Answer:

Fe_3PO_4

Explanation:

To do this, we find the moles of each element. We get around 0.155 moles of Fe, 0.051 moles of P, and 0.206 moles of O. We then divide each one by the smallest one (which is 0.051 moles of P). We then get 3 for Fe, 1 for P, and 4 for O. This correlates to the empirical formula of the compound.

A 52.0-mL volume of 0.35 M CH3COOH (Ka=1.8×10−5) is titrated with 0.40 M NaOH. Calculate the pH after the addition of 23.0 mL of
Rus_ich [418]
<span> 52.0ml of 0.35M CH3COOH : 0.052 L(0.35M) = .0182 mol of CH3COOH. 
</span>
<span>31.0ml of 0.40M NaOH : .031 L(0.40M) = .0124 mol of NaOH. 
</span>
<span>After the  reaction, .0124 Mol CH3COO- is generated and .058 mol CH3COOH is left un-reacted. The concentration would be 12.4/V and 5.8/V, respectively. Therefore:

Imagine a chemist is in the lab and trying to make some chemical reactions happen. In one reaction she reacts chemicals in an exothermic reaction and there is an increase in entropy. A second chemical reaction she is trying to run is endothermic and there is a decrease in entropy. Which of the two reactions is more likely to occur and why?

Why do minerals with metallic bonds conduct electricity so well?
Roman55 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Because metallic bonding involves delocalized electrons. It is described as a "<em>sea of electrons</em>", because the electrons are not confined around the nucleus of metal atoms, but they are delocalized: thay can be located in one nucleus and then in another neighbor atom. Thus, the electrons have more freedom to move from one part of the metal to another and electricity is well conducted.

A ball was massed in a dish. The total mass was 15.6 grams. Treball was placed in a
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

14.57g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of dish + ball  = 15.6g

Initial volume of water in the cylinder  = 26.7mL  

Final volume of water in the cylinder  = 38.9mL

Mass of dish = ?

Unknown

Mass of the ball = ?

Solution;

 Since the mass of ball and dish is 15.6g,

 Mass of the ball  =Mass of ball + dish  - mass of the dish

 Insert the parameters and solve;

 Mass of the ball  = 15.6g  - 1.03g  = 14.57g
