A compound is analyzed and found to contain 22.10%Al, 25.40%P, and 52.50%O

Let the total mass of compound = 100g

The mass of Aluminum = 22.10 g

Moles of Al = mass / atomic mass = 22.10 /23= 0.96

The mass of P = 25.40 g

Moles of P = 25.40 / 31 = 0.819

The mass of oxygen  = 52.50 g

Moles of oxygen = 52.50 / 16= 3.28

The mole ratio of the two elements will be

Al = 0.96/0.819 = 1.17

P = 0.819/0.819 = 1

O = 3.28 / 0.819 = 4

The whole number ratio will be 1 : 1 : 4

So formula will be AlPO4

Avogrados number of representatives particles is equal to one what?​
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Avogadro number of representatives particles is equal to one mole.

Explanation:

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

17 g of ammonia = 1 mole =  6.022 × 10²³ molecules of ammonia

12 g of carbon = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of carbon

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

The ionization of pure water forms _____.
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: The ionization of pure water forms <u><em>hydroxide and hydronium ions.</em></u>

Explanation:

Ionization is a reaction in the pure water in which water breaks down into its constituting ions that hydronium ion and hydroxide ions.

H_2O+H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^++OH^-

One molecule of water looses its proton to form hydroxide ion and l=the lost protons get associated with another water molecule to form hydronium ion.

Is cobalt 60 more dangerous than bananas ( potassium 40) and why ?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

To the best of my knowledge, it is because of the amount of gamma rays is given off.

Explanation:

While both are isotopes, Potassium 40 gives off fewer gamma rays compared to Cobalt 60. Potassium 40 isn't really harmful to humans, but Cobalt 60 (I believe) is used in chemotherapy.

Na2S2O3 + AgBr NaBr + Na3ſAg(S203)2] What is
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Mass of NaBr produced  = 23.67 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of AgBr = 42.7 g

Mass of NaBr produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Na₂S₂O₃ + AgBr    →    NaBr + Na₃(Ag(S₂O₃)₂

Number of moles of AgBr:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 42.7 g/ 187.7 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.23 mol

now we will compare the moles of AgBr with NaBr.

             AgBr        :         NaBr

                1            :           1

              0.23       :         0.23

Mass of NaBr:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.23 mol × 102.89 g/mol

Mass = 23.67 g
