For the mineral torbernite, Cu(UO2)2(PO4)2⋅8H2O, determine the total number of atoms in one formula unit

Chemistry

ASHA 777 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

2.47x10^{25}atoms

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the mineral torbernite has one copper atom, two uranium atoms, twenty oxygen atoms (2x2+4x2+8), two phosphorous atoms and sixteen hydrogen atoms (12x2) and therefore forty one in total, by using the Avogadro's number one is able to compute the total number of atoms in one formula unit or one mole:

Atoms=1molCu(UO_2)_2(PO_4)_2\dot \ 8H_2O*\frac{41mol\ of \ atoms}{1molCu(UO_2)_2(PO_4)_2\dot \ 8H_2O}*\frac{6.022x10^{23}atoms}{1mol\ of \ atoms}  \\\\=2.47x10^{25}atoms

Best regards.

What is the mass, in grams, of 50.0L of N2 at STP?
vodka [1.7K]

Hey there!:

Molar mass N₂ = 28.0134 g/mol

28.0134 g ------------------- 22.4 L (at STP )

mass  N₂ -------------------- 50.0 L

mass N₂ = 50.0 x 28.0134 / 22.4

mass N₂ = 1400.67 / 22.4

mass N₂ = 62.529 g

Hope this helps!

What volume (in milliliters) of oxygen gas is required to react with 4.03 g of Mg at STP?
BigorU [14]
Mg reaction with O₂ gas will produce MgO so the equation will be
2Mg+O₂⇒2MgO. (You have to find the equation in order two figure out the number of moles of O₂ that will react with 1 mole of MgO).

The first step is to find the number of moles of Mg in 4.03g of Mg.  You can do this by dividing 4.03g Mg by its molar mass (which is 24.3g/mol) to get 0.1658mol Mg.  Then you have to find the number of moles of O₂ that will react with 0.1658mol Mg.  To do this you need to use the fact that 1mol O₂ will react with 2mol Mg (this reatio is from the chemical equation) so you have to multiply 0.1658mol Mg by (1mol O₂)/(2mol Mg) to get 0.0829mol O₂.  From here you would usually use PV=nRT and solve for V However, the question tells us that we are at STP, that means you can use the fact that 22.4L of gas is 1 mol of gas at STP.  Using that information we can find the volume of O₂ gas by mulitlying 0.0829mol O₂ by 22.4L/mol to get 1.857L which equals 1857mL.
therefore, 1857mL of O₂ gas will react with 4.03g of Mg.

I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

A cube of an unknown metal is 1.25 inches on each side and has a mass of 128.3741 g. What is its' density?
Mademuasel [1]
Hey there!

To find the density of an object, you must use this formula:
Density=Mass/Volume

Knowing that your mass is 128.3741, the only information you need left would be to find the volume of the cube.

Because the side length of the cube is given, you can multiply the length three times in order to find its volume:
1.25*1.25*1.25
=1.953125

Now that you have your volume and mass, divide the mass by the volume to find the density:
128.3741/1.953125
=65.7275392

Therefore, your density would be 65.7275392 grams per inches cubed.
