To get the empirical formula of this compound, we take a basis of 100 grams which means each percentage is equivalent to 1 gram. Hence there is 32.39 grams sodium, 22. 53 grams sulfur and 45.07 grams oxygen. We convert each mass to their moles by dividing by their respective molar mass. Na: 1.408, S:0.704 and O:2.82. divide each with the lowest: Na: 2: S: 1 and O:4. Hence the formula is Na2SO4.

If you react 156.0 g of calcium chloride with an excess NaOH, how much sodium chloride should you get?
laiz [17]

Answer:

164.3g of NaCl

Explanation:

Based on the chemical equation:

CaCl2 + 2NaOH → 2NaCl + Ca(OH)2

<em>where 1 mole of CaCl2 reacts with 2 moles of NaOH</em>

To solve this question we must convert the mass of CaCl2 to moles. Using the chemical equation we can find the moles of NaCl and its mass:

<em>Moles CaCl2 -Molar mass: 110.98g/mol-</em>

156.0g CaCl₂ * (1mol / 110.98g) = 1.4057 moles CaCl2

<em>Moles NaCl:</em>

1.4057 moles CaCl2 * (2mol NaCl / 1mol CaCl2) = 2.811 moles NaCl

<em>Mass NaCl -Molar mass: 58.44g/mol-</em>

2.811 moles NaCl * (58.44g / mol) = 164.3g of NaCl

What is the density of aluminum in grams per cubic centimeter?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Density of aluminum is 2.699 g/cm^3

Explanation:

Density of a given material can be defined as the mass of the substance present in a unit volume. Mathematically it can be expressed as:

Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

Units: g/cm^3 or kg/m^3

Aluminum (Al) is one the lightest element and is known to have a density of 2.699 g/cm^3
