The percent composition of calcium is ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 40.1%

Explanation: The mass of calcium in this compound is equal to 40.1 grams because there's one atom of calcium present and calcium has an atomic mass of 40.1 . The molar mass of the compound is 100.1 grams. Using the handy equation above, we get: Mass percent = 40.1 g Ca⁄100.1 g CaCO3 × 100% = 40.1% Ca.

The naturally occurring radioactive decay series that begins with 23592U stops with formation of the stable 20782Pb nucleus. The
dsp73

Answer: There are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series

Explanation:

Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.

Beta Decay : It is a type of decay process, in which a proton gets converted to neutron and an electron. This is also known as -decay. In this the mass number remains same but the atomic number is increased by 1.

In radioactive decay the sum of atomic number or mass number of reactants must be equal to the sum of atomic number or mass number of products .

_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{82}^{207}\textrm{Pb}+X_2^4\alpha+Y_{-1}^0e

Thus for mass number : 235 = 207+4X

4X= 28

X = 7

Thus for atomic number : 92 = 82+2X-Y

2X- Y = 10

2(7) - Y= 10

14-10 = Y

Y= 4

_{92}^{235}\textrm{U}\rightarrow _{82}^{207}\textrm{Pb}+7_2^4\alpha+4_{-1}^0e

Thus there are 7 alpha-particle emissions and 4 beta-particle emissions involved in this series

How do you convert from grabs to moles of a substance
Lorico [155]

The correct question is as follows:

How do you convert from grams to moles of a substance

1. Divide by the molar mass

2. Subtract the molar mass

3. Add the molar mass

4. Multiple by the molar mass

Answer: In order to convert from grams to moles of a substance divide by the molar mass.

Explanation:

The number of moles of a substance is the mass of substance in grams divided by its molar mass.

The formula to calculate moles is as follows.

Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

This means that grams are converted to moles when grams is divided by molar mass.

Thus, we can conclude that in order to convert from grams to moles of a substance divide by the molar mass.

In an experiment, 4.14 g of phosphorus combined with chlorine to produce 27.8 g of a white solid compound. what is the empirical
Umnica [9.8K]

Grams of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams 
Grams of white compound = 27.8 grams 
Grams of Chlorine would be = 27.8 - 4.14 = 23.66 grams
 Calculating moles which would be grams / molar mass
 Molar mass of P = 30.97 grams / moles; Molar mass of Cl = 35.45 grams / moles
 Moles of Phosphorus = 4.14 grams / 30.97 grams / moles = 0.1337 moles
 Moles of Chlorine = 23.66 grams / 35.45 grams / moles = 0.6674 moles
 Calculating the ratios by dividing with the small entity
 P = 0.1337 moles / 0.1337 moles = 1
 Cl = 0.6674 moles / 0.1337 moles = 5 
So the empirical formula would be PCl5
