Answer:
The mass of 0.280 mole sample of sodium hydroxide NaOH is 11.2 grams.
Explanation:
To know the mass in grams of 0.280 moles of sample of sodium hydroxide NaOH, you must know the molar mass of the compound, that is, the mass of one mole of a substance, which can be an element or a compound.
So you know:
- Na: 23 g/mole
- O: 16 g/mole
- H: 1 g/mole
So, the molar mass of NaOH is:
NaOH= 23 g/mole + 16 g/mole+ 1 g/mole= 40 g/mole
Then the following rule of three can be applied: if in 1 mole of sodium hydroxide there are 40 grams, in 0.280 moles how much mass is there?
mass= 11.2 grams

Answer:
Compound X has a molar mass of 316.25 g*mol^-1 and the following composition:
element & mass %
phosphorus & 39.18%
sulfur & 60.82%
Write the molecular formula of X.
Explanation:
The given molecule of phosphorus and sulfur has molar mass --- 316.25 g.
Empirical formula calculation:
element: phosphorus sulfur
co9mposition: 39.185% 60.82%
divide with
atomic mass: 39.185/31.0 g/mol 60.82/32.0g/mol
=1.26mol 1.90mol
smallest mole ratio: 1.26mol/1.26mol =1 1.90mol/1.26 mol =1.50
multiply with 2: 2 3
Hence, the empirical formula is:
P2S3.
Mass of empirical formula is:
158.0g/mol
Given, molecule has molar mass --- 316.25 g/mol
Hence, the ratio is:
316.25g/mol/158.0 =2
Hence, the molecular formula of the compound is :
2 x (P2S3)
=
