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%

Identify some other substances (besides KCl) that might give a positive test for chloride upon addition of AgNO3. do you think i
nlexa [21]

Answer:

-The other substances that give a positive test with AgNO3 are other chlorides present, iodides and bromide.

-It is reasonable to exclude iodides and bromides but it is not reasonable to exclude other chlorides

Explanation:

In the qualitative determination of halogen ions, silver nitrate solution(AgNO3) is usually used. Now, various halide ions will give various colours of precipitate when mixed with with silver nitrate. For example, chlorides(Cl-) normally yield a white precipitate, bromides(Br-) normally yield a cream precipitate while iodides (I-) normally yield a yellow precipitate. Thus, all these ions or some of them may be present in the system.

With that being said, if other chlorides are present, they will also yield a white precipitate just like KCl leading to a false positive test for KCl. However, since other halogen ions yield precipitates of different colours, they don't lead to a false test for KCl. Thus, we can exclude other halides from the tendency to give us a false positive test for KCl but not other chlorides.

BEST GETS BRAINLIEST!!

Gee.  I'll have to guess at what's "commonly thought".

One thing is the scale.  Nobody has an accurate picture of the scale in
his head, because we never see a true-scale drawing.  THAT's because
it's almost impossible to draw one on paper.

Example:
Shrink the solar system and everything in it so that the Sun
is the size of a quarter (the 25¢ coin).
Then:
-- The Earth is in orbit around the sun, 8.6 feet from it. 
That's close enough that you might think you could find the
shrunken Earth.  Unfortunately, it's only 0.009 inch in diameter.

-- The shrunken Jupiter is a 'huge' gas giant almost 0.1 inch in diameter.
It's orbiting the sun, about 45 feet away from it.

-- The shrunken Uranus is another gas giant, about 0.035 inch in diameter.
It's orbiting the sun, about 165 feet away from it.

-- The nearest star outside of the solar system is 441 MILES away !
On the same shrunken scale !
And there's NOTHING between here and there !  

I think that's the biggest point to make about the REAL solar system ...
its utter emptiness.  With the sun reduced to something you can hold
in your hand, the planets are the size of grains of sand, with hundreds
of feet of nothingness between them.

Same for its mass:  The solar system is approximately nothing but a star.
That's it.  A star, with some dust and some gas around it, and here and there
in the neighborhood a microscopic pebble or a chip of mineral.  But mostly
it's nothing but a star ... if you went around and gathered up all that other
rubbish in the same bag and called it a part of the same solar system, the
sun would still have more than 99% of the total mass, and the bag would
hold less than 1% of it.

Book ... It's getting late, Hillary's fading, and that's all I can think of.
I hope this much is some help.
