Answer:

53.85%

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Mass of antimony (Sb) = 27.6g

Mass of Fluorine (F) = 32.2g

Mass of compound = 59.8g

Percentage composition of fluorine (F) =..?

The percentage composition of fluorine can be obtained as follow:

Percentage composition of fluorine = mass of fluorine/mass of compound x 100

Percentage composition of fluorine = 32.2/59.8 x 100

= 53.85%

Therefore, the percentage composition of fluorine in the compound is 53.85%

Due to the small and highly electronegative nature of fluorine, the oxyacids of the this element are much less common and less s
steposvetlana [31]
We are told we have an oxyacid of the formula HOFO. We will assume the atoms are in this order and will draw a proper lewis structure for this compound by first drawing bonds between each of the 4 atoms and then place the remaining electron pairs on each atom:
      ..    ..    ..
H - O - F - O:
      ··   ··    ··
We can calculate the formal charge of an atom using the following formula:

Formal charge = [# of valence electrons] - [# of non-bonded electrons + # of bonds]

H: Formal charge = [1]-[0+1] = 0

O: Formal charge = [6]-[4+2] = 0

F: Formal charge = [7]-[4+2] = +1

O: Formal charge = [6]-[6+1] = -1

As we can see the overall charge of the molecule is neutral since the fluorine as a +1 charge and the oxygen a -1 charge.

How many half-lives will pass by the time 1.56% of I-131 is present? B. Approximately how many days does that equal? *
serg [7]

Answer: Hmmmmm that's crazy....

There are a couple of equations one could use for this type of problem, but I find the following to be the easiest to use and to understand.

Fraction remaining (FR) = 0.5n

n = number of half lives that have elapsed

In this problem, we need to find n and are given the FR, which is 1.56% or 0.0156 (as a fraction).

0.0156 = 0.5n

log 0.0156 = n log 0.5

-1.81 = -0.301 n

n = 6.0 half lives have elapsed

Explanation:

Just wanted to help. Hopefully it's correct wouldn't want to waster your time ;)

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

                     2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ → 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the unbalanced chemical equation,

                          C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

Step 2: Balance Carbon  Atoms;

As there are 4 carbon  atoms on left hand side and 1 carbon atoms on right hand site therefore, to balance them multiply CO₂ on right hand side by 4 i.e.

                            C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → 4 CO₂ + H₂O

Step 3: Balance Hydrogen Atoms;

There are 10 hydrogen atoms on left hand side and 2 hydrogen atom on right hand site therefore, to balance them multiply H₂O on left hand side by 5 i.e.

                            C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → 4 CO₂ +  5 H₂O

Step 4: Balance Oxygen Atoms:

Now there are 2 oxygen atoms in reactant side and 13 in product side. So, multiply O₂ by 6.5 i.e.

                            C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O

Step 5: Remove fraction coefficients as,

Multiply whole equation by 2 to get rid of fractions i.e.

                            2 C₄H₁₀ + 13 O₂ → 8 CO₂ + 10 H₂O
