<span>This question can best be answered using a Periodic Table of Elements. All the elements are listed by their atomic number starting from the top left and moving right and down the table. Starting at element 8, you will find Oxygen with a mass of 15.99 amu, followed by element 9 Fluorine with a mass of 18.99 , element 10 Neon with a mass of 20.18 , element 11 Sodium with a mass of 22.99. Writing them with their symbols you would have; O, F, Ne, Na.</span>
Answer:
So a compound is 52% Zinc(Zn), 9.6% Carbon(C), and 38.4% Oxygen (O). Let’s first start off by assuming that we have 100 g of this compound. This means that we have 52 g of Zinc, 9.6 g of Carbon, and 38.4 g of Oxygen.Zinc = 65.38 g/molCarbon = 12 g/molOxygen = 16 g/molThis means we have:52 g of Zn(1 mol Zn/65.38 g of Zn) ≈0.8 mol of Zn.9.6 g of C(1 mol C/12 g of C) = 0.8 mol of C38.4 g of O(1 mol of O/16 g of O) = 2.4 mol of O.
Explanation:
What we want to do next is divide each element by the common factor of all of them, which is 0.8. In most cases, you divide each element by the element with the least amount of moles. After we divide each by 0.8, you’ll notice you have 1 Zn, 1 C, and 3 O. This gives you the empirical formula of ZnCO3, or Zinc Carbonate.
Explanation:
The molecular formula for Sodium Nitrate is NaNO3. The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole. 1 grams Sodium Nitrate is equal to 0.011765443644878 mole.
Answer:
Carbon or the symbol C has a mass percentage of 42.880% while Oxygen or symbol O has a mass percentage of 57.120%
