The answer is: C) mass of any substance to moles.

To converte mass to amount of substances, mass must be divided by molar mass (n = m ÷ M).

Molar mass M represent the mass of a substance divided by the amount of substance. If the formula is not correct, amount of substance is not correct.

For example, calculate molar mass of iron(II) chloride:

Atomic mass of iron is 55.8 g/mol.

Atomic mass of chlorine is 35.5 g/mol.

If compound is FeCl, molar mass would be 55,8 g/mol + 35,5 g/mol = 91,3 g/mlo, that is not correct.

If compound is FeCl₂, malar mass of compound would be:

55,8 g/mol + 2·35,5 g/mol = 126,8 g/mol, that is correct.

A 1.555-g sample of baking soda decomposes with heat to produce 0.991 g Na2CO3. Refer to Example Exercise 14.l and show the calc

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

a) 101%

b)59.7%

Explanation:

The equation for the thermal decomposition of baking soda is shown;

2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

Number of moles of baking soda= mass/molar mass= 1.555g/84.007 g/mol = 0.0185 moles

From the reaction equation;

2 moles of baking soda yields 1 mole of sodium carbonate

0.0185 moles of baking soda will yield = 0.0185 moles ×1 /2 = 9.25 ×10^-3 moles of sodium carbonate.

Therefore, mass of sodium carbonate= 9.25 ×10^-3 moles × 106gmol-1= 0.9805 g of sodium carbonate. This is the theoretical yield of sodium carbonate.

%yield = actual yield/theoretical yield ×100

% yield = 0.991/0.9805 ×100

%yield = 101%

Since ;

2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

And H2O + CO2 ---> H2CO3

Hence I can write, 2NaHCO3 → Na2CO3 + H2CO3

Molar mass of H2CO3= 62.03 gmol-1

Molar mass of baking soda= 84 gmol-1

Therefore, mass of baking soda=

0.325/62.03 × 2 × 84 = 0.88 g of NaHCO3

% of NaHCO3= 0.88/1.473 × 100 = 59.7%

The molecular weight of a gas that has a density of 5.75 g/l at stp is __________ g/mol.

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer : The molecular weight of a gas is, 128.9 g/mole

Explanation : Given,

Density of a gas = 5.75 g/L

First we have to calculate the moles of gas.

At STP,

As, 22.4 liter volume of gas present in 1 mole of gas

So, 1 liter volume of gas present in $\frac{1}{22.4}=0.0446$ mole of gas

Now we have to calculate the molecular weight of a gas.

Formula used :

$\text{Moles of gas}=\frac{\text{Mass of a gas}}{\text{Molecular weight of a gas}}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the molecular weight of a gas.

$0.0446mole=\frac{5.75g}{\text{Molecular weight of a gas}}$

$\text{Molecular weight of a gas}=128.9g/mole$

Therefore, the molecular weight of a gas is, 128.9 g/mole
