Washing soda, a compound used to prepare hard water for washing laundry, is a hydrate, which means that a certain number of wate

r molecules are included in the solid structure. Its formula can be written as Na2CO3⋅xH2O, where x is the number of moles of H2O per mole of Na2CO3. When a 3.070 −g sample of washing soda is heated at 25 ∘C, all the water of hydration is lost, leaving 1.14 g of Na2CO3.
What is the value of x?

Answer: 10

Explanation:

The detailed solution is contained in the image attached. The molar mass of hydrated and anhydrous salts are obtained and the number of moles of hydrated and hydrated salts are equated. The masses of hydrated and anhydrous salts are gives in the question and are simply substituted accordingly. This can now be used to obtain the number of molecules of water of crystallization as required in the question.

Write the molecular formula for a compound with the possible elements C, H, N and O that exhibits a molecular ion at M
liberstina [14]

Answer:

= \mathbf{C_3H_6O}

Explanation:

From the given information, since the molecular mass of the ion M+ is not given;

Let's assume M+ = 58.0423

So, by applying the 13th rule;

we will need to divide the mass by 13, after dividing it;

The quotient n = no. of carbon; &

The addition of the quotient (n) with the remainder r =  no. of hydrogen.

So;

\dfrac{58}{13}= 4 \ remainder \ 6

So;

C_nH_{n+r} = C_4H_{4+6}

= C_4H_{10}

From the given information; we have oxygen present, so since the mass of oxygen = 16, we put oxygen in the molecular formula by removing CH_4. Also, since the mass is an even number then Nitrogen is 0.

So, we have:

= \mathbf{C_3H_6O}

If a molecule has an empirical formula of C2H2O and a molecular mass of 84.0 g/mol, what is the molecular formula?
lord [1]

Answer:

=C₄H₄O₂

Explanation:

Given the empirical formula of a molecule, the he the quotient of the molecular mas and and the empirical mass=constant.

84.0 g/mol/mass of(C₂H₂O)=constant

=84/(12×2+1×2×16)

=84/42

=2

Therefore, the molecular formula is (C₂H₂O)₂=C₄H₄O₂

Oxygen is a __________ and nitrogen is a __________. metalloid, metalloid nonmetal, metal nonmetal, nonmetal nonmetal, metalloid
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

"nonmetal, nonmetal"

Explanation:

Oxygen is a non metal and Nitrogen is a non metal. It is 8th element of the periodic table. It is located in period 2 and group 16.

Nitrogen lies at the group 15 of the periodic table. Its atomic no is 7. Its valency is 2.

Hence, the correct option is (c) "nonmetal, nonmetal".
