Answer:

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22 phosphorus atoms

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

tetraphosphorus decoxide = P4O10

Molar mass of P4O10 = 283.89 g/mol

Mass of P4O10 = 4.5 grams

Number of Avogadro = 6.022 * 10^23 / mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of P4O10

Moles P4O10 = mass P4O10 / molar mass P4O10

Moles P4O10 = 4.5 grams / 283.89 g/mol

Moles = 0.016 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of P

For 1 mol P4O10 we have 4 moles of phosphorus

For 0.016 moles P4O10 we have 4*0.016 = 0.064 moles P

Step 4: Calculate number of P atoms

Number of P atoms = moles P * number of Avogadro

Number of P atoms = 0.064 moles * 6.022*10^23

Number of P atoms = 3.85 * 10^22 atoms

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22 phosphorus atoms

A chemistry student weighs out 0.027 kg of an unknown solid compound X and adds it to 550. mL of distilled water at 30.° C. Afte

QveST [7]

Answer:

1. Yes

2.The solubility of X is 34.55g/L

Explanation:

Solubility of solute refers to how readily a solute will dissolve in a solvent at a particular temperature. Its the amount of moles or grams required to saturate 1dm $^{3}$ or 1 Litre of water.

From the problem, when the liquid was drained off and amount of X which didn't dissolve was measured, it weighed 0.008kg, this means out of 0.027kg, 0.027-0.008 actually dissolved

= 0.019kg*1000 = 19g.

if 19g is required to saturate 550mL at 30°C,

then $\frac{19*1000}{550}$ will saturate 1L

= 34.545g will saturate 1Litre

The solubility thus is 34.55g/L

A reaction of importance in the formation of smog is that between ozone and nitrogen monoxide described by O 3 ( g ) + NO ( g )

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

(a) 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s

(b) 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹

Explanation:

(a) The reaction is:

O₃(g) + NO(g) → O₂(g) + NO₂(g) (1)

The reaction rate of equation (1) is given by:

$rate = k*[O_{3}][NO]$ (2)

k: is the rate constant of reaction = 3.91x10⁶ M⁻¹.s⁻¹

[O₃]₀ = 2.35x10⁻⁶ M

[NO]₀ = 7.74x10⁻⁵ M

Hence, to find the inital reacion rate we will use equation (2):

$rate = k*[O_{3}]_{0}[NO]_{0} = 3.91 \cdot 10^{6} M^{-1}s^{-1}*2.35\cdot 10^{-6} M*7.74 \cdot 10^{-5} M = 7.11 \cdot 10^{-4} M/s$

Therefore, the inital reaction rate is 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s

(b) The number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is:

t = 1 h

V = 1 L

$\frac{\Delta[NO_{2}]}{\Delta t} = rate$

$\frac{\Delta[NO_{2}]}{\Delta t} = 7.11 \cdot 10^{-4} M/s*\frac{3600 s}{1 h} = 2.56 mol.L^{-1}.h{-1}$

Hence, the number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹

I hope it helps you!
