Answer:

The empirical formula of the compound would be A_2Z_3

Explanation:

The A ions are in the body center position and at each corner .

There are 8 faces of the cube and 1 corner is also shared by another 7 cubic unit.

Then number of A ion in a cubic unit = 1+\frac{1}{8}\times 8=2

The Z ions are on each face of the cubic unit :

There are 6 faces of the cube and 1 face is shared by another cubic unit.

Then number of Z ions in a cubic unit = \frac{1}{2}\times 6=3

The structural formula of the cubic lattice is  =A_2Z_3

Empirical formula is the simplest chemical formula which depicts the whole number of atoms of each element present in the compound.

The empirical formula of the compound would be A_2Z_3

The mass fractions of a mixture of gases are 15 percent nitrogen, 5 percent helium, 60 percent methane, and 20 percent ethane wi
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass fraction N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : 15 : 5 : 60 : 20

mole fraction  N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : 15/28 : 5/4 : 60/16 : 20/30

mole fraction  N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : .5357  : 1.25 : 3.75 : .67

Total mole fractions = .5357 + 1.25 + 3.75 + 0.67 = 6.2057

mole fraction of N₂ =  .5357 / 6.2057 = .0877

mole fraction of He = 1.25 / 6.2057 = .20

mole fraction of CH₄ = 3.75 / 6.2057 = .6043

mole fraction of C₂H₆ = .67 / 6.2057 = .108

Partial pressure = total pressure x mole fraction

Partial pressure of N₂ = 1200 kPa  x .0877 = 105.24 kPa

Partial pressure of He = 1200 kPa  x .20  = 240 kPa

Partial pressure of CH₄ = 1200 kPa  x  .6043  = 725.16 kPa

Partial pressure of C₂H₆ = 1200 kPa  x .108    = 129.6 kPa

Similarities between pluton and pegmatite
snow_lady [41]
Plutons are large chambers of magma under grown

pegmatites generally form in pluton so it cools slow enough to make the crystals big enough to be classified as pegmatite and not just granite
