  <span>Step 1 is to determine the mass of each part 
Mass of Ca is 40.08 g 
Mass of C is 12.01 g 
Mass of O is 16.00 x 3 = 48.00 g 
Step 2 is to determine the total mass of the compound 
Total mass of CaCO3 is 40.08 + 12.01 + 48.00 = 100.09 g 

Step 3 is to determine the % of each part using the following formula: 
Mass of part / total mass x 100 = 

40.08 / 100.09 x 100 = 40.04 % Ca 

12.01 / 100.09 x 100 = 12.00 % C 

48.00 / 100.09 x 100 = 47.96 % O 

Step 4 is to double check by adding all percentages. If they equal 100, then I probably did it right. :) 
40.04 
+12.00 
+47.96 
=100.00</span><span>

How is stoichiometry used to calculate energy released when a mass of liquid freezes?
kati45 [8]

Answer:

D. Grams liquid x mol/g x delta Hf​reezing

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to reason that the stoichiometry used to calculate energy released when a mass of liquid freezes, involves the grams of the liquid, the molar mass of the liquid, as given in all the group choices, and the enthalpy of freezing because that is the process whereby a liquid goes solid.

In such a way, we infer that the correct factor would be D. Grams liquid x mol/g x delta Hf​reezing which sometimes is the negative of the enthalpy of fusion as they are contrary processes.

Regards!

Hydrates that have a low vapor pressure and remove moisture from air are said to be ___. Question 8 options: effloresce hygrosco
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Hygroscopic

Explanation:

An hygroscopic substance is one that absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and becomes wet. Their ability to remove water from air is less than that of deliquescent substances. Most of the solid hygroscopic substances forms pasty substances and not solutions like the deliquescent compounds.

Examples are sodium trioxonitrate(v), copper(ii) oxide e.t.c

Efflorescence compounds gives off their water of crystallization to the atmosphere.

Elements can be described by various properties, and identified by their boiling and melting points. For example, gold melts at 1,064ºC and boils at 2,856ºC. Does boiling point depend on the mass present?

A. No; chemical properties stay the same regardless of mass.

B. No; physical properties stay the same regardless of mass.

C. Yes; physical properties can change when mass increases or decreases.

D. No; qualitative properties like boiling point stay the same regardless of mass.

30 POINTS! ----- How many moles of oxygen gas are needed to completely react with 145 grams of aluminum? Report your answer with
gladu [14]
First a balanced reaction equation must be established:
4Al _{(s)}    +   3 O_{2}  _{(g)}     →    2 Al_{2} O_{3}

Now if mass of aluminum = 145 g
the moles of aluminum = (MASS) ÷ (MOLAR MASS) = 145 g ÷ 30 g/mol
                                                                                    =  4.83 mols

Now the mole ratio of Al : O₂ based on the equation is  4 : 3  
                                                                [4Al  + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃]

∴ if moles of Al = 4.83 moles
  then moles of O₂ = (4.83 mol ÷ 4) × 3
                              =  3.63 mol   (to  2 sig. fig.) 

Thus it can be concluded that 3.63 moles of oxygen is needed to react completely with 145 g of aluminum.

Identify the element: 6 energy level, metallic, 82 election
Lady bird [3.3K]

<u>Answer</u>:-

Name of element = Lead

Symbol ♾ of Lead = Pb

Atomic no. = 82

Atomic mass = 207.2 amu

No. of protons = 82

No. of electrons = 82

Yes, lead(Pb) is a metallic element and certainly it has 6 electron shells which means 6 energy level.

If you find anything unclear you can ask me...
