Answer:

1. Percent composition of Al = 13.423 %

Percent composition of Zn = 28.02 %

Percent composition of Cl = 30.6 %

Percent composition of O = 41.3 %

3. The empirical formula is C₅O₁₆

4. Molecular Formula= P₄O₆

Explanation:

Part first :

Data Given

Formula of the Molecule = Al₂ (CrO₄)₃

% of Al₂ = ?

> First of all find the atomic masses of each component in a molecule

For Al₂ (CrO₄)₃ atomic masses are given below

Al = 27 g/mol

Cr = 52 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

> Then find the total masses of each component

2 atoms of Al = 27 g/mol x 2

= 54 g/mol

3 atoms of Cr = 52 g/mol x 3

= 156 g/mol

12 atoms of O = 16 g/mol x 12

= 192 g/mol

> find total Molar Mass of Molecule:

Molar Mass of Al₂ (CrO₄)₃ = [27x2 + 52x3 + 16x12]

Molar Mass of Al₂ (CrO₄)₃ = 402

Now to find the mass percent of Al

Formula used to find the Mass percent of a component

Percent composition of Al = mass of Al in Molecula / molar mass of Al₂(CrO₄)₃ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of Al = 54 (g/mol) / 402 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of Al = 13.423 %

Part 2

Data Given

Formula of the Molecule = Zn(ClO₃)₂

% Zn = ?

% Cl = ?

% O = ?

> First of all find the atomic masses of each component in a molecule

For Zn(ClO₃)₂ atomic masses are given below

Zn = 65 g/mol

Cl = 35.5 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

> Then find the total masses of each component

1 atoms of Zn= 65 g/mol x 1

= 65 g/mol

2 atoms of Cl = 35.5 g/mol x

= 71 g/mol

6 atoms of O = 16 g/mol x 6

= 96 g/mol

> find total Molar Mass of Molecule:

Molar Mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ = [65x1 + 35.5x2 + 16x6]

Molar Mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ = 232g/mol

Now to find the mass percent of of each component one by one

1. Formula used to find the mass percent of Zn

Percent composition of Zn= mass of Zn in Molecular / molar mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of Zn = 65(g/mol) / 232 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of Zn = 28.02 %

-------------------

2. Formula used to find the mass percent of Cl

Percent composition of Cl = mass of Cl in Molecular / molar mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of Cl = 71 (g/mol) / 232 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of Cl = 30.6 %

---------------------

3. Formula used to find the mass percent of O

Percent composition of O = mass of O in Molecular / molar mass of Zn(ClO₃)₂ x 100%

Put the values

Percent composition of O = 96 (g/mol) / 232 (g/mol) x 100%

Percent composition of O = 41.3 %

Part 3:

Data Given

Percentage of C = 27.3 %

Percentage of O = 72.7 %

Emperical Formula of the compound = ?

Solution:

So the compound has 27.3 % C and 72% O

First, find the mass of each of the elements in 100 g of the Compound.

C = 27.3 g

O = 72 g

Now find how many moles are there for each element in 100 g of compound

For this molar mass are required

That is

C = 12 g/mol

O = 16 g/mol

Formula Used

mole of C = mass of C / Molar mass of C

mole of C = 27.3 / 12 g/mol

mole of C = 2.275

Formula Used

mole of O = mass of O / Molar mass of O

mole of O = 72g / 16 g/mol

mole of O = 7.2

Divide each one by the smallest number of moles

C = 2.275 / 2.275

C = 1

O = 7.2 / 2.275

O = 3.2

Multiply the mole fraction to a number to get the whole number.

C = 1 x 5 = 5

O = 3.2 x 5 = 16

So, the empirical formula is C₅O₁₆

Part 4

Data Given

Percentage of P= 56.38 %

Percentage of O = 43.62%

Molar Mass = 219.9g

Molecular Formula of the compound = ?

Solution:

First, find the mass of each of the elements in 100 g of the Compound.

Mass of P= 56.38g

Mass of O = 43.62g

Now find how many moles are there for each element in 100 g of compound

find the moles in total compounds

Formula Used

mole of P = mass of / Molar mass of P

mole of P = 56.38 g / 31 g/mol

mole of P = 1.818

Formula Used

mole of O = mass of O / Molar mass of O

mole of O = 43. 62 / 16 g/mol

mole of O = 2.7262

Now

first find the Emperical formula

Divide each one by the smallest number of moles

P = 1.818 /1.818

P= 1

for oxygen

O = 2.7262 / 1.818

O = 1.5

Multiply the mole fraction to a number to get the whole number.

P = 1 x 2 = 2

O = 1.5 x 2 = 3

So, the empirical formula is P₂O₃

Now

Find molar mass of the empirical formula P₂O₃

2 (31) + 3 (16) = 62 + 48 = 110

Now find that how many empirical units are in a molecular unit.

(219.9 g/mol) / ( 110 g/mol) = empirical units per molecular unit

empirical units per molecular unit = 1.999 =2

A here we get two empirical units in a molecular unit,

So the molecular formula is:

2 (P₂O₃) = P₄O₆

Predict whether the following reactions will be exothermic or endothermic.

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃ exothermic

B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g) exothermic

C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) endothermic

D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) exothermic

Explanation:

The question says predict not calculate. So you have to use your chemistry knowledge, experience and intuition.

A. N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) -----> 2NH₃ is exothermic because the Haber process gives out energy

B. S(g) + O₂(g) --------> SO₂(g) is exothermic because it is a combustion. The majority, if not all, combustion give out energy.

C. 2H₂O(g) --------> 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) is endothermic because it is the reverse reaction of the combustion of hydrogen. If the reverse reaction is exothermic then the forward reaction is endothermic

D. 2F(g) ---------> F₂(g) is exothermic because the backward reaction is endothermic. Atomisation is always an endothermic reaction so the forward reaction is exothermic

State the five the five basic assumptions of the kinetic-molecular theory.

Ivan

Answer:

The primary assumptions are as follows:

Any gas is a collection of innumerable number of minuscule particles which are known as molecules according to Avogadro’s law.

There are no forces of attraction or repulsion among the particles or between the molecules and the surroundings.

The gas particles are always at straight, rapid, fast & random motion resulting in inevitable collisions with other particles and the surroundings that changes direction of motion.

Since the particle are spherical, solid and elastic the collisions involving them are elastic in nature as well i.e their kinetic energy is conserved even after collisions.

The total kinetic energy of the particles is proportional to the absolute temperature.

In some books two other assumptions are given as well:

1. The size or area of each particle is negligible compared to that of the container.

2. Pressure of gas is result of the continuous clash of the particles with the wall of the container.

The simplest kinetic model is based on the assumptions that: (1) the gas is composed of a large number of identical molecules moving in random directions, separated by distances that are large compared with their size; (2) the molecules undergo perfectly elastic collisions (no energy loss) with each other and with the walls of the container, but otherwise do not interact; and (3) the transfer of kinetic energy between molecules is heat. These simplifying assumptions bring the characteristics of gases within the range of mathematical treatment.

Such a model describes a perfect gas and is a reasonable approximation to a real gas, particularly in the limit of extreme dilution and high temperature. Such a simplified description, however, is not sufficiently precise to account for the behaviour of gases at high densities.

Based on the kinetic theory, pressure on the container walls can be quantitatively attributed to random collisions of molecules the average energy of which depends upon the gas temperature. The gas pressure can therefore be related directly to temperature and density. Many other gross properties of the gas can be derived, such as viscosity, thermal and electrical conductivity, diffusion, heat capacity, and mobility. In order to explain observed deviations from perfect gas behaviour, such as condensation, the assumptions must be appropriately modified. In doing so, considerable insight has been gained as to the nature of molecular dynamics and interactions.

How to find how many electrons are in an element

Murljashka [212]

Explanation:

1) Locate the atomic number in the upper left corner of the square. The atomic number will tell you the number of protons

2) In a neutral state, the element will contain the same number of protons as it will electrons.

--> Boron (B) has an atomic number of 5, so it has 5 protons.

--> Having 5 protons (+1 charge each) means to be balanced, it must have 5 electrons (-1 charge each)

However, what if it's not in a neutral state?

If it's not in a neutral state, it will look something like this:

Ca ^ 2+

Btw, the "^" means that it will be written like it's an exponent. That confuses people sometimes.

Anyways, the "2+" means it's an ion with a positive charge of 2. For us to have a positive charge, it means it's lost two electrons (cause electrons are negative, so taking them away means we are left with a more positive charge).

To get the number of remaining electrons, subtract the 2 from the atomic mass. In this case, that would be 20.

20 - 2 = 18 electrons

Another example:

N ^3-

Atomic Number: 7

7 + 3 = 10 electrons.

Why did I add here instead of subtracting? It's cause the 3- means we have added electrons, resulting in the ion having a negative charge. It's got more electrons than usual.

Hopefully this helps a bit.
