In an equimolar mixture of o2 and n2, are the mass fractions equal?
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The mass fraction is defined as:

w_{i}=\frac{m_{i} }{m_{t} }

where:

  • wi: mass fraction of the substance i
  • mi: mass of the substance i
  • mt: total mass of the system

<u><em>The mass fraction of two substances (A and B), will be the same, ONLY if the mass of the substance A (mA) is the same as the mass of the substance B (mB).</em></u>

An equimolar mixutre of O2 and N2 has the same amount of moles of oxygen and nitrogen, just to give an example let's say that the system has 1 mole of O2 and 1 mole of N2. Then using the molecuar weigth of each of them we can calculate the mass:

mA= 1 mole of O2 * 16 g/1mol = 16 g

mB=1 mole of N2 *28 g/1mol=28 g

As mA≠mB then the mass fractions are not equal, so the answear is NO.

Arrange the following elements in order from least to greatest electronegativity:<br> Ca, F, Ne, Fe?
Burka [1]

Answer:

The electronegativity from order of least to highest is:

Ne, Ca, Fe, F

Explanation:

Elements in the periodic table have been arranged based on their level of electronegativity (which is the ability of an atom to attract electrons).

According to Paulings scale of rating elements based on their electronegativity, the electronegativity value of Fe, Ca, Ne, and F are 1.83, 1, 0 and 3.98 respectively.

Hence, based on Pauling scale, the order of electronegativity from least to highest is:

Ne > Ca > Fe > F

Group 2A metal oxides react with water to produce hydroxides. When 35.55 g of CaO are placed into 125 mL of water (d= 1.000 g/mL
Vika [28.1K]
Answer is: mass of calcium hydroxide is 46.98 grams.
Balanced chemical reaction: CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂.
m(CaO) = 35.55 g.
n(CaO) = m(CaO) ÷ M(CaO).
n(CaO) = 35.55 g ÷ 56 g/mol.
n(CaO) = 0.634 mol; limiting reactant.
m(H₂O) = 125 mL · 1.000 g/mL.
m(H₂O) = 125 g.
n(H₂O) = 125 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 6.94 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(CaO) : n(Ca(OH)₂) = 1 : 1.
n(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.634 mol.
m(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.634 mol · 74.1 g/mol = 46.98 g.
