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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alenkasestr [34]3 years ago

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>

Choose the aqueous solution below with the highest boiling point. These are all solutions of nonvolatile solutes and you should
o-na [289]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Choose the aqueous solution that has the highest boiling point. These are all solutions of nonvolatile solutes and you should assume ideal van't Hoff factors where applicable. 0.100 m C6H12O6 0.100 m AlCl3 0.100 m NaCl 0.100 m MgCl2 They all have the same boiling point.

Answer:

AlCl3 0.100 m

Explanation:

Let us remember that the boiling point elevation is given by;

ΔTb = Kb m i

Where;

ΔTb = boiling point elevation

Kb = boiling point constant

m = molality of the solution

i = Van't Hoff factor

We can see from the question that all the solutions possess the same molality, ΔTb now depends on the value of the Van't Hoff factor which in turn depends on the number of particles in solution.

AlCl3 yields four particles in solution, hence ΔTb is highest for AlCl3 . The solution having the highest value of ΔTb also has the highest boiling point.

Which of the following is true about a carbonated soft drink?
Makovka662 [10]
I would say the water is the solvent and carbon dioxide is the solute. Carbon dioxide is usually introduced to water under pressure and then sealed. Once the cap is removed, the carbon dioxide starts to escape since it is then under low pressure. Sometimes, natural groundwater has dissolved carbon dioxide in it but most of our soft drinks have it artificially introduced. Water plus carbon dioxide also form carbonic acid and this can give the tingly sensation on the tongue when drinking soft drinks.
