Answer:
23.34 %.
Explanation:
- The percentage of water must be calculated as a mass percent.
- We need to find the mass of water, and the total mass in one mole of the compound. For that we need to use the atomic masses of each element and take in consideration the number of atoms of each element in the formula unit.
- <em>Atomic masses of the elements:</em>
Cd: 112.411 g/mol, N: 14.0067 g/mol, O: 15.999 g/mol, and H: 1.008 g/mol.
- <em>Mass of the formula unit:</em>
Cd(NO₃)₂•4H₂O
mass of the formula unit = (At. mass of Cd) + 2(At. mass of N) + 10(At. mass of O) + 8(At. mass of H) = (112.411 g/mol) + 2(14.0067 g/mol) + 10(15.999 g/mol) + 8(1.008 g/mol) = 308.5 g/mol.
- <em> Mass of water in the formula unit:</em>
<em>mass of water</em> = (4 × 2 × 1.008 g/mol) + (4 × 15.999 g/mol) = 72.0 g/mol.
- <em>So, the percent of water in the compound = [mass of water / mass of the formula unit] × 100 = [(72.0 g/mol)/(308.5 g/mol)] × 100 = 23.34 %</em>
Boyle's law gives the relationship between pressure and volume of gas.
for a fixed amount of gas, at constant temperature the pressure of gas is inversely proportional to its volume.
PV = k
where P - pressure, V - volume and k - constant
P1V1 = P2V2
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side.
substituting the values in the equation
1.2 atm x 1.0 L = P x 4.0 L
P = 0.3 atm
new pressure is 0.3 atm
