What is the mass percent of oxygen in sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3)?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alenkasestr [34]3 years ago
8 0
The answer is 57.14%.

First we need to calculate molar mass of <span>NaHCO3. Molar mass is mass of 1 mole of a substance. It is the sum of relative atomic masses, which are masses of atoms of the elements.

Relative atomic mass of Na is 22.99 g
</span><span>Relative atomic mass of H is 1 g
</span><span>Relative atomic mass of C is 12.01 g
</span><span>Relative atomic mass of O is 16 g.
</span>
Molar mass of <span>NaHCO3 is:
22.99 g + 1 g + 12.01 g + 3 </span>· <span>16 g = 84 g

Now, mass of oxygen in </span><span>NaHCO3 is:
3 </span>· 16 g = 48 g

mass percent of oxygen in <span>NaHCO3:
48 g </span>÷ 84 g · 100% = 57.14%

Therefore, <span>the mass percent of oxygen in sodium bicarbonate is 57.14%.</span>

How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3?
Alina [70]

Answer:

2000pound

Explanation:

Manganese metal is produced from the manganese(III) oxide, Mn2O3, which is found in manganite, a manganese ore. The manganese is reduced from its +3 oxidation state in Mn2O3 to the zero oxidation state of the uncharged metal by reacting the Mn2O3 with a reducing agent such as aluminum or carbon. How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3? (1 ton = 2000 pounds)

About 40 different substances called organophosphorus compounds are registered in the United States as insecticides. They are considered less damaging to the environment than some other insecticides because they breakdown relatively rapidly in the environment. The first of these organophosphorus insecticides to be produced was tetraethyl pyrophosphate, TEPP, which is 33.11% carbon, 6.95% hydrogen, 38.59% oxygen, and 21.35% phosphorus. It has a molecular mass of 290.190.
