Answer:

%N = 25.94%

%O = 74.06%

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the mass of nitrogen in 1 mole of N₂O₅

We will multiply the molar mass of N by the number of N atoms in the formula of N₂O₅.

m(N): 2 × 14.01 g = 28.02 g

Step 2: Calculate the mass of oxygen in 1 mole of N₂O₅

We will multiply the molar mass of O by the number of O atoms in the formula of N₂O₅.

m(O): 5 × 16.00 g = 80.00 g

Step 3: Calculate the mass of 1 mole of N₂O₅

We will sum the masses of N and O.

m(N₂O₅) = m(N) + m(O) = 28.02 g + 80.00 g = 108.02 g

Step 4: Calculate the percent composition of N₂O₅

We will use the following expression.

%Element = m(Element)/m(Compound) × 100%

%N = m(N)/m(N₂O₅) × 100% = 28.02 g/108.02 g × 100% = 25.94%

%O = m(O)/m(N₂O₅) × 100% = 80.00 g/108.02 g × 100% = 74.06%

Which sample has particles with the lowest average kinetic energy?

Anastasy [175]

The question asks average kinetic energy. So it is only related with the temperature. The higher temperature is, the higher kinetic energy is. So the answer is (4).

Why do solids maintain their shape, whereas fluids do not?

Vinvika [58]

Solids maintain their shape, whereas fluids do not because the molecules in solids maintain a regular pattern and only vibrate, or move very slowly. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "d". I hope the answer has come to your help.

Calculate the mass percent (m/m) of a solution prepared by dissolving 45.09 g of NaCl in 174.9 g of H2O.

inysia [295]

Answer:

20.3 % NaCl

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of solute = 45.09 g

Mass of solvent = 174.9 g

Mass percent of solution = ?

Solution:

Mass of solution = 45.09 g + 174.9 g

Mass of solution = 220 g

The solute in 220 g is 45.09 g

220 g = 2.22 × 45.09

In 100 g solution amount of solute:

45.09 g/2.22 = 20.3 g

Thus m/m% = 20.3 % NaCl

Three 1.0-l flasks, maintained at 308 k, are connected to each other with stopcocks. initially the stopcocks are closed. one of

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

0.6103 atm.

Explanation:

We need to calculate the vapor pressure of each component after the stopcocks are opened.

Volume after the stopcocks are opened = 3.0 L.

1) For N₂:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = 1.5 atm & V₁ = 1.0 L & V₂ = 3.0 L.

P₂ of N₂ = P₁V₁ / V₂ = (1.5 atm) (1.0 L) / (3.0 L) = 0.5 atm.

2) For H₂O:

Pressure of water at 308 K is 42.0 mmHg.

we need to convert from mmHg to atm: (1.0 atm = 760.0 mmHg).

P of H₂O = (1.0 atm x 42.0 mmHg) / (760.0 mmHg) = 0.0553 atm.

We must check if more 2.2 g of water is evaporated,

n = PV/RT = (0.0553 atm) (3.0 L) / (0.082 L.atm/mol.K) (308 K) = 0.00656 mole.

m = n x cmolar mass = (0.00656 mole) (18.0 g/mole) = 0.118 g.

It is lower than the mass of water in the flask (2.2 g).

3) For C₂H₅OH:

Pressure of C₂H₅OH at 308 K is 102.0 mmHg.

we need to convert from mmHg to atm: (1.0 atm = 760.0 mmHg).

P of C₂H₅OH = (1.0 atm x 102.0 mmHg) / (760.0 mmHg) = 0.13421 atm.

We must check if more 0.3 g of C₂H₅OH is evaporated,

n = PV/RT = (0.13421 atm) (3.0 L) / (0.082 L.atm/mol.K) (308 K) = 0.01594 mole.

m = n x molar mass = (0.01594 mole) (46.07 g/mole) = 0.7344 g.

It is more than the amount in the flask (0.3 g), so the pressure should be less than 0.13421 atm.

We have n = mass / molar mass = (0.30 g) / (46.07 g/mole) = 0.00651 mole.

So, P of C₂H₅OH = nRT / V = (0.00651 mole) (0.082 L.atm/mole.K) (308.0 K) / (3.0 L) = 0.055 atm.

So, total pressure = P of N₂ + P of H₂O + P of C₂H₅OH = 0.5 atm + 0.0553 atm + 0.055 atm = 0.6103 atm.
