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>

Classify each of the following as a homogeneous or heterogeneous substance.
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

a). iron ore - is a heterogeneous substance.

b). quartz - is a homogeneous substance.

c). granite - is a heterogeneous substance.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance.

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance.

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance.

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance.

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance.

Explanation:

a). iron ore - is a heterogeneous substance as iron core contains iron and other impurities

b). quartz - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made up of carbon

c). granite - is a heterogeneous substance as it is made up of multiple minerals.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains various substances mixed in it

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance as oil and vinegar itself are different compounds

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance as it only contains one type of molecule

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains water and other minerals

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made of one type of molecule.

Some fertilizer blends contain magnesium nitrate (MgNO3). Suppose that a chemist has 1.24 liters of a 2.13 M solution of magnesi
tamaranim1 [39]

Initial concentration of magnesium nitrate M1 = 2.13 M

Initial volume of magnesium nitrate, MgNO3  V1 = 1.24 L

Final concentration of MgNO3, M2 = 1.60 M

Let the final volume of MgNO3 upon dilution be V2

Formula to use:

M1*V1 = M2*V2

V2 = M1*V1/M2

      = 2.13 M * 1.24 L/1.60 M = 1.65 L

Thus, the final volume of magnesium nitrate solution upon dilution is 1.65 L
