Calculate the mass of aluminum in 500 g of Al(C2H3O2)3
Luden [163]
Answer: 66.2 g

Explanation:

1) The ratio of Al in the molecule is  1 mol to 1 mol .

2) The mass of 1 mol of molecules of Al (CH2H3O2)3 is the molar mass of the compound.

3) You calculate the molar mass of the compound using the atomic masses of each atom, in this way:

Al: 27 g/mol
C: 2 * 3 * 12 g/mol = 72 g/mol
H: 3 * 3 * 1 g/mol = 9 g/mol
O: 2 * 3 * 16 g/mol = 96 g/mol

Molar mass = 27 g/mol + 72 g/mol + 9 g/mol + 96 g/mol = 204 g/mol

4) Set a proportion:

    27 g/mol                x
-------------------- =  ----------
   204 g/mol            500 g

5) Solve for x:

x = 500 g * 27 g/mol / 204 g/mol = 66.2 g

pyrite is a mineral composed of 46.5 mass % iron and 53.5 mass % sulfur. determine the empirical formula for calcocite.
padilas [110]

The empirical formula for pyrite is FeS2.

HOW TO CALCULATE EMPIRICAL FORMULA:

  • The empirical formula represents the simplest whole number ratio of constituents element of a compound. The empirical formula of pyrite can be calculated as follows:

46.5 mass % Fe = 46.5g of Fe

53.5 mass % S = 53.5g of S

  • Next, we divide each element's mass value by its molar mass

Fe = 46.5g ÷ 56g/mol = 0.83mol

S = 53.5g ÷ 32g/mol = 1.67mol

  • Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (0.83mol)

Fe = 0.83mol ÷ 0.83 = 1

S = 1.67mol ÷ 0.83 = 2.014

Approximately, the ratio of Fe to S is 1:2. Therefore, the empirical formula of pyrite is FeS2.

Force = 2.32 N<br> Acceleration = 0.19 m/s2<br> Mass= ?
Mkey [24]

mass = 12.2 kg

Explanation:

To find the mass we use the following formula (Newton's Second Law of Motion):

force = mass × acceleration

mass = force / acceleration

mass = 2.32 N / 0.19 m/s²

mass = 12.2 kg

Which two substances are covalent compounds? * C6H12O6(s) and KI(s) C6H12O6(s) and HCl(g) KI(s) and NaCl(s) NaCl(s) and HCl(g)
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as the compound in which sharing of electrons take place between the combining atoms. Generally, when two or more non-metals chemically combine together the it will lead to the formation of a covalent compound.

For example, C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} and HCl is also a covalent compound.

And, a compound in which transfer of electrons occur between the combining atoms is known as an ionic compound. Whenever, a metal chemically combines with a non-metal then it will always lead to the formation of an ionic compound.

For example, KI is an ionic compound.

Thus, we can conclude that C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} and HCl are the two substances which are covalent compounds.
