<u>Answer:</u> The percent composition by mass of hydrogen in given compound is 6.33 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

A chemical compound having chemical formula of $NH_4HCO_3$

It is made up by the combination of 1 nitrogen atom, 5 hydrogen atoms, 1 carbon atom and 3 oxygen atoms

To calculate the percentage composition by mass of hydrogen in the compound, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ composition of Hydrogen}=\frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Mass of compound}}\times 100$

Mass of compound = $[(1\times 14)+(5\times 1)+(1\times 12)+(3\times 16)]=79g/mol$

Mass of hydrogen = $(5\times 1)=5g/mol$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ composition of Hydrogen}=\frac{5g/mol}{79g/mol}\times 100=6.33\%$

Hence, the percent composition by mass of hydrogen in given compound is 6.33 %

When one material is rubbed against another, electrons jump readily from one to the other. why don’t protons do that?

Pachacha [2.7K]

Protons are held inside nucleous with neutrons with large amount of force. So mere rubbing doesn't help in breaking the nucleous of an atom. But electrons are far from the nucleous and the force of attraction is smaller. So electrons can jump readily while protons can't

the reaction of aluminum with chlorine gas is shown 2Al + 3Cl2 -> 2AlCl3 based on this equation how many molecules of chlorin

Vanyuwa [196]

45 molecules of chlorine gas (Cl₂) are needed to react with 30 atoms of aluminum (Al)

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

2Al + 3Cl₂ —> 2AlCl₃

From the balanced equation above,

2 atoms of Al required 3 molecules of Cl₂.

With the above information, we can determine the number of molecules of Cl₂ needed to react with 30 atoms of Al. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 atoms of Al required 3 molecules of Cl₂.

Therefore,

30 atoms of Al will require = $\frac{30 * 3}{2}\\$ = 45 molecules of Cl₂.

Thus, 45 molecules of chlorine gas (Cl₂) are needed to react with 30 atoms of aluminum (Al)

If measuring experimental results, what can you predict about the work output of a 1200 watt hair dryer? the work output of the

eimsori [14]

Answer: first option, the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input.

Explanation:

1) The work output measured in watts is the power of hair dryer measured in joules per second.

2) The hair dryer converts electrical energy from the wall outlet to mechanical and thermal energy: hot wind.

3) Nevertheless, you can never expect a 100% efficiency of the machines: due to friction, some energy is converted into useless energy.

So, efiiviency = power output / power input< 1 ⇒

power output = work output / time

input power = work input / time

⇒ work output / work input < 1

⇒ work output < work input.

Which is the first option: the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input
