10. When a 13.6 g sample of a compound containing only magnesium and oxygen is decomposed, 5.4 g of oxygen is obtained. What is

the percent of
magnesium in this sample?
• 5.4 g / 13.6 g * 100
• (13.6 g- 5.4g) / 13.6 g x 100
• (13.6 g- 5.4g) x 100
• 5.4g/ (13.6 g-5.4g) x 100

Answer: • (13.6 g- 5.4g) / 13.6 g x 100 is the correct option

Explanation:

Total mass of the sample containing only magnesium and oxygen is 13.6 grams. This means that the sum of the mass of oxygen and the mass of magnesium is 13.6 grams.

On decomposition of the sample, 5.4 g of oxygen is obtained. This means that the mass of magnesium that was obtained would be

13.6 - 5.4 = 8.2 grams of magnesium. Therefore, the percentage of magnesium in this sample would be

8.2/13.6 × 100 = 60.294%

Butane, C4H10, is a component of natural gas that is used as fuel for cigarette lighters. The balanced equation of the complete
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

So the volume will be 2.33 L

Explanation:

The reaction for the combustion is:

2 C₄H₁₀ (g) + 13 O₂ (g) → 8 CO₂ (g) + 10 H₂O (l)

mass of butane to moles (mass / molar mass)

1.4 g / 58 g/mol

= 0.024 moles

2 moles of butane can produce 8 moles of carbon dioxide

0.024 moles of butane must produce (0.024 × 8) /2

= 0.096 moles of CO₂

Now we apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume formed.

P . V = n . R . T

p = 1atm

n = 0.096 mol

R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K

T = 273 + 23 = 296K

V = ?

1atm × V = 0.096 mol × 0.082 L.atm/mol.K × 296K

V = 0.096 mol × 0.082 L.atm/mol.K × 296K / 1atm

= 2.33 L

So the volume will be 2.33 L
