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]

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
