Answer:

Carbon has the highest mass percent

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Predict the element that will have the highest mass percent composition in each compound without doing any calculations.

For C3H6O, carbon will have the highest mass percent. The molar mass of of Oxygen and carbon are more or less the same. But we have 3x more Carbon than oxygen.

Identify the element that has the highest mass percent composition in C3H6O .

atomic mass C = 12.01 g/mol

atomic mass O = 16.0 g/mol

atomic mass H = 1.01 g/mol

molar mass C3H6O = 58.08 g/mol

%C = (3*12.01 / 58.08) * 100 %

%C = 62.04%

%O = (15.99 /58.08) *100%

%O = 27.53 %

%H = (6*1.01 / 58.08) * 100%

%H = 10.43

Carbon has the highest mass percent

<h2>Steps:</h2>
  • Remember that Density = mass/volume, or D = m/v

So firstly, we have to find the volume of the rock. To do this, we need to subtract the volume of water A from the volume of the water B. In this case:

  • Water A = 30 mL
  • Water B = 40 mL
  • 40 mL - 30 mL = 10 mL

<u>The volume of the rock is 10 mL.</u>

Now that we have the volume, we can plug that and the density of the rock into the density equation to solve for the mass.

3.678=\frac{m}{10}

For this, multiply both sides by 10:

36.78=m

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Rounding to the tenths place, the mass of the rock is 36.8 g, or C.</u>

A topaz crystal has an interplanar spacing (d) of 1.36 Å (1 Å =1×10^[−10] m). Calculate the wavelength of the X-ray that should
bija089 [108]

Answer:

7.0*10-11m or 70Å

Explanation:

From Bragg's equation, w=2dsinx/n

Since all the parameters are specified in the question, we can easily go ahead to obtain the wavelength but we must convert the spacing given in angstroms to meters using the conversion factor provided as shown in the solution below:

How can ionic bonds and naming be used in a real life example ?
Stells [14]

Answer:

Melting snow more efficiently in winters, understanding the components of mineral water

Explanation:

Let's split this question into two parts. First of all, ionic bonds:

  • an example would be the application of the freezing point depression law. Remember that adding a solute to a specific solvent would decrease the freezing point of a solvent. This is the reason why we add ionic salts, NaCl, to snow in order to make it melt. Knowledge of the fact that 1 mol of NaCl, an ionic compound, dissociates into 2 mol of ions, sodium and chloride, yields us a van 't Hoff factor of 2 rather than 1 for non-electrolytes, molecular compounds. This means the same molality of ionic compounds would produce a twice larger decrease in the freezing point of a solvent;
  • an example for ionic naming is more trivial. Remember the difference between, say, calcium and calcium cation. Sometimes we may read that mineral water is full of calcium. Having chemical knowledge of ionic compound naming would lead us to a conclusion that this is wrong! Mineral water doesn't have any calcium in it, we don't see any metal in mineral water. However, mineral water contains calcium cations, Ca^{2+} and not Ca.

The alternative pathways of photosynthesis using the c4 or cam systems are said to be compromises. why?
frosja888 [35]
 It is because C4 compromises on water loss and CAM compromises on photorespiration. and Both minimize photorespiration but expend more ATP during carbon fixation.
