Answer:

Atomic mass of E is 128.24

Explanation:

  • The percentage composition by mass of an element in a compound is given by dividing the mass of the element by the total mass of the compound and expressing it as a percentage.
  • In this case; the compound Bi₂E₃

Percentage composition of bismuth = 52.07%

Percentage composition of E = 47.93%

Mass Bismuth in the compound is (2×208.9804) = 417.96 g

Therefore,

To calculate the atomic mass of E

52.07% = 417.96 g

47.93% = ?

            = (47.93 × 417.96 ) ÷ 52.07 %

            = 384.729

         E₃ = 384.729

Therefore; E = 384.729 ÷ 3

                     = 128.24  

The atomic mass of E is 128.24

Calculate the amount, in moles, of each of the following. You may round atomic masses to one decimal place.
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 0.023 mol of CdS

b) 0.12 mol of MoO3

c) 7.3 mol of AlPO4

Explanation:

a) CdS

MW = 112.4 + 32

      = 144 g

                                144g ------------------ 1 mol

                                  3.28g --------------  x

                                 x = (3.28 x 1) / 144

                                 x = 0.023 mol

b) MoO3

MW = 96 + 3(16) = 144 g

                              144g -------------------  1 mol

                               17.5g -----------------   x

                               x = (17.5 x 1) / 144

                               x = 0.12 mol

c) AlPO4

MW = 27 + 31 + 4(16)

MW = 122 g

                            122 g ------------------  1mol

                            890 g ------------------   x

                            x = (890 x 1) / 122

                            x = 7.3 mol of AlPO4

Bezzdna [24]
Cold, salty water is dense and sinks to the bottom of the ocean while warm water is less dense and remains on the surface. ... Water gets colder with depth because cold, salty ocean water sinks to the bottom of the ocean basins below the less dense warmer water near the surface. In other words it takes a lot of energy to heat water. The specific heat of land is much lower than water. It varies a little by soil type, but it takes a lot less energy to raise the temperature of the same amount of land as water.
