Answer:

43.18%

Explanation:

To calculate the percentage by mass of oxygen in the compound, multiply the atomic mass of oxygen by two. This is done because the compound contains two moles of oxygen.

16*2=32

32 divided by the formula mass as given in the question multiplied by 100 gives 43.18%

A 111.6 gram sample of iron (MW=55.8) was heated from 0 degrees C to 20 degrees C. It absorbed 1004 Joules of energy. What is th
qwelly [4]
Use the equation q=ncΔT.
q= heat absorbed our released (in this case 1004J)
n= number of moles of sample ( in this case 2.08 mol)
c=molar heat capacity 
ΔT=change in temperature (in this case 20°C)
You have to rewrite the equation for c.
c=q/nΔT
c=1004J/(2.08mol x 20°C)
c=24.1 J/mol°C

Use the periodic table to answer the questions below.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
The three of them have the same amount of electrons, so we can’t determine the right one on that ground. As you might know, Pauli said that electrons are always in the position of the lowest energy. So the first situation is impossible because there is a free place available that takes less energy. Then the 3rd situation is nor possible because if one electron has a different spin than the others, there is a magnetic obstruction that be prevented if the spin changes. This means that the second situation is the right one.

If a reaction occurs when a piece of metal is placed in a solution, what can you conclude about the solution?
USPshnik [31]
Hello!

If a reaction occurs when a piece of metal is placed in a solution, you can conclude that the solution is <span>probably acidic because bases rarely react with metals.

Strong Acids, like HCl, react with metals to produce salts and release gaseous hydrogen (H</span>₂) which is evidenced by the generation of bubbles in the solution. The general chemical equation for this kind of reactions for a metal M and an acid HA is:

2M(s) + 2HA(aq) → 2MA(aq) + H₂(g)

Have a nice day!
