Answer:

20.11% of oxygen

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2CuO ⇒ 2Cu + O2

If you have an initial amoung of a sample, thi may be have impurities, so you have to start from products to know what you had at the begining.

to make a relation between reagents and products you need to change the mass to mol, then you can relate them with the molar ratio.

1,098gCu x \frac{1mol Cu}{63.546g Cu} x \frac{2mol CuO}{2molCu} x \frac{1mol O}{1molCuO} x \frac{16gO}{1molO} = 0,276gO

Now you have the initial amount of oxygen, to convert to percent you must divide the mass of oxygen between the mass of the sample and multiply by 100

percent composition of O = \frac{0.276gO}{1.375g sample} *100 = 20.11

An x-ray has a wavelength
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

For electromagnetic waves frequency X wavelength = speed of light

                                                f * 2.2 x 10^-11  = 3 x 10^8  m/s

                                         f = 3 x 10^8 / 2.2 x 10^-11

                                            = 1.36 x 10 ^19

                                             = 1.4 x 10^19   with two significant digits

Starting with 1.5052g of BaCl2•2H2O and excessH2SO4, how many grams of BaSO4 can be formed?
muminat
1.5052g BaCl2.2H2O => 1.5052g / 274.25 g/mol = 0.0054884 mol
=> 0.0054884 mol Ba 
<span>This means that at most 0.0054884 mol BaSO4 can form since Ba is the limiting reagent. </span>
<span>0.0054884 mol BaSO4 => 0.0054884 mol * 233.39 g/mol = 1.2809 g BaSO4</span>

Which of the halide ions (f−, cl−, br−, and i−) is the most stable base? which is the least stable base?
Nezavi [6.7K]
You should take note that the question is about stability. A compound is stable if it does not easily react with other elements. Hence, its reactivity must be low. As you move down the group, reactivity decreases. So, the halide at the very bottom is the least reactive. It would then be logical that the most stable conjugate base is I⁻ and the least stable conjugate base is the most reactive which is F⁻.
