What is the percent by mass of oxygen in carbon dioxide (CO2)?

Chemistry
1 answer:
wariber [46]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

= 72.73%

Explanation:

The percentage by mass of an element is given by;

% element = total mass of element in compounds/molar mass of compound × 100

The mass of oxygen in carbon dioxide = 32 g

Molar mass of CO2 = 44 g

Therefore;

% of O2 = 32/44 × 100%

             <u>= 72.73%</u>

Sawing a board in half is an example of a chemical change
koban [17]

Sawing a board in half is a physical change not a chemical change the board doesnt change wood or whatever material it is is still would still be wood
If it were burned it would be a chemical change but its properties stay the same atomically so thats why its not a chemical change.

How many alkali metals will combine with 1 oxygen family member
Daniel [21]
The alkali metals are so reactive that they are never found in nature in elemental form. Although some of their ores are abundant, isolating them from their ores is somewhat difficult. For these reasons, the group 1 elements were unknown until the early 19th century, when Sir Humphry Davy first prepared sodium (Na) and potassium (K) by passing an electric current through molten alkalis. (The ashes produced by the combustion of wood are largely composed of potassium and sodium carbonate.) Lithium (Li) was discovered 10 years later when the Swedish chemist Johan Arfwedson was studying the composition of a new Brazilian mineral. Cesium (Cs) and rubidium (Rb) were not discovered until the 1860s, when Robert Bunsen conducted a systematic search for new elements. Known to chemistry students as the inventor of the Bunsen burner, Bunsen’s spectroscopic studies of ores showed sky blue and deep red emission lines that he attributed to two new elements, Cs and Rb, respectively. Francium (Fr) is found in only trace amounts in nature, so our knowledge of its chemistry is limited. All the isotopes of Fr have very short half-lives, in contrast to the other elements in group 1.
