How many molecules are present in a sample of carbon dioxide, CO2 with a mass of 168.2?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Always remember that 1 mole is just a way of saying 6.02 x 10^23 molecules. Because this is a huge number it is easier to use moles. It corresponds nicely ecause 12 grams of carbon is one mole (note the Mr of carbon is 12) and 44g of CO2 is one mole of CO2 (note that CO2 has Mr 44).  You need to use the equation n = m/Mr . In words this is: number of moles = the mass (in grams) divided by the Molar Mass.  You can think of this as the number of moles is equal to the mass of the amount you have divided by the mass of one mole (the molar mass).   To find the molar mass of CO2 you need to use the periodic table.   12 + 16 + 16 = 44  So you need to do:  168.2 divided by 44 which will give you number of moles.

Decide which element probably has a boiling point most and least similar to the boiling point of cesium.
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Take a look at the attachment below

Explanation:

Take a look at the periodic table. As you can see, Rubidium is the closest element to Cesium, and happens to have the closest boiling point to Cesium, with only a difference of about 30 degrees.

Respectively, you would think that fluorine should have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, considering it is the farthest away from the element out of the 4 given. This is not an actual rule, there are no fixed trends of boiling points in the periodic table, there are some but overall the trends vary. However in this case fluorine does have the least similarity to Cesium with respect to it's boiling point, a difference of about 1,546.6 degrees.

<em>Hope that helps!</em>

What is the scaling factor if the molar mass of
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The scaling factor is 5.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the scaling factor is defined as the ratio of the molar mass of the molecular formula (complete) to the empirical formula (simplified), it is possible to compute it for the empirical formula of CH2O whose molar mass is 30 g/mol (12+2+16) as shown below:

sf=150/30=5

Therefore, we can also infer that the molecular formula would be:

C_5H_1_0O_5

Best regards!
