To find percent composition do "parts over the whole" ---> each individual mass over the total mass times 100 (since it is a percentage). 

total mass ("the whole")= 73.5 + 42.0 + 72.3 grams= 150 grams

1. Carbon %= 73.5 grams/ 150 grams x 100= 49.0%

2. Hydrogen %= 4.20 grams/ 150 grams x 100= 2.80%

3. Chlorine %= 72.3 grams/ 150 grams x 100= 48.2%

A chemistry student weighs out 0.027 kg of an unknown solid compound X and adds it to 550. mL of distilled water at 30.° C. Afte
QveST [7]

Answer:

1. Yes

2.The solubility of X is 34.55g/L

Explanation:

Solubility of  solute refers to how readily a solute will dissolve in a solvent at a particular temperature. Its the amount of moles or grams required to saturate 1dm^{3} or 1 Litre of water.

From the problem, when the liquid was drained off and amount of X which didn't dissolve was measured, it weighed 0.008kg, this means out of 0.027kg, 0.027-0.008 actually dissolved

= 0.019kg*1000 = 19g.

if 19g is required to saturate 550mL at 30°C,

then\frac{19*1000}{550} will saturate 1L

= 34.545g  will saturate 1Litre

The solubility thus is 34.55g/L

How many PO43? ions are in a mole of K3PO4?
adoni [48]

K₃PO₄ → 3K⁺ (aq) + PO₄³⁻(aq)

One mole of PO₄³⁻ ion gets dissociated from one mole of K₃PO₄

As per the definition of Avogadro's number, 1 mole = 6.022 x 10²³ ions

One mole of PO₄³⁻ ions x  (6.022 x 10²³ ions/ 1 mole of PO₄³⁻ ions )

= 6.022 x 10²³ ions

Therefore , there are 6.022 x 10²³ PO₄³⁻ ions in a mole of K₃PO₄.

Mixture of 120 grams of KClO3 and 300 grams of water until all of the KClO3 has dissolved. At what temperature does this occur?
lozanna [386]

240°C is required to dissolve 120 grams of KClO₃ in 300 g of water.

Explanation:

As per the solubility curve graph of different salts dissolved in 100 g of water, it can be noted that the KClO₃ gets saturated at 100 °C with the solubility of 59 g in it. But here the water is taken as 300 g and the salt is taken as 120 g. The graph shows the solubility of grams of salt in 100 g of water.

So, then we have to find what is the gram of salt present in 100 g of water for the present sample.

300 g of water contains 120 grams of salt.

Then, 1 g of water will contain \frac{120}{300} g of salt.

Then, 100 g of water will contain \frac{120}{300}*100 of salt. This means, 100 g of water will contain 40 g of salt in it.

Then, if we check the graph, the corresponding x-axis point on the curve for the y-axis value of 40 g will give us the temperature required to dissolve the salt in water. So 80°C will be required to dissolve 40 g of salt in 100 g of water.

Then, in order to get the temperature required to dissolve 120 g in 300 g of water, multiply the temperature by 3, which will give the result as 80×3=240 °C.

So, 240°C is required to dissolve 120 grams of KClO₃ in 300 g of water.

What type of bond is this combination likely to form
kari74 [83]

Answer:

A combination is certainly possible, but you should not take formal charges so literally

Normally, when a covalent bond is found, the two atoms both bring in one electron. As you identify correctly, in the case of nitric acid that would not be possible completely. If you draw the different possible resonance structures, the most likely structure has a single bond between the nitrogen and an oxygen where the oxygen has 3 lone pairs and both electrons in the bond are donated by the nitrogen. This makes the nitrogen "positive" and that oxygen "negative", but in fact the electrons move more freely in the molecule and charges are more distributed. You will not be able to find "the negatively charged" oxygen atom.
