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%

For the reaction Na2CO3+Ca(NO3)2⟶CaCO3+2NaNO3 how many grams of calcium carbonate, CaCO3, are produced from 79.3 g of sodium car

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

74.81 grams of calcium carbonate are produced from 79.3 g of sodium carbonate.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

Na₂CO₃ + Ca(NO₃)₂ ⟶ CaCO₃ + 2 NaNO₃

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of each compound participate in the reaction:

Na₂CO₃: 1 mole
Ca(NO₃)₂: 1 mole
CaCO₃: 1 mole
NaNO₃: 2 mole

Being the molar mass of the compounds:

Na₂CO₃: 106 g/mole
Ca(NO₃)₂: 164 g/mole
CaCO₃: 100 g/mole
NaNO₃: 85 g/mole

then by stoichiometry the following quantities of mass participate in the reaction:

Na₂CO₃: 1 mole* 106 g/mole= 106 g
Ca(NO₃)₂: 1 mole* 164 g/mole= 164 g
CaCO₃: 1 mole* 100 g/mole= 100 g
NaNO₃: 2 mole* 85 g/mole= 170 g

You can apply the following rule of three: if by stoichiometry 106 grams of Na₂CO₃ produce 100 grams of CaCO₃, 79.3 grams of Na₂CO₃ produce how much mass of CaCO₃?

$mass of CaCO_{3} =\frac{79.3 grams of Na_{2} CO_{3} *100 grams of of CaCO_{3}}{106 grams of Na_{2} CO_{3}}$

mass of CaCO₃= 74.81 grams

74.81 grams of calcium carbonate are produced from 79.3 g of sodium carbonate.

Water that has condensed and formed water droplets on the ground, grass, and other outdoor objects is known as _____.

Amanda [17]

The correct answer is B. Water that has condensed and formed water droplets on the ground, grass, and other outdoor objects is known as dew. It is water formed due to condensation in early morning or evening. It is formed when the temperature of the objects reach below the dew point of the air around.
