Answer:

Mg₃N₂

Explanation:

The empirical formula of a chemical compound is defined as the simplest positive integer ratio of atoms present in a compound. Using molecular mass of Mg (24,305g/mol) and mass of nitrogen (14,006g/mol), moles of each element are:

0,73g × (1mol / 24,305g) = 0,03 moles of Mg

0,28g × (1mol / 14,006g) = 0,02 moles of N

Dividing each value in 0,01 to obtain natural numbers:

0,03 moles of Mg / 0,01 = 3

0,02 moles of N / 0,01 = 2.

Thus, empirical formula is: <em>Mg₃N₂</em>

Calculate the compound amount. Use the compound amount formula and a calculator. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) P =
Julli [10]

Answer:

The compound amount is $303.03 .

Explanation:

Formula for compound interest:

A=P\times (1+\frac{R}{n})^{tn})

Principle amount  = $1100

Rate of the interest compounded semiannually :

= R = 9% = 0.09

Number of times interest compounded, n = \frac{12}{6}=2

(semi means two times in a year)

Time period = T = 14

A=\$1100\times (1+\frac{0.09}{2})^{2\times 14}=\$303.0310\approx \$303.03

The compound amount is $303.03 .

1. HCl (H:1, Cl 35.5) ---> 1+35.5 = 36.5
2. FeS (Fe:56, S:32) ---> 56+32 = 88
3. Cl2 (Cl:35.5) ---> 35.5 x 2 = 71
4. CaC03 (Ca:40, C: 12, O: 16) ---> 40 + 12 + 3(16) = 100
5. Fe0 (Fe: 56, O: 16) ---> 56+16=72

Select the correct answer. Given: 2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl3 + 3H2 If the chemical reaction produces 129 grams of AlCl3, how many grams
ivann1987 [24]

The reaction produces 2.93 g H₂.

M_r:                        133.34  2.016

        2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂

<em>Moles of AlCl₃</em> = 129 g AlCl₃ × (1 mol AlCl₃/133.34 g AlCl₃) = 0.9675 mol AlCl₃

<em>Moles of H₂</em> = 0.9675 mol AlCl₃ × (3 mol H₂/2 mol AlCl₃) = 1.451 mol H₂

<em>Mass of H₂</em> = 1.451 mol H₂ × (2.016 g H₂/1 mol H₂) = 2.93 g H₂
