Assume the atomic mass of element X is 22.99 amu. A 17.15−g sample of X combines with 14.17 g of another element Y to form a com

pound XY. Calculate the atomic mass of Y.

The formula of the compound is XY. This means that the relation between the moles is 1: 1. One mole of X per one mole of Y.

From the information about the element X you can determine the number of moles of X (which is the same that the number of moles of Y).

# of moles of X = weigth of X / atomic mass of X = 17.15 g / 22.9 g/mol = 0.74598

Now the atomic mass of Y = weight of Y / # of moles of Y = 14.17 g / 0.74598 mol = 19 amu

How many moles of Ag will be produced from 16g of Cu, assuming AgNO3 is available in excess
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Assuming the reaction you are referring to is the following:

AgNO3 + Cu --> Cu(NO3)2 + Ag

First, we should balance the reaction:

2 AgNO3 + Cu --> Cu(NO3)2 + 2 Ag

Now we carry out dimensional analysis, taking into account the molar ratios of different species as given in the balanced reaction and molar masses (which we can look up in the periodic table).

We begin with what we know, which is that we have 16.0 g Cu reacting and work our way toward the quantity that we would like to calculate, namely moles of Ag.

16.0 g Cu x   1 mol Cu    x   2 mol Ag    = 0.504 mol Ag

                     63.5 g Cu       1 mol Cu
