What is he empirical formula for the compound that is of 1.85 moles of nitrogen and 4.63 miles of oxygen

Chemistry

BartSMP [9]3 years ago

The empirical formula is N₂O₅.

The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio of atoms</em> in a compound.  

The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles, so our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio of N:O</em>.  

I like to summarize the calculations in a table.  

<u>Element</u> <u>Moles</u>  <u>Ratio¹ </u>  <u> ×2²  </u>  <u>Integers</u>³

     N        1.85    1             2             2

     O        4.63    2.503   5.005     5

¹To get the molar ratio, you divide each number of moles by the smallest number (1.85).

²Multiply these values by a number (2) that makes the numbers in the ratio close to integers.

³Round off the number in the ratio to integers (2 and 5).

The empirical formula is N₂O₅.

How old is a bone if it now .3125 of C-14 when it originally had 80.0g of C-14
Taya2010 [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

42960 years

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Remaining mass of C-14 in a bone is 0.3125 g
  • Original mass of C-14 on the bone is 80.0 g
  • Half life of C-14 is 5370 years

We are required to determine the age of the bone;

  • Using the formula;
  • Remaining mass = Original mass × 0.5^n , where n is the number of half lives.

Therefore;

0.3125 g = 80.0 g × 0.5^n

3.90625 × 10^-3 = 0.5^n

  • Introducing logarithm on both sides;

log 3.90625 × 10^-3 = n log 0.5

Solving for n

n = log 3.90625 × 10^-3 ÷ log 0.5

   = 8

  • Therefore, the number of half lives is 8
  • But, 1 half life is 5370 years
  • Therefore;

Age of the rock = 5370 years × 8

                          = 42960 years

Thus, the bone is 42960 years old

An iron nail (Fe) is placed into a solution of copper(II) sulfate (CuSO4). After some time, the blue color of the copper (II) su
Sphinxa [80]
The reaction is a displacement reaction. Iron is more reactive than copper. Hence, it displaces copper,forming iron II sulfate and copper metal. 
This reaction is an exothermic reaction, hence it releases energy. The colour change indicates that iron has displaced copper.

When aluminum is placed in concentrated hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is produced. 2 Al ( s ) + 6 HCl ( aq ) ⟶ 2 AlCl 3 ( aq )
Dovator [93]

Answer:

The volume of hydrogen gas produced at STP is 4.90 liters.

Explanation:

2Al (s) + 6 HCl (aq)\rightarrow 2 AlCl_3 (aq) + 3 H_2 (g)

Moles of aluminium =\frac{3.60 g}{27 g/mol}=0.1333 mol

According to reaction , 2 moles of aluminium gives 3 moles of hydrogen gas.

Then 0.1333 moles of aluminium will give:

\frac{3}{2}\times 0.1333 mol=0.2 moles of hydrogen gas

Volume of 0.2 moles of hydrogen gas at STP = V

Temperature at STP = T = 298.15 K

Pressure at STP = P = 1 atm

n = 0.2 mol

PV = nRT (Ideal gas equation)

V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{0.2mol\times 0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298.15 K}{1 atm}=4.8956 L\approx 4.90 L

The volume of hydrogen gas produced at STP is 4.90 liters.

A spectral line has a wavelength of 7.35 *10-7 m. What is the energy of this radiation?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

2.7 x 10^-19 J

Explanation:

The formula needed for this problem is

E = hν

where E = energy, h = Planck's constant = 6.626x10^-34 and ν is the frequency

c = λν

where c = speed of light = 3x10^8, and λ = wavelength

3x10^8 = 7.35x10^-7 . ν

ν = 4.08 x 10^14 Hz

E = 6.626x10^-34 . 4.08x10^14 = 2.7 x 10^-19 J
