Living organisms contain relatively large amounts of oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and sulfur (thesefive elements are known as the bulk elements), along with sodium, magnesium, potassium, calcium, chlorine, and phosphorus (these six elements are known as macrominerals).

A compound is 80.0% carbon and 20.0% hydrogen by mass. assume you have a 100.-g sample of this compound. the molar mass of the c
ch4aika [34]
Basis of the calculation: 100g
 
For Carbon: 
 Mass of carbon = (100 g)(0.80) = 80 g
  Number of moles of carbon = (80 g)(1 mole / 12g) = 20/3

For Hydrogen:
  Mass of hydrogen = (100 g)(0.20) = 20 g
     Number of moles of hydrogen = (20 g)(1 mole / 1 g) = 20

Translating the answer to the formula of the substance,
     C20/3H20

Dividing the answer,
    CH3

The molar mass of the empirical formula is:
    12 + 3 = 15 g/mol

Since, the molar mass given for the molecular formula is 30.069 g/mol, the molecular equation is,
    C2H6

ANSWER: C2H6

How many grams are in 3.14 moles of PI₃?
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1290 \ g \ PI_3}}

Explanation:

We want to convert from moles to grams, so we must use the molar mass.

<h3>1. Molar Mass</h3>

The molar mass is the mass of 1 mole of a substance. It is the same as the atomic masses on the Periodic Table, but the units are grams per mole (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units (amu).

We are given the compound PI₃ or phosphorus triiodide. Look up the molar masses of the individual elements.

  • Phosphorus (P): 30.973762 g/mol
  • Iodine (I): 126.9045 g/mol

Note that there is a subscript of 3 after the I in the formula. This means there are 3 moles of iodine in 1 mole of the compound PI₃. We should multiply iodine's molar mass by 3, then add phosphorus's molar mass.

  • I₃: 126.9045 * 3=380.7135 g/mol
  • PI₃: 30.973762 + 380.7135 = 411.687262 g/mol

<h3>2. Convert Moles to Grams</h3>

Use the molar mass as a ratio.

\frac {411.687262 \ g \ PI_3}{ 1 \  mol \ PI_3}

We want to convert 3.14 moles to grams, so we multiply by that value.

3.14 \ mol \ PI_3 *\frac {411.687262 \ g \ PI_3}{ 1 \  mol \ PI_3}

The units of moles of PI₃ cancel.

3.14 *\frac {411.687262 \ g \ PI_3}{ 1 }

1292.698 \ g\ PI_3

<h3>3. Round</h3>

The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the tens place.

  • 1292.698

The 2 in the ones place tells us to leave the 9.

1290 \ g \ PI_3

3.14 moles of phosphorous triiodide is approximately equal to <u>1290 grams of phosphorus triodide.</u>
