To find this, we will use this formula:
Molar mass of element
------------------------------------ x 100
Molar mass of compound
So, first lets calculate the mass of the compound as a whole. We use the atomic masses on the periodic table to determine this.
Ca: 40.078 g/mol
N2 (there is two nitrogens): 28.014 g/mol
O6 (there are six nitrogens: 3 times 2): 95.994 g/mol
When we add all of those numbers up together, we get 164.086. That is the molar mass for the whole compound. However, we are trying to figure out what percent of the compound oxygen makes up. From the molar mass, we know that 95.994 of the 164.086 is oxygen. Lets plug those numbers into our equation!
95.994
-----------
164.086
When we divide those two numbers, we get .585. When we multiply that by 100, we get 58.5.
So, the percent compostition of oxygen in Ca(NO3)2, or, calcium nitrate, is 58.5%.
I think co 2 maybe
I cant remember
Answer:
0.88g
Explanation:
The reaction equation:
2NaI + Cl₂ → 2NaCl + I₂
Given parameters:
Mass of Sodium iodide = 2.29g
Unknown:
Mass of NaCl = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we work from the known to the unknown.
First find the number of NaI from the mass given;
Number of moles =
Molar mass of NaI = 23 + 126.9 = 149.9g/mol
Now insert the parameters and solve;
Number of moles =
= 0.015mol
So;
From the balanced reaction equation;
2 moles of NaI produced 2 moles of NaCl
0.015mole of NaI will produce 0.015mole of NaCl
Therefore;
Mass = number of moles x molar mass
Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol
Now;
Mass of NaCl = 0.015 x 58.5 = 0.88g
it is a solute and a solvent
