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%

The half life of a certain radioactive element is 800 years. How old is an object if only 12.5% of radioactive atoms in it remai
Levart [38]

Given,  half life of a certain radioactive element = 800 years.

Amount of substance remaining at time t = 12.5%

Lets consider the initial amount of the radioactive substance  = 100%

Using the half life equation:

A = A₀(1/2)^t/t₁/₂

where A₀ is the amount of radioactive substance at time zero and A is the amount of radioactive substance at time t, and t₁/₂ is the half-life of the radioactive substance.

Plugging the given data into the half life equation we have,

12.5 = 100 . (1/2)^t/800

12.5/100 = (1/2)^t/800

0.125 = (0.5)^t/800

(0.5)^3 = (0.5)^t/800

3 = t/800

t = 2400 years

Thus the object is 2400 years  old.

Why do you elements in the same group have similar properties
lozanna [386]

Answer:

They have similar properties, because they share similar amounts of electrons in their outer shell, valence electrons! This means they will only be able to interact with other elements with those electrons so they often show similar properties.

How many moles of water are in a beaker with 50 mL?
tatiyna

Answer:

Number of moles = 2.8 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of water = ?

Volume of water = 50 mL

Density of water = 1.00 g/cm³

Solution:

1 cm³ =  1 mL

Density = mass/ volume

1.00 g/mL = mass/ 50 mL

Mass = 1.00 g/mL× 50 mL

Mass = 50 g

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 50 g / 18 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.8 mol
