Finding percent composition is fairly easy. You only need to divide the mass of an element by the total mass of the compound. We can do this one element at a time.
First, let's find the total mass by using the masses of the elements given on the periodic table.
7 x 12.011 (mass of Carbon) = 84.077
5 x 1.008 (mass of Hydrogen) = 5.04
3 x 14.007 (mass of Nitrogen) = 42.021
6 x 15.999 (mass of Oxygen) = 95.994
Add all of those pieces together.
84.077 + 5.04 + 42.021 + 95.994 = 227.132 g/mol is your total. Since we also just found the mass of each individual element, the next step will be very easy.
Carbon: 84.077 / 227.132 = 0.37016 ≈ 37.01 %
Hydrogen: 5.04 / 227.132 = 0.022189 ≈ 2.22 %
Nitrogen: 42.021 / 227.132 = 0.185 ≈ 18.5 %
Oxygen: 95.994 / 227.132 = 0.42263 ≈ 42.26 %
You can check your work by making sure they add up to 100%. The ones I just found add up to 99.99, which is close enough. A small difference (no more than 0.03 in my experience) is just a matter of where you rounded your numbers.
Answer:
Energy in an ecosystem comes from the Sun.
Explanation:
It is a major source of energy for organisms, plants and the whole ecosystem basically.
The first question's answer is
Answer:
The molarity (M) of the following solutions are :
A. M = 0.88 M
B. M = 0.76 M
Explanation:
A. Molarity (M) of 19.2 g of Al(OH)3 dissolved in water to make 280 mL of solution.
Molar mass of Al(OH)3 = Mass of Al + 3(mass of O + mass of H)
= 27 + 3(16 + 1)
= 27 + 3(17) = 27 + 51
= 78 g/mole
= 78 g/mole
Given mass= 19.2 g/mole
Moles = 0.246
Volume = 280 mL = 0.280 L
Molarity = 0.879 M
Molarity = 0.88 M
B .The molarity (M) of a 2.6 L solution made with 235.9 g of KBr
Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mole
Given mass = 235.9 g
Moles = 1.98
Volume = 2.6 L
Molarity = 0.762 M
Molarity = 0.76 M
