Answer:

Percentage composition = 14.583%

Explanation:

In chemistry, the emprical formular of a compound is the simplest formular a compound can have. It shows the simplest ratio in which the elements are combined in the compound.

Percentage composition by mass of Nitrogen

Nitrogen = 14g/mol

In one mole of the compound;

Mass of Nitrogen = 1 mol * 14g/mol = 14g

Mass of compound = 1 mol * 96.0 g/mol = 96

Percentage composition of Nitrogen = (Mass of Nitrogen /  Mass of compound) * 100

percentage composition = 14/96   * 100

Percentage composition = 0.14583 * 100

Percentage composition = 14.583%

What is the atomic nucleus made of ?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Answer: nucleons

Explanation:

The nucleons are the particles that constitue the nuclei of the atoms. Those are protons and neutrons.

They are not elementary particles (quarks are the elementary particles that form both protons and neutrons).

Protons are the particles that define the elements. Any different elements have different number of protons. H has one proton, He has 2 protons, Li has three protons, Na has 11 protons, U has 92 protons.

Protons are positively charged and the number of protons in any neutral atom is equal to the number of electrons (the electrons, which are elementary negatively charged particles, are around the nucleous).

Neutrons have not charge and are responsible for the stability of the nuclei. They are fundamental to avoid that the repulsion forces between the positively charged protons ends causing the collapse of the nuclei.

2. HOW MUCH HEAT IS REQUIRED TO BE RELEASED WHEN
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: -112200J

Explanation:

The amount of heat (Q) released from an heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = ?

Mass of water vapour = 30.0g

C = 187 J/ G°C

Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)

= 100°C - 120°C = -20°C

Then apply the formula, Q = MCΦ

Q = 30.0g x 187 J/ G°C x -20°C

Q = -112200J (The negative sign does indicates that heat was released to the surroundings)

Thus, -112200 joules of heat is released when cooling the superheated vapour.
