In a 100 g sample of iron(III) oxide, how many grams of iron are present?

1 answer:

8 0

The formula of Iron(III) oxide is Fe2O3
In order to calculate the mass of iron in a given sample of iron(III) oxide, we must first know the mass percentage of iron in iron(III) oxide. This is calculated by:
[mass of iron in one mole of iron(III) oxide/ mass of one mole of iron(III) oxide] * 100
= [(moles of iron * Mr of iron) / (moles of Iron * Mr of Iron + moles of Oxygen * Mr of Oxygen)] * 100
= [(2 * 56) / (2 * 56 + 3 * 16)] * 100
= (112 / 160) * 100
= 70%
Thus, in a 100g sample, the weight of iron will be:
100 * 70%
= 70 grams

Which of the following statements is incorrect? Group of answer choices The product of wavelength and frequency of electromagnet

morpeh [17]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct.

Explanation:

It is known that energy is directly proportional to frequency.

Mathematically, $E \propto \nu$

or, E = $h \times \nu$ ............ (1)

where, E = energy

h = Plank's constant

$\nu$ = frequency

This relation shows that higher is the energy then more will be the frequency of electrmagnetic radiation.

Also, $\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}$ ......... (2)

where, c = speed of light

$\lambda$ = wavelength

Therefore, substituting value of $\nu$ from equation (2) into equation (1) as follows.

E = $h \times \nu$

E = $h \times \frac{c}{\lambda}$

This relation shows that higher is the energy then lower will be the wavelength.

Thus, we can conclude that as the energy of a photon increases, its frequency decreases, is incorrect statement.

What kinds of information does a structural formula reveal about the compound it represents

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

In organic chemistry, the structural formula shows the bonding and general layout of the molecule.

Explanation:

It can also help in naming the molecule, as many compounds with the same molecular formula have different structural formulas, for example cycloalkanes and alkenes, or aldehydes and ketones.

It tells us about the constituents of the compound, or in other words, the functional groups present. This enables us to predict what kind of properties the compound has and what kind of reactions it can undergo.

It can also help us determine the stereochemistry (shape and spatial orientation) of the compound. This is especially important in organic chemistry and organic chemstry, since certain important reactions will proceed if and only if a molecule with the right shape is employed.
