Oxygen is the most abundant element in erath's crust (46 % by weight). Oxygen is present in Group 16 in the periodic table. The other elements in this period are: Sulphur (S), Selenium (Se), Tellurium (Te). The general electronic configuration of the elements present in Group 16 is: ns² np⁴. Oxygen is smallest in size among other elements in the same group. It exists as O₂ molecule where O=O bond is found. These O₂ molecules are associated through  van der Waal's force of attraction which are very weak, because of that O₂ exists as gas. Except oxygen, other elements do not form divalent molecule and they have  d-orbitals, so they can show catenation property by which large number of atoms are connected via covalent bonds. Hence those elements are not gaseous. Sulphur, Selenium and Tellurium are solid,

Answer:

24.9%

Explanation:

According to this question, mole fraction of NaCl in an aqueous solution is 0.0927. This means that the mole percent of NaCl in the solution is:

0.0927 × 100 = 9.27%

Let's assume that the solution contains water (solvent) + NaCl (solute), hence, the mole fraction of water will be;

100% - 9.27% = 90.73%

THEREFORE, it can be said that, NaCl contains 0.0927moles while H2O contains 9.073moles

N.B: mole = mass/molar mass

Given the Molar Mass

NaCl: 58.44 g/mol

H2O: 18.016 g/mol

For NaCl;

0.0927 = mass/58.44

mass = 0.0927 × 58.44

5.42g

For H2O;

9.073 = mass/18.016

mass = 9.073 × 18.016

= 16.35g

Total mass of solution = 16.35g + 5.42g = 21.77g

Mass percent of NaCl = mass of NaCl/total mass × 100

% mass of NaCl = 5.42g/21.77g × 100

= 0.249 × 100

= 24.9%

Help on this question please
oee [108]

Answer:

First choice: 2

Explanation:

There are 2 phosphorous (P) in the substance.

Ignore the strontium (Sr3) part because you are looking to isolate the P from (PO4)2.

Break the chemical equation apart to get 1 Phosphorous atom, and 4 Oxygen atoms.

Now, multiple 1 by 2 because that are 2 phosphate to get 2 phosphorous atoms.
