Calculate the percent of composition of oxygen in Mercury (ll) oxide HgO

Chemistry
1 answer:
bekas [8.4K]3 years ago
6 0
Add up the molar mass of Mercury Oxide, and then divide the molar mass of Oxygen by the molar mass of the compound.

So...

mm of Hg + mm of O= 200.59g + 16g= 217g

16g/217g = .0737... x 100 = 7.37%

How do I solve the following word problem: The half-life of Phosphorus - 32 is 14.3 days. It is used to study a plant's use of f
BaLLatris [955]

Half life is the time that it takes for half of the original value of some amount of a radioactive element to decay.

We have the following equation representing the half-life decay:

A=A_o\times2^{(-\frac{t}{t_{half}})_{}_{}}

A is the resulting amount after t time

Ao is the initial amount = 50 mg

t= Elapsed time

t half is the half-life of the substance = 14.3 days

We replace the know values into the equation to have an exponential decay function for a 50mg sample

A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-t}{14.3}}

That would be the answer for a)

To know the P-32 remaining after 84 days we have to replace this value in the equation:

\begin{gathered} A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-84}{14.3}} \\ A=0.85\text{ mg} \end{gathered}

So, after 84 days the P-32 remaining will be 0.85 mg

When a hydrogen atom makes the transition from the second excited state to the ground state (at -13.6 eV) the energy of the phot
viktelen [127]

Answer : The energy of the photon emitted is, -12.1 eV

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the 'n^{th}' orbit of hydrogen atom.

Formula used :

E_n=-13.6\times \frac{Z^2}{n^2}ev

where,

E_n = energy of n^{th} orbit

n = number of orbit

Z = atomic number  of hydrogen atom = 1

Energy of n = 1 in an hydrogen atom:

E_1=-13.6\times \frac{1^2}{1^2}eV=-13.6eV

Energy of n = 2 in an hydrogen atom:

E_3=-13.6\times \frac{1^2}{3^2}eV=-1.51eV

Energy change transition from n = 1 to n = 3 occurs.

Let energy change be E.

E=E_-E_3=(-13.6eV)-(-1.51eV)=-12.1eV

The negative sign indicates that energy of the photon emitted.

Thus, the energy of the photon emitted is, -12.1 eV

What is reduction potential?​
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

A reduction potential measures the tendency of a molecule to be reduced by taking up new electrons. ... Standard reduction potentials can be useful in determining the directionality of a reaction. The reduction potential of a given species can be considered to be the negative of the oxidation potential.
