An element is just consisted of one type of atom and cannot be broken down by chemicals (Ex. Oxygen just has the oxygen molecule)

A compound is when there's a mixture of atoms and can be broken down by chemicals (Ex. NaCl is made up of sodium and chloride atoms)

Predict the density of acetylene gas (C2H2) at 0.910 atm and 20oC.
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

d = 0.98 g/L

Explanation:

Given data:

Density of acetylene = ?

Pressure = 0.910 atm

Temperature = 20°C (20+273 = 293 K)

Solution:

Formula:

PM = dRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K

M = molecular mass = 26.04 g/mol

0.910 atm × 26.04 g/mol = d × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K×293 K

23.7  atm.g/mol = d × 24.1 atm.L/mol

d = 23.7  atm.g/mol / 24.1 atm.L/mol

d = 0.98 g/L

15. Calculate the hydrogen ion concentration of a
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

pH = − log [H+] , we can solve for [H+] as,

− pH = log [H+] ,

[H+] = 10^−pH,

so PH =2.4 in you case is

[H+] = 10^-2.4 =0.00398

The option are not correct it looks

Caculate the number if moles of the following: 800. g of Ca
Maru [420]
Mole   is  equal  to   mass  of  the  element  divided  by   molar  mass  of  the  element.  that   is
mole=mass/molar  mass
From  periodic  table calcium  has  a   molar  mass  of  40   g/mol
moles  is   therefore  =800g/40g/mol=20moles
