Answer:
Explanation:
Firstly, we have to determine the mass of metal X. We can do that by interpreting the first and second statement mathematically.
Metal X can form 2 oxides (A and B).
A + B = 3g
The mass of oxygen in A is 0.72g and the mass of oxygen in B is 1.16g.
The mass of metal X in the two oxides will be the same because it's the same metal.
Thus, we represent the mass of the metal in the two oxides as 2X.
2X + 0.72 + 1.16 = 3
2X + 1.88 = 3
2X = 3 - 1.88
2X = 1.12
X = 0.56
<u>Thus, 0.56 g of the metal combines with 0.72g of oxygen in A and 1.16 g of oxygen in B.</u>
Thus, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in A is
0.56g ⇒ 0.72g
X ⇒ 1
X = 1 × 0.56/0.72
X = 0.78 g
Hence, 0.78g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for A
Also, mass of metal (X) in 1g of oxygen in B is
0.56g ⇒ 1.16g
X ⇒ 1g
X = 1×0.56/1.16
X = 0.48 g
Thus, 0.48g of the metal will combine with 1g of oxygen for B
The answer is letter C.
Because we classify something as a star when it is: a large ball of gas that undergoes nuclear fusion. Given this definition, a comet is not a star. A comet is a ball of ice and dirt hurtling through space, it shines only because it reflects ligh

Answer:
1813.74g
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of moles of radon = 8.17moles
Unknown:
Mass of radon = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we use the expression below:
Number of moles = 
Molar mass of radon = 222g/mol
Now insert the parameters and solve;
Mass of radon = Number of moles x molar mass
= 8.17 x 222
= 1813.74g
