Answer:

K₂CrO₅

Explanation:

The empirical formula is the simplest formula of a compound. To find the empirical formula, we follow the procedure below:

Elements                         Potassium                 Chromium         Oxygen

Mass                                  6.52                             4.34                  5.34

Molar mass                          39                               60                      16

Number of moles             6.52/39                     4.34/60             5.34/16

                                             0.167                          0.072              0.333

Divide through by

the smallest                      0.167/0.072             0.072/0.072          0.333/0.072

                                            2.3                               1                                4.6

                                             2                                 1                                  5

Empirical formula K₂CrO₅

A lead mass is heated and placed in a foam cup calorimeter containing 40.0 mL of water at 17.0°C. The water reaches a temperatur
lbvjy [14]

Answer: 502 Joules

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 40.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{40.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 40.0mL)=40.0g

When metal is dipped in water, the amount of heat released by lead will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water.

Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

q=m\times c\times \Delta T

q = heat absorbed by water

m = mass of water = 40.0 g

T_{final} = final temperature of water = 20.0°C

T_{initial = initial temperature of water = 17.0°C

c = specific heat of water= 4.186 J/g°C

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

q=40.0\times 4.186\times (20.0-17.0)]

q=502J

Hence, the joules of heat were re-leased by the lead is 502

How do you determine the proper number of significant figures of a liquid using a graduated cylinder
Aleksandr [31]
You determine the correct number of significant figure of a measurement in a graduated cylinder by looking at the smallest division on the graduated cylinder. If the division is divided up to the ones place, you can still read the half of that division or the .50 measurement. So, you can have until the tenths place in your measurement.

Calculate the molarity of sodium ion in a solution made
Arada [10]

Answer:

0.1035 M

Explanation:

Considering:

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Moles =Molarity \times {Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Sodium chloride will furnish Sodium ions as:

NaCl\rightarrow Na^{+}+Cl^-

Given :

For Sodium chloride :

Molarity = 0.288 M

Volume = 3.58 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 3.58×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of Sodium furnished by Sodium chloride is same the moles of Sodium chloride as shown below:

Moles =0.288 \times {3.58\times 10^{-3}}\ moles

Moles of sodium ions by sodium chloride = 0.00103104 moles

Sodium sulfate will furnish Sodium ions as:

Na_2SO_4\rightarrow 2Na^{+}+SO_4^{2-}

Given :

For Sodium sulfate :

Molarity = 0.001 M

Volume = 6.51 mL

The conversion of mL to L is shown below:

1 mL = 10⁻³ L

Thus, volume = 6.51 ×10⁻³ L

Thus, moles of Sodium furnished by Sodium sulfate is twice the moles of Sodium sulfate as shown below:

Moles =2\times 0.001 \times {6.51\times 10^{-3}}\ moles

Moles of sodium ions by Sodium sulfate = 0.00001302 moles

Total moles = 0.00103104 moles + 0.00001302 moles = 0.00104406 moles

Total volume = 3.58 ×10⁻³ L + 6.51 ×10⁻³ L = 10.09 ×10⁻³ L

Concentration of sodium ions is:

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Molarity_{Na^+}=\frac{0.00104406}{10.09\times 10^{-3}}

<u> The final concentration of sodium anion = 0.1035 M</u>
