What is the percent composition of dinotrogen pentoxide? With work shown please

Chemistry
1 answer:
iris [78.8K]3 years ago
7 0

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%

How did atomic theory develop and change?
Agata [3.3K]
The atomic theory started with Democritus, who stated that all space was made up of indivisible particles called atoms, though Aristotles refuted that statement by saying that matter didn’t exist, he believed in the four elements: air, fire, water, and earth. Then came Dalton, who revived Democritus’s ideas and proposed the law of multiple proportions, he revived the idea that all space was made of atoms. Soon after, J.J Thompson discovered the electron by using cathode rays. Max Planck developed the quantum theory by stating that electromagnetic radiation could only be emitted in quantized form (later called quanta). Einstein furthered this idea with studies of light. Robert Millikan eventually measured the charge of a single electron. Ernest Rutherford used a gold foil experiment and discovered the nuclei, considering his alpha particles were deflected by some object. Niels Bohr made the atomic model with electrons spinning around an atom’s nucleus, Erwin Schrodinger describes how electrons have wave like properties. James Chadwick then discovers the neutron!

Quantum transitions that result in the characteristic sharp lines of the X-ray spectrum always involve
labwork [276]

Answer: 5

Explanation: this is because the energy level of the emitted of absorbed photon increases as the number of electron shell decreases, thereby making the inner shell have higher energy than other shells

How many grams of sodium sulfide can be produced when 45.3 g Na react with 105 g S?
RoseWind [281]
The chemical reaction would be as follows:

<span>2Na + S → Na2S

We are given the amount of the reactants to be used in the reaction. We use these to calculate the amount of product. We do as follows:

45.3 g Na ( 1 mol / 22.99 g ) = 1.97 mol Na
105 g S ( 1 mol / 32.06 g ) = 3.28 mol S

The limiting reactant would be Na. We calculate as follows:

1.97 mol Na ( 1 mol Na2S / 2 mol Na ) (78.04 g / mol ) = 76.87 g Na2S produced</span>
