Answer:
There is 5.56 g of gold for every 1 g of chlorine
Explanation:
The question is to determine the simplest mass ratio of gold to Chlorine in the compound.
Since the mass of gold in the compound compared to chlorine is 15.39 g for every 2.77 g, the mass of gold per gram of chlorine is given as:
15.39 / 2.77 = 5.56 g of gold to two decimal places
<em>Therefore, for every 5.56 g of gold, there is 1 g of chlorine.</em>
<em>Note : The ratio in which different elements combine by mass to form a compound is given by the law of constant composition which states that, "all pure samples of a particular chemical compound contain the same elements combined in the same proportion by mass.</em>
The mass percent of oxygen is 32.82%.
<h3>What is a noble gas?</h3>
A noble gas is member of group 18 in the periodic table. The members of this group are known not to be reactive and they do not easily form compounds. However, there have been few compounds of the members of group 18 that have been reported.
Let us now calculate the relative molecular mass of xenon tetraoxide.
Xe + 4 (O)
131 + 4(16) = 195
Given that the mass of oxygen in the compound is 64, the mass percent of oxygen in xenon tetroxide is obtained from;
64/195 * 100/1
= 32.82%
