Which mass of urea, CO(NH2)2, contains the same mass of nitrogen as 101.1g of potassium nitrate?

1 answer:

4 0

In order to calculate the mass of nitrogen, we must first calculate the mass percentage of nitrogen in potassium nitrate. This is:
% nitrogen = mass of nitrogen / mass of potassium nitrate
% nitrogen = 14 / 101.1 x 100

The mass of nitrogen = % nitrogen x sample mass
= (14 / 101.1) x 101.1
= 14 grams

The molar weight of nitrogen is 14. Each mole of urea contains two moles of nitrogen. Therefore, for there to be 14 grams of nitrogen, there must be 0.5 moles of urea.
Mass of urea = moles urea x molecular weight urea
Mass of urea = 0.5 x 66.06
Mass of urea = 33.03 grams

4. A student started with a 0.032 g sample of copper which he took through the series of reactions described in this experiment.

Elodia [21]

Answer:

$Y=48.6\%$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can consider the following chemical reaction for the oxidation of copper which only occurs at high temperatures:

$2Cu+O_2\rightarrow 2CuO$

In such a way, for 0.032 grams of copper, the following grams of copper (II) oxide (black product) are yielded:

$m_{CuO}=0.032gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.546gCu} *\frac{2molCuO}{2molCu}*\frac{79.546gCuO}{1molCuO} =0.078gCuO$

Therefore, the percent yield is:

$Y=\frac{0.038g}{0.078g}*100\%\\ \\Y=48.6\%$

Best regards.

To make a 450g solution with a mass by mass concentration of 7%, how much salt and water do you need to mix?

Yuri [45]

Explanation:

The given data is:

The mass% of a solution is 7.

Mass of solution =450g

The mass of salt required can be calculated as shown below:

$mass percent =(mass of solute/mass of solution )x100\\$

Substitute the given values in this formula to get the mass of solute that is salt:

$mass percent =(mass of solute/mass of solution )x100\\\\7=\frac{mass of salt}{450g} x100\\=>mass of salt=7x450g /100\\mass of salt=31.5g$

Mass of salt =31.5g

Mass of solvent that is water = 450g-31.5g=418.5g
