Question:

Options available;

a. 22%

b. 21.4%

c. 78.5%

d. 27%

Answer:

The percentage by mass of water in the crystal is 21.4%

The correct option is;

b. 21.4%

Explanation:

From the question,

The initial mass of hydrate crystal = 6.235 g

Final mass of crystal = 4.90 g

Mass of water molecules displaced = 6.235 g - 4.90 g = g

Percentage by mass of water in the crystal is found from the following relationship;

1.335

Therefore;

Percentage \ by \ mass = \frac{1.335 \ g}{6.235 \ g} \times 100= 21.41  \% \approx 21.4\%

The percentage by mass of water in the crystal = 21.4%.

Answer:

The percent by mass of water in this crystal is:

  • <u>21.4%</u>

Explanation:

This exercise can be easily solved using a simple rule of three where the initial weight of the hydrated crystal (6,235 g) is taken into account as 100% of the mass, and the percentage to which the mass of 4.90 g corresponds (after getting warm). First, the values and unknown variable are established:

  • 6,235 g = 100%
  • 4.90 g = X

And the value of the variable X is found:

  • X = (4.90 g * 100%) / 6,235 g
  • X = approximately 78.6%.

The calculated value is not yet the percentage of the water, since the water after heating the glass has evaporated, therefore, the remaining percentage must be taken, which can be calculated by subtraction:

  • Water percentage = Total percentage - Percentage after heating.
  • <u>Water percentage = 100% - 78.6% = 21.4%</u>

Calculate the number of moles of an ideal gas if it occupies 1750 dm3 under 125,000 Pa at a temperature of 127 C.
Phoenix [80]

Hey there!


* Converts 1750 dm³ in liters :


1 dm³ = 1 L so 1750 dm³ = 1750 liters



* Convertes 125,000 Pa in atm :


1 Pa = 9.86*10⁻⁶ atm so 9.86*10⁻⁶ / 125,000 => 1.233 atm


* Convertes 127ºC in K :


127 + 273.15 => 400.15 K


R = 0.082 atm.L/mol.K


Finally, it uses an equation of clapeyron :


p * V = n * R * T


1.233 * 1750 = n * 0.082 * 400.15


2157.75 = n * 32.8123


n = 2157.75 / 32.8123


n = 65.76 moles



hope this helps!

I need help with this one pls, ty! ASAP

Answer:

Explanation:

1. A measure of how quickly velocity is changing is the acceleration

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. The rate at which a body is changing its velocity is known as the acceleration.

It is measured in the unit m/s²

2. Speed in a given direction is the velocity

Velocity is a vector quantity which measures the magnitude of motion in a specific direction. It is simply speed in a given direction.

When we say a motorcycle travels at the rate of 5m/s due east, we are describing the velocity of such body.

3. Force that resists moving one object against another is the friction

Friction is a force that opposes motion. It prevents a body from moving.

4. Measure of the pull of gravity on an object Weight

Weight is a measure of the amount of gravitational force on a body. It is mathematically expressed as;

         W = mg

W is the weight, m is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity

5 Tendency of an object to resist a change in motion is inertia

Inertia is the tendency of body to resist change in motion. It is the ability of a body to remain in a perpetual state of rest.

When the following molecular equation is balanced using the smallest possible integer coefficients, the values of these coeffici
tatuchka [14]

The values of the coefficients would be 4, 5, 4, and 6 respectively.

<h3>Balancing chemical equations</h3>

The equation of the reaction can be represented by the following chemical equation:

ammonia (g) + oxygen (g) ---> nitrogen monoxide (g) + water (g)

  4NH_3(g)     +    5O_2(g)        --->           4NO(g)              +  6H_2O(g)

Thus, the coefficient of ammonia will be 4, that of oxygen will be 5, that of nitrogen monoxide will be 4, and that of water will be 6.

An ideal gas in a cylindrical container of radius r and height h is kept at constant pressure p. The bottom of the container is
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

m =\frac{p*(pi)*r^{2}*h*mw}{R*\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}}  

Explanation:

The gas ideal law is  

PV= nRT (equation 1)

Where:

P = pressure  

R = gas constant  

T = temperature  

n= moles of substance  

V = volume  

Working with equation 1 we can get  

n =\frac{PV}{RT}

The number of moles is mass (m) / molecular weight (mw). Replacing this value in the equation we get.

\frac{m}{mw} =\frac{PV}{RT}  or  

m =\frac{P*V*mw}{R*T}   (equation 2)

The cylindrical container has a constant pressure p  

The volume is the volume of a cylinder this is

V =(pi)*r^{2}*h

Where:

r = radius  

h = height  

(pi) = number pi (3.1415)

This cylinder has a radius, r and height, h so the volume is  V =(pi)*r^{2}*h

Since the temperatures has linear distribution, we can say that the temperature in the cylinder is the average between the temperature in the top and in the bottom of the cylinder. This is:  

T =\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}  

Replacing these values in the equation 2 we get:

m =\frac{P*V*mw}{R*T}   (equation 2)

m =\frac{p*(pi)*r^{2}*h*mw}{R*\frac{T_{1} + T_{O}}{2}}
