What is the mass percent of oxygen (0) in SO2?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vazorg [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

D. (16.0 g + 16.0 g) × 100% / (32.1 g + 16.0 g + 16.0 g) = 49.9%

Explanation:

Step 1: Detemine the mass of O in SO₂

There are 2 atoms of O in 1 molecule of SO₂. Then,

m(O) = 2 × 16.0 g = 16.0 g + 16.0 g = 32.0 g

Step 2: Determine the mass of SO₂

m(SO₂) = 1 × mS + 2 × mO = 1 × 32.1 g + 2 × 16.0 g = 32.1 g + 16.0 g + 16.0 g = 64.1 g

Step 3: Detemine the mass percent of oxygen in SO₂

We will use the following expression.

m(O)/m(SO₂) × 100%

(16.0 g + 16.0 g) × 100% / (32.1 g + 16.0 g + 16.0 g) = 49.9%

A less-intense wave will have fewer _____ than a more-intense wave.
Shalnov [3]
A less intense wave will have fewer OSCILLATING AMPLITUDE than a more intense wave.
The intensity of a wave is the power transferred per unit area, where the area is measured on the plane perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the energy. Intense sounds are characterized by the particles of the medium vibrating back and forth with large amplitude.<span />
