Answer:
9.80 g
Explanation:
The molecular mass of the atoms mentioned in the question is as follows -
S = 32 g / mol
F = 19 g / mol
The molecular mass of the compound , SF₆ = 32 + ( 6 * 19 ) = 146 g / mol
The mass of 6 F = 6 * 19 = 114 g /mol .
The percentage of F in the compound =
mass of 6 F / total mass of the compound * 100
Hence ,
The percentage of F in the compound = 114 g /mol / 146 g / mol * 100
78.08 %
Hence , from the question ,
In 12.56 g of the compound ,
The grams of F = 0.7808 * 12.56 = 9.80 g
Zinc is a metal. At STP, it exists as solid and is stable as it is. It is an important mineral and is used in many applications like in food, metal and drugs. Zinc can be found in the Earth's crust and also it is present in small amounts in some food.
