Finding percent composition is fairly easy. You only need to divide the mass of an element by the total mass of the compound. We can do this one element at a time.
First, let's find the total mass by using the masses of the elements given on the periodic table.
7 x 12.011 (mass of Carbon) = 84.077
5 x 1.008 (mass of Hydrogen) = 5.04
3 x 14.007 (mass of Nitrogen) = 42.021
6 x 15.999 (mass of Oxygen) = 95.994
Add all of those pieces together.
84.077 + 5.04 + 42.021 + 95.994 = 227.132 g/mol is your total. Since we also just found the mass of each individual element, the next step will be very easy.
Carbon: 84.077 / 227.132 = 0.37016 ≈ 37.01 %
Hydrogen: 5.04 / 227.132 = 0.022189 ≈ 2.22 %
Nitrogen: 42.021 / 227.132 = 0.185 ≈ 18.5 %
Oxygen: 95.994 / 227.132 = 0.42263 ≈ 42.26 %
You can check your work by making sure they add up to 100%. The ones I just found add up to 99.99, which is close enough. A small difference (no more than 0.03 in my experience) is just a matter of where you rounded your numbers.
The temperature stays the same when a solid changes to a liquid because energy is required to break the forces between particles of water therefore changing the state of matter and separating the particles away from each other.
When a liquid boils, the energy is needed by the particles to escape the surface of the liquid and boil. Instead of raising the temperature, the energy goes into the particles' kinetic energy store so it has enough speed to escape the surface of the liquid.
Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Shape
The formula for water is H-O-H.
The central O atom has four electron pairs around it. They try to get as far from each other as possible, so they point toward the corners of a tetrahedron.
Only two of the pairs have a hydrogen atom attached, so water has a bent shape. The H-O-H bond angle is about 104°.
(b) Chemical magnet
The O atom has a greater attraction than H for the shared electrons in the O-H bonds, so the electrons spend more time near the O.
This gives the O atom a partial negative charge (pink in the diagram) and the H atoms a partial positive charge (blue).
The water molecule acts like a chemical magnet because its negative end attracts the positive ends of other molecules, while its positive ends attract the negative ends of other molecules.
To balance equations you have to have same number of atoms on both sides of the equation just multiply with a suitable digit
