Answer: My answer is in the explanation

Explanation:

Physical and mechanical characteristics of iceberg ice were studied from samples collected near the shores of eastern Newfoundland. Although the physical characteristics show considerable diversity, iceberg ice has some common features and is generally porous, lacks significant concentrations of dissolved materials, contains internal cracks and has an irregular interlocking grain structure.

Number of gram atoms of O = 5.717/ 15.999 = 0.3573

Atomic ratio:

P : O

0.1431/0.1431 : 0.3573/0.1431

1 : 2.5

P : O = 2(1 : 2.5)

Percentage of oxygen = 38.11%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of Na = 36.48 / 23 = 1.6

Number of gram atoms of S = 25.41/ 32 = 0.8

Number of gram atoms of O = 38.11/ 16 = 2.4

Atomic ratio:

Na : S : O

1.6/0.8 : 0.8/0.8 : 2.4/0.8

2 : 1 : 3

Na: S : O = 2 : 1 : 3

Empirical formula is Na₂SO₃.

4. A compound is found to contain 63.52% iron and 36.48% sulfur. Find its empirical formula.

Given data:

Percentage of iron = 63.52%

Percentage of sulfur = 36.48%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of Fe = 63.52 / 55.845 = 1.14

Number of gram atoms of S = 36.48 / 32 = 1.14

Atomic ratio:

Fe : S

1.14/1.14 : 1.14/1.14

1 : 1

Fe : S = 1 : 1

Empirical formula is FeS.

5. Qualitative analysis shows that a compound contains 32.38%sodium, 22.65% sulfur and 44.99 % oxygen. Find the empirical formula of this compound.

Given data:

Percentage of sodium = 32.38%

Percentage of sulfur = 22.65%

Percentage of oxygen = 44.99%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of Na = 32.38 / 23 = 1.4

Number of gram atoms of S = 22.65/ 32 = 0.7

Number of gram atoms of O = 44.99/ 16 = 2.8

Atomic ratio:

Na : S : O

1.4/0.7 : 0.7/0.7 : 2.8/0.7

2 : 1 : 4

Na: S : O = 2 : 1 : 4

Empirical formula is Na₂SO₄.

6. Analysis of a 20.0 gram sample of a compound containing only calcium and bromine indicates that 4.00 grams of calcium are present. What is the empirical formula of the compound formed?

Given data:

Mass of sample = 20g

Mass of bromine = 20 g - 4 g = 16 g

Mass of calcium = 4 g

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of bromine = 16 / 80= 0.2

Number of gram atoms of calcium = 4/ 40= 0.1

Atomic ratio:

Ca : Br

0.1/0.1 : 0.2/0.1

1 : 2

Ca: Br = 1 : 2

Empirical formula is CaBr₂.

If 15.5 mL of 0.225 M aqueous magnesium chloride is added to 37.5 mL of 0.250 M aqueous lead(II) nitrate, then what mass of lead

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

B. 0.971 g

Explanation:

When MgCl₂(aq) reacts with Pb(NO₃)₂(aq), PbCl₂(s) and Mg(NO₃)₂(aq) are produced:

MgCl₂(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) →, PbCl₂(s) + Mg(NO₃)₂(aq)

Thus, we need to find imiting reactant finding moles of each reactant:

<em>Moles MgCl₂:</em>

15.5mL = 0.0155L * (0.225 mol / L) = 3.49x10⁻³ moles

<em>Moles Pb(NO₃)₂:</em>

37.5mL = 0.0375L * (0.250mol / L) = 9.38x10⁻³ moles

As the ratio of the reactants is 1:1, the moles of PbCl₂ are 3.48x10⁻³ moles.

We need to convert thes moles to mass using molar mass of PbCl₂ (278.1g/mol), thus:

3.48x10⁻³ moles * (278.1g/mol) =

0.968g of PbCl₂ are precipitate

Thus, right answer is:

I can model and explain how conduction transfers energy at a molecular level

astraxan [27]

Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more. These molecules then bump into nearby particles and transfer some of their energy to them. This then continues and passes the energy from the hot end down to the colder end of the substance.

Which expression correctly describes energy using SI units? A. 1 J=1kg•m^2/s^2 B. 1 J= 1kg•m/s^2 C. 1 J= 1kg• m/s D. 1 J= 1kg•m^

o-na [289]

Answer:

A. 1 J=1kg•m^2/s^2

Explanation:

Energy refers to the capacity to do work. According to the International System of units (SI units), energy is measured in Joules.

Energy is represented by the force applied over a distance. Force is measured in Newton (N) and distance in metres (m). Hence, energy is Newton × metre (N.m)

Newton is derived from the SI units of mass (Kilograms), and acceleration (metres per seconds^2) i.e Kg.m/s^2, since Force = mass × acceleration.

Since; Energy = Newton × metres

If Newton = Kg.m/s^2 and metres = m

Energy (J) will therefore be; Kg.m/s^2 × m

1J = Kg.m^2/s^2
