Answer:

C. CaCO₃  

Explanation:

One formula unit contains the elements calcium, carbon, and oxygen. Start by writing the symbol of the elements:

CaCO

We indicate the number of atoms of each element by writing the number as a subscript following the symbol.

One formula unit contains one atom of Ca, one of C, and three of O, so the formula becomes

Ca₁C₁O₃

Finally, we do not write one as a subscript in a formula. If there is no subscript, we automatically assume that it is one. Thus, the correct formula is

CaCO₃

What mass of dinitrogen monoxide, N2O, contains the same number of molecules as 3.00 g of trichlorofluoromethane, CCl3F?
erica [24]

Answer:

0.9612 g

Explanation:

First we <u>calculate how many moles are there in 3.00 g of CCl₃F</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 3.00 g CCl₃F ÷ 137.37 g/mol = 0.0218 mol CCl₃F

Now, we need to calculate how many grams of N₂O would have that same number of molecules, or in other words, <em>the same amount of moles</em>.

Thus we <u>calculate how many grams would 0.0218 moles of N₂O weigh</u>, using the <em>molar mass of N₂O</em> :

  • 0.0218 mol N₂O * 44.013 g/mol = 0.9612 g N₂O
