Answer:

0.99 kg O₂

1.9 kg SO₂

Explanation:

Let's consider the reaction between sulfur and oxygen to form sulfur dioxide.

S + O₂ → SO₂

The mass ratio of S to O₂ is 32.07:32.00. The mass of oxygen required to react with 1 kg of sulfur is:

1 kg S × (32.00 kg O₂/32.07 kg S) = 0.998 kg O₂

The mass ratio of S to SO₂ is 32.07:64.07. The mass of sulfur dioxide formed when 1 kg of sulfur is burned is:

1 kg S × (64.07 kg SO₂/32.07 kg S) = 1.99 kg SO₂

Determine the percent water in MgSO4*7H20?
Semmy [17]

Answer:

\% H_2O=51.2\%

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the percent water is computed by dividing the amount of water by the total mass of the hydrate; we infer we first need the molar mass of water and that of the hydrate as shown below:

MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}=120.36 g/mol+7*18.02g/mol\\\\MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}=246.5g/mol

Thus, the percent water is:

\% H_2O=\frac{7*MM_{H_2O}}{MM_{MgSO_4* 7H_2O}} *100\%\\\\

So we plug in to obtain:

\% H_2O=\frac{7*18.02}{246.5} *100\%\\\\\% H_2O=51.2\%

Best regards!

Part A Which acid in each of the following pairs has the stronger conjugate base? Match the words in the left column to the appr
vichka [17]

Answer:

HF

H₂S

H₂CO₃

NH₄⁺

Explanation:

<em>Which acid in each of the following pairs has the stronger conjugate base?</em>

According to Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, <em>the weaker an acid, the stronger its conjugate acid</em>. Especially for weak acids, pKa gives information about the strength of such acid. <em>The higher the pKa, the weaker the acid.</em>

<em />

  • Of the acids HCl or HF, the one with the stronger conjugate base is HF because it is a weak acid.
  • Of the acids H₂S or HNO₂, the one with the stronger conjugate base is    H₂S  because it is a weaker acid. pKa (H₂S) = 7.04 > pKa (HNO₂) = 3.39
  • Of the acids H₂CO₃ or HClO₄, the one with the stronger conjugate base is H₂CO₃ because it is a weak acid.
  • Of the acids HF or NH₄⁺, the one with the stronger conjugate base is NH₄⁺ because it is a weaker acid. pKa (HF) = 3.17 < pKa (NH₄⁺) = 9.25

A sample with a molar mass of 34.00 g/mol is found to consist of 5.9783% Hydrogen and 94.0217% oxygen. Find it’s molecular formu
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The formula is H202 (hydrogen peroxide, known as hydrogen peroxide)

Explanation:

100%----34g

5, 9783%---X= (5, 9783%x 34g)/100% =2 g

1g---1 atom of H

2g----x= 2g x 1 atom of H/1g = 2 atom of H

100%----34g

94, 0217%---X= (94,0217%x 34g)/100% =32 g

16g---1 atom of 0

32g----x= 32g x 1 atom of 0/16g = 2 atom of 0
