A 5.5 g sample of a substance contains only carbon and oxygen. Carbon makes up 35% of the mass of the substance. The rest is mad
Umnica [9.8K]

We have been given the condition that carbon makes up 35% of the mass of the substance and the rest is made up of oxygen. With this, it can be concluded that 65% of the substance is made up of oxygen. If we let x be the mass of oxygen in the substance, the operation that would best represent the scenario is,

<span>                                       x = (0.65)(5.5 g)</span>

<span>                                       <em> </em><span><em>x = 3.575 g</em></span></span>

Suppose that Daniel has a 3.00 3.00 L bottle that contains a mixture of O 2 O2 , N 2 N2 , and CO 2 CO2 under a total pressure of
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Partial pressure O₂ → 2.74 atm

Explanation:

Let's analyse the data given:

Volume → 3L

In the bottle there is a mixture of gases that contains, O₂, N₂ and CO₂.

Total pressure is 4.80 atm

Let's apply the Ideal Gases Law to determine the total moles of the mixture

P . V = n .  R. T

4.80 atm . 3L = n . 0.082 . 273K

n = 4.80 atm . 3L / 0.082 . 273K → 0.643 moles

We apply the concept of mole fraction:

Mole fraction of a gas X = moles of gas X / Total moles

Mole fraction of a gas X = Partial pressure X / Total pressure

In a mixture, sum of mole fraction of each gas = 1

We determine mole fraction of N₂ → 0.230 / 0.643 = 0.357

We determine mole fraction of CO₂ → 0.350 atm / 4.80 atm = 0.0729

1 - mole fraction N₂ - mole fraction CO₂ = mole fraction O₂

1 - 0.357 - 0.0729 = 0.5701 → mole fraction O₂

We replace in the formula: Mole fraction O₂ = Partial pressure O₂ / 4.80 atm

0.5701 . 4.80 atm = Partial pressure O₂ → 2.74 atm

masya89 [10]

%Mass

Ar C = 12 g/mol, Mr C₄H₁₀ = 58 g/mol, Ar H = 1 g/mol

\tt C=\dfrac{4.12}{58}\times 100\%=82.8\%\\\\H=100\%-82.8\%=17.2\%

or

\tt H=\dfrac{10.1}{58}\times 100\%= 17.2\%

What is the difference between weight and mass?
Marina86 [1]

Key differences between Mass and Weight

The weight may vary, but the mass is constant.

The mass is measured in kilograms (kg), while the weight is measured in newtons (N).

Mass refers to the amount of matter an object has, but the weight refers to the force of gravity acting on an object.

If we compare a mole of carbon atoms to a mole of oxygen atoms, which sample will contain more atoms?.
Alex Ar [27]

Since 1 mole of any element contains 6.0221023 atoms, a mole of carbon and a mole of oxygen will have the same number of atoms.

<h3>Is a mole of oxygen equivalent to a mole of carbon?</h3>

Answer and justification The molar mass of carbon differs from the molar mass of oxygen, hence this assertion is untrue. As a result, one mole of oxygen and one mole of carbon cannot have the same mass.

<h3>What kind of link unites carbon and oxygen?</h3>

A polar covalent link between carbon and oxygen is known as a carbon-oxygen bond. With six valence electrons, oxygen likes to either share two of them in a bond with carbon, leaving the remaining four unoccupied.
