a sample of copper wire with a mass of 1.659 g is heated with excess powdered sulfur until the copper has combined with the sulf

ur, and all the extra sulfur has been burned off. The final product (a sulfide of copper ) has a mass of 2.080 g. Calculate the empirical formula of the product, and name it.

Copper mass = 1.659
Copper moles = 1.659 / 64 = 0.0259

Sulfur mass = 2.08 - 1.659 = 0.421
Sulfur moles = 0.421  / 32 = 0.0131

Ratio Copper : Sulfur = 2 : 1

Empirical formula: Cu ₂ S
Name: Copper (I) sulfide

A compound has the following percentages by mass: barium, 58.8%; sulfur, 13.74%; oxygen, 27.43%. Determine the empirical formula
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

BaSO₄

Explanation:

Let's assume we have 100 g of the compound. If that's the case we would have:

  • 58.8 g of Ba
  • 13.74 g of S
  • 27.43 g of O

Now we <u>convert the masses of each element into moles</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:

  • 58.8 g Ba ÷ 137.327 g/mol = 0.428 mol Ba
  • 13.74 g S ÷ 32 g/mol = 0.429 mol S
  • 27.43 g O ÷ 16 g/mol = 1.71 mol O

We <u>divide those moles by the lowest number among them</u>:

  • 0.428 mol Ba / 0.428 = 1
  • 0.429 mol S / 0.428 ≈ 1
  • 1.71 mol O / 0.428 = 4

We can express those results as Ba₁S₁O₄, meaning the empirical formula is thus BaSO₄.

The compound tyrosine contains 59.66% C, 6.12% H, 7.73% N, and 26.49% O by mass. What is the empirical formula of tyrosine?
Bezzdna [24]

Answer: C9H11O3N

Explanation:

The percentage by mass of each element is divided by its relative atomic mass. The lowest ratio is now observed. Each ratio is now divided by this lowest ratio and approximated to whole numbers. All these are shown in detail in the image attached.

In the sodium-potassium pump, sodium ion release causes two K ions to be released into the cell. __________________ True False
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

false

Explanation:

As we know that in sodium-potassium pump .          

sodium potassium move 3Na+ outside the cells          

and  moving 2k+ inside the cells                        

so that we can say that given statement is false    

Answer FALSE
