Which compound has the highest precent composition by mass of strontium?

First find the molar masses of all of the compounds:
SrCl2 = 158.53g/mol
SrI2 = 341.43g/mol
SrO = 103.62g/mol
SrS = 119.68g/mo

Then find the molar mass of Sr in each of the compounds. Since there is only one Sr in every compound, the mass will be the same: 87.62g/mol Sr

Now divide the molar mass of Sr by each of compounds' masses:
SrCl2 = (87.62)/(158.53) = 0.553
SrI2 = (87.62)/(341.43) = 0.257
SrO = (87.62)/(103.62) = 0.846
SrS = (87.62)/(119.68) = 0.732

Now multiply each of the results by 100 to get the percent composition of Sr by mass:
(0.553)(100) = 55.3% Sr in SrCl2
(0.257)(100) = 25.7% Sr in SrI2
(0.846)(100) = 84.6% Sr in SrO
(0.732)(100) = 73.2% Sr in SrS

Thus SrO has the highest percent composition by mass of Sr

Alisiya [41]

Answer:Hence, the bond length in HCl is 125 pm.

Explanation:

Bond length : It is an average distance between the nuclei of two bonded atoms in a molecule.

Also given that bond length is the distance between the centers of two bonded atoms. on the potential energy curve, the bond length is the inter-nuclear distance between the two atoms when the potential energy of the system reaches its lowest value. Beyond this if atoms come closer to each other then their will be repulsion between them.

So, the bond length between the Hydrogen and Chlorine atom in HCl molecule is :

$Bond length=radius _{hydrogen}+radius_{chlorine}=25pm+100pm=125pm$

Hence, the bond length in HCl is 125 pm.

The two blocks have the same amount of thermal energy.

<h3>Effect of temperature on different mass objects</h3>

Due to platinum metal, the thermal energy is equally distributed in the whole metal so that's equal distribution the thermal energy of both blocks will be the same so we can conclude that the two blocks have the same amount of thermal energy.
