}\times 100=26.7\%

26.7% is the percent composition by mass of sulfur in a compound named magnesium sulfate.

What is the best name for the molecule below? (2 points)
Levart [38]
Given:

A compound with:

Number of carbon atoms = 9
Number of double bonds = 1 
A double bond between 5th and 6th carbon
A propyl group (CH2CH2CH3) branching off the 3rd carbon from the left

Try to illustrate the given and observe the formation of the atoms. Now, follow the correct IUPAC naming system. The name of the compound is 

4-propyl-1-hexene

Count from the right to the left, the double bond is between the 1st and 2nd carbon, thus, 1-hexene. The propyl branches out the 4th carbon from the right, thus 4-propyl.

Why atomic mass is an average vàlue​
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The atomic mass is the average number of protons and neutrons for all natural isotopes of an element. It is a decimal number.

Explanation:

Atomic Mass and Mass Number Example :

Hydrogen has three natural isotopes: 1H, 2H, and 3H. Each isotope has a different mass number.

1H has 1 proton. Its mass number is 1. 2H has 1 proton and 1 neutron. Its mass number is 2. 3H has 1 proton and 2 neutrons. Its mass number is 3. 99.98% of all hydrogen is 1H 0.018% of all hydrogen is 2H 0.002% of all hydrogen is 3H Together, they give a value of atomic mass of hydrogen equal to 1.0079 g/mol.
