What is the percent composition HCN?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kupik [55]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

see calculations in explanation

Explanation:

percent = part/total x 100%

part = ∑ atomic mass of element

  • hydrogen = 1.008 amu (atomic mass units)
  • carbon = 12.011 amu
  • nitrogen = 14.007 amu

total = ∑ molecular mass of compound

       = H amu  +  C amu +  Namu

       = 1.008 amu + 12.011 amu + 14.007 amu

       = 27.026 amu

%H = (1.008amu/27.026amu)100% = 3.730%

%C = (12.011amu/27.026amu)100% = 44.442%

%N = (14.007amu/27.026amu)100% = 51.827%

Check results ∑%values = 100%

3.730% + 44.442% + 51.827% = 99.999% ≅ 100%

A thermometer reads an outside air temperature of 35°c. What is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit
Hoochie [10]

35°c is equal to 95°f

To do this multiply 35 and 1.8

35 x 1.8=63

Now add 32

Resulting in the answer 95

(The equation for to solve for c and f is c1.8+32=f

Ammonia will decompose into nitrogen and hydrogen at high temperature. An industrial chemist studying this reaction fills a 500.
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

12. is the pressure equilibrium constant for the decomposition of ammonia at the final temperature of the mixture.

Explanation:

2NH_3(g)\rightleftharpoons N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

initially

3.0 atm      0              0

At equilibrium

(3.0-2p)     p               3p

Equilibrium partial pressure of nitrogen gas = p = 0.90 atm

The expression of a pressure equilibrium constant will be given by :

K_p=\frac{p_{N_2}\times (p_{H_2})^3}{(p_{NH_3})^2}

K_p=\frac{p\times (3p)^3}{(3.0-2p)^2}

=\frac{0.90 atm\times (3\times 0.90 atm)^3}{(3.0-2\times 0.90 atm)^2}

K_p=12.30\approx 12.

12. is the pressure equilibrium constant for the decomposition of ammonia at the final temperature of the mixture.

What happens to the number of waves when you decrease the wavelength?
Keith_Richards [23]

C

Decreasing the wavelength increases the frequency of a wave and vice versa, as long as the energy of the wave remains constant.

Explanation:

The energy of a wave is given by the formula;

E= hf

Whereby;

E = energy

h = Plank’s constant

f = frequency

Remember that f can be also represented as;

¹/ λ

Whereby;

λ = wavelength

Wavelength and frequency are therefore inversely proportional.

Decreasing the wavelength increases the frequency of a wave and vice versa, as long as the energy of the wave remains constant.
