Answer:

Percent Composition of Compounds

The percent composition (by mass) of a compound can be calculated by dividing the mass of each element by the total mass of the compound.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Translate between a molecular formula of a compound and its percent composition by mass

  • The atomic composition of chemical compounds can be described in a variety of ways, including molecular formulas and percent composition.
  • The percent composition of a compound is calculated with the molecular formula: divide the mass of each element found in one mole of the compound by the total molar mass of the compound.
  • The percent composition of a compound can be measured experimentally, and these values can be used to determine the empirical formula of a compound.

  • percent by mass: The fraction, by weight, of one element of a compound.
  • The atomic composition of chemical compounds can be described using a variety of notations including molecular, empirical, and structural formulas. Another convenient way to describe atomic composition is to examine the percent composition of a compound by mass.

  • Percent Composition by Mass

Percent composition is calculated from a molecular formula by dividing the mass of a single element in one mole of a compound by the mass of one mole of the entire compound. This value is presented as a percentage.

The first ionization energy, e, of a potassium atom is 0.696 aj. what is the wavelength of light, in nm, that is just sufficient
elena55 [62]
The formula to be used for this problem is as follows:

E = hc/λ, where h is the Planck's constant, c is the speed of light and λ is the wavelength. Also 1 aJ = 10⁻¹⁸ J

0.696×10⁻¹⁸ = (6.62607004×10⁻³⁴ m²·kg/s)(3×10⁸ m/s)/λ
Solving for λ,
λ = 2.656×10⁻⁷ m or <em>0.022656 nm</em>

Commercial grade fuming nitric acid contains about 90.0% HNO3 by mass with a density of 1.50 g/mL, calculate the molarity of the
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Since molarity is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution, we need to find the number of moles of nitric acid, and the volume of solution.

molar mass of nitric acid (HNO3) = 1 + 14 + (3x16) = 15 + 48 = 63 g/mole

1.50 g/ml x 1000 ml = 1500 g/liter

1500 g/liter x 0.90 = 1350 g/liter of pure HNO3 (the 0.9 is to correct for the fact that it is 90% pure)

1350 g/liter x 1 mole/63 g = 21.43 moles/liter = 21 Molar HNO3

= 21 Molar of HNO3

The escape of gas through a small hole in a container
Doss [256]
<span>The escape of gas through a small hole in a container is called effusion. This phenomenon happens when the diameter of the hole is small enough compared to the mean free path of the gas particles. This is governed by Graham's Law which states that the rate of effusion is inversely proportional to the molecular weight of the gas.</span>
