<span>Solving for the percent composition by mass of sulfur. The formula would be: %S = mass of sulfur / mass of compound x 100% Plugging in our data: %S = 32 amu / 120 amu x 100% %S = 0.266666 x 100% %S = 26.66% Rounded off to two significant numbers it will be 27%. Therefore the answer is number 2.</span>

Why is it better to measure the percent change in mass<br> ratherthan just using the change in mass?
never [62]

Answer: The result is presented in proportion which gives a clearer understanding and accurate result.

Explanation: Percentage change in mass is the proportion of the initial mass of a substance changed after sometime. The results is presented as a percentage making it more accurate and can help to give future reference to weight calculations.

Change is Mass is the mass of a substance left after sometime mostly given in grams. It is not as accurate as percentage change in mass. It is generally better to show results in percentage change in mass as it gives a better understanding of what mass of a substance was lost after a given period or after application of energy like Heat or increased temperature.

Identify the Brønsted-Lowry acid, the Brønsted-Lowry base, the conjugate acid, and the conjugate base in each reaction:
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

C5H5N is the base and C5H5NH+ is the conjugate acid

H2O is the acid and OH− is the conjugate base

Explanation:

<u>Hydrogen + is also called a proton</u>

C5H5N is the base because it receives the proton (H+) and C5H5NH+ is its conjugate acid

H2O is the acid  because it gives up the proton and OH− is the conjugate base because it is capable of receiving the proton

Answer:

HNO3 is the acid and NO3- is the conjugate base

H2O is the base and H3O+ is the conjugate acid

Explanation

HNO3 is the acid and NO3− is its conjugate base, capable of receiving a proton

H2O is the base because it receives the proton and H3O+ is a conjugate acid capable of giving up the proton.
