A) Answer is: 51.48% V and 48.52% O.

Ar(V) = 50.94; atomic weight of vanadium.

Ar(O) = 16; atomic weight of oxygen.

Ar(VO₃) = 50.94 + 3 · 16.

Ar(VO₃) = 98.94; molecular weight of vanadium (VI) oxide.

ω(V) = Ar(V) ÷ Ar(VO₃) · 100%.

ω(V) = 51.48%; the percent composition of vanadium.

ω(O) = 100% - 51.48%.

ω(O) = 48.52%; the percent composition of oxygen.

B) Answer is: 67.80% V and 32.20% O.

Ar(V) = 50.94; atomic weight of vanadium.

Ar(O) = 16; atomic weight of oxygen.

Ar(V₂O₅) = 2 · 50.94 + 5 · 16.

Ar(V₂O₅) = 149.88; molecular weight of vanadium (V) oxide.

ω(V) = 2 · Ar(V) ÷ Ar(V₂O₅) · 100%.

ω(V) = 67.80%; the percent composition of vanadium.

ω(O) = 100% - 67.80%.

ω(O) = 32.20%; the percent composition of oxygen.

21. a. What is the molar mass of an element?

This is the mass of an element divided by the number of moles.

Molar mass = Mass / Number of moles

b. Write the molar mass rounded to two  decimal places of carbon, neon, iron and  uranium.

amu = Atomic Mass Unit

Carbon = 12.01 amu

Neon = 20.18 amu

Iron = 55.85 amu

Uranium = 238.03 amu

MgX2 Very low density Highly reactive Diatomic Using the periodic table, determine which element these characteristics MOST LIKE
photoshop1234 [79]
Oxygen, fluorine and iodine are diatomic elements. Flourine is more reactive than the other two because it is the closest away to filling its outer layer of electrons and becoming stable like a noble gas.
