Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ 2.48 \ mol \ Na_2O}}

Explanation:

We are asked to convert an amount in grams to moles. To do this, we use the molar mass. This is the number of grams in one mole of a substance. It is the same value numerically as the atomic mass on the Periodic Table, however the units are grams per mole, not atomic mass units.

Look up the molar masses for the individual elements.

  • Sodium (Na): 22.9897693 g/mol
  • Oxygen (O): 15.999 g/mol

Look back at the formula: Na₂O. Notice there is a subscript of 2 after sodium. This means there are 2 atoms of sodium in every molecule, so we have to multiply sodium's molar mass by 2 before adding oxygen's.

  • Na₂O: 2(22.9897693 g/mol)+ 15.999 g/mol = 61.9785386 g/mol

Set up a ratio using the molar mass.

\frac {61.9785386 \ g \ Na_2O}{1 \ mol \ Na_2O}

Multiply by the given number of grams.

154 \ g \ Na_2O*\frac {61.9785386 \ g \ Na_2O}{1 \ mol \ Na_2O}

Flip the ratio so the grams of sodium oxide can cancel each other out.

154 \ g \ Na_2O*\frac {1  \ mol \ Na_2O}{61.9785386 \ g \ Na_2O}

154 *\frac {1  \ mol \ Na_2O}{61.9785386 }

\frac {154}{61.9785386 }  \ mol \ Na_2O

2.48473106141 \ mol \ Na_2O

The original measurement of grams given has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the hundredth place.

  • 2.48<u>4</u>73106141

The 4 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 8.

2.48 \ mol \ Na_2O

There are <u>2.48 moles of sodium oxide</u> in 154 grams, so choice A is correct.

Place these hydrocarbons in order of decreasing boiling point. Compound Structure butane CH3CH2CH2CH3 pentane CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3 2,
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Order of hydrocarbons in decreasing order of boiling point:

Paraffin > Hexadecane > Pentane >  Dimethylpropane > Butane

Explanation:

Boiling points of hydrocarbons depend upon:

Mass of the hydrocarbon

Intermolecular forces of interaction

Hydrocarbons of greater mass or greater number of carbons have greater molecular mass.

Molecular formula of paraffin is CH_3(CH2)_{33}CH3

Molecular formula of hexadecane is CH_3(CH2)_{14}CH3

Among given hydrocarbons, number of carbon is highest in paraffin and hence has highest boiling point.

Boiling point of paraffin is followed by hexadecane having second highest number of carbon.

Mass of dimethylpropane and pentane are comparable. But boiling point of dimethylpropane is less than pentane. This is because branching decreases intermolecular force of attraction (van der Waal's force) which leads to decrease in boiling point.

No. of carbon in butane is least among given. So its boiling point is lowest.

Hence, Order of hydrocarbons in decreasing order of boiling point:

Paraffin > Hexadecane > Pentane >  Dimethylpropane > Butane

professor190 [17]

The atomic mass of the element would simply be equal to the sum of the weighted average of each isotope, that is:

atomic mass = 59.015 amu * 0.717 + 62.011 amu * (1 – 0.717)

<span>atomic mass = 59.863 amu</span>
