10g of an oxide of copper contains 8.882g of copper. what is empirical formula of the copper oxide

Chemistry
1 answer:
-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Mass of copper oxide: 10g

Mass of copper: 8.882g

Mass of oxygen: 1.118g

                                                                <u> Cu</u>               <u>O</u>

                                                              8.882           1.118

Divide by A_{r}                                   8.882÷63.5       1.118÷16

                                                               0.14             0.07

Divide by the lowest number          0.14/0.07       0.07/0.07

                                                                  2                  1

Check the ratio now, Cu has 2 atoms and O has 1 atom .

The formula is Cu_{2} O

Match each description below with the name of the local wind system being described. warm, dry downslope wind affecting Southern
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

warm, dry downslope wind affecting Southern California - Santa Ana wind

a seasonally changing wind- monsoon

wind blowing from a valley up a mountain slope - valley breeze

generated by cold thunderstorm downdrafts - haboob

Explanation:

The Santa Ana wind occurs in early autumn. They bring hot and dry weather to areas around the South-West coast. They move at high speeds, affecting most parts of Southern California.

Monsoon is a seasonal wind that blows across Southern Asia. It usually blows in summer. It is a a seasonally changing wind.

Valley breeze is an example of convection current in nature. It is produced by rapid warming of the valley floor leading to the expansion of air making it to flow up the slopes. At night, radiation from the surface cools the slopes. This leads to the rise of cooler and denser air which drains into the valley.

Haboob is generated by cold thunderstorm downdrafts. It is associated with large sandstorms and dust storms.

A polar covalent bond will form between which two atoms?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

 

                Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent

                

                Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent 

            

                Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic

 

For Be and F,

                    E.N of Fluorine          =   3.98

                    E.N of Beryllium        =   1.57

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                2.41          (Ionic Bond)


For H and Cl,

                    E.N of Chorine           =   3.16

                    E.N of Hydrogen        =   2.20

                                                   ________

                    E.N Difference                0.96          (Polar Covalent Bond)


For Na and O,

                    E.N of Oxygen          =   3.44

                    E.N of Sodium          =   0.93

                                                       ________

                    E.N Difference                2.51          (Ionic Bond)


For F and F,

                    E.N of Fluorine          =   3.98

                    E.N of Fluorine          =   3.98

                                                        ________

                    E.N Difference                0.00         (Non-Polar Covalent Bond)

Result:

           A polar covalent bond is formed between Hydrogen and Chlorine atoms.

Use standard enthalpies of formation to calculate Δ H ∘ rxn for each reaction. MISSED THIS? Read Section 7.9; Watch KCV 7.9, IWE
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Standard Heat of Reaction 1 = -136.2 kJ/mol

Standard Heat of Reaction 2 = -41.166 kJ/mol

Standard Heat of Reaction 3 = -136.07 kJ/mol

Standard Heat of Reaction 4 = 279.448kJ/mol

Explanation:

C₂H₄ (g) + H₂ (g) → C₂H₆ (g)

CO (g) + H₂O (g) → H₂ (g) + CO₂ (g)

3NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → 2HNO₃ (aq) + NO (g)

Cr₂O₃ (s) + 3CO (g) → 2Cr (s) + 3CO₂ (g)

The required standard heat of formation for each of the reactants and product above, as obtained from literature is listed below.

C₂H₄ (g), 52.5 kJ/mol

H₂ (g), 0 kJ/mol

C₂H₆ (g), -83.7 kJ/mol

CO (g), -110.525 kJ/mol

H₂O (g), -241.818 kJ/mol

H₂ (g), 0 kJ/mol

CO₂ (g), -393.509 kJ/mol

NO₂ (g), 33.2 kJ/mol

H₂O (l), -285.8 kJ/mol

HNO₃ (aq), -206.28 kJ/mol

NO (g), 90.29 kJ/mol

Cr₂O₃ (s), -1128.4 kJ/mol

CO (g), -110.525 kJ/mol

Cr (s), 0 kJ/mol

CO₂ (g), -393.509 kJ/mol

Note that

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

C₂H₄ (g) + H₂ (g) → C₂H₆ (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (1×-83.7) = -83.7 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (1×52.5) + (1×0) = 52.5 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -83.7 - 52.5 = -136.2 kJ/mol

CO (g) + H₂O (g) → H₂ (g) + CO₂ (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (1×0) + (1×-393.509) = -393.509 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (1×-110.525) + (1×-241.818) = -352.343 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -393.509 - (-352.343) = -41.166 kJ/mol

3NO₂ (g) + H₂O (l) → 2HNO₃ (aq) + NO (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (2×-206.28) + (1×90.29) = -322.27 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (3×33.2) + (1×-285.8) = -186.2 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -322.27 - (-186.2) = -136.07 kJ/mol

Cr₂O₃ (s) + 3CO (g) → 2Cr (s) + 3CO₂ (g)

ΔH∘(rxn) = ΔH∘(products) - ΔH∘(reactants)

ΔH∘(products) = (2×0) + (3×-393.509) = -1,180.527 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(reactants) = (1×-1128.4) + (3×-110.525) = -1,459.975 kJ/mol

ΔH∘(rxn) = -1,180.527 - (-1,459.975) = 279.448 kJ/mol

Hope this Helps!!!
