Answer: 568g/mol

Explanation:

It should be noted that there are 40 atoms of carbon in lycopene.

Since mass of 1 carbon = 12g/mol

Mass of 40 carbon atoms = 40 × 12g/mol = 480g/mol

Let the molar mass of lycopene be represented by x.

Therefore the molar mass of carbon = x × mass percent of carbon in lycopene

x × 84.49% = 480g/mol

x × 0.8449 = 480g/mol

x = 480/0.8449

x = 568g/mol

The molar mass of lycopene is 568g/mol

If 25.0 g NO are produced, how many grams of nitrogen gas are used?
ivanzaharov [21]

Based on the assumption that the reaction involves N and O to produce NO, if 25.0 g of NO are produced, the amount of N gas used would be 11.66 grams

<h3>Stoichiometric calculation</h3>

From the equation of the reaction:

       N + O ---------> NO

Mole ratio of N to NO is 1:1

Mole of 25.0 g of NO = 25/30.01 = 0.833 moles

Equivalent mole of N = 0.833 moles

Mass of 0.833 moles N = 0.833 x 14 = 11.66 grams

How many grams of potassium (K) contain 5.11 x 10^22 atoms of potassium?
Darina [25.2K]

The atomic mass of K is 39

from Avogadro's law

39g of K contains 6.02x10^23 atoms

therefore if

39=6.02x19^23

X=5.11×10^22

making X the subject of the formula

X= (5.11×10^22×39)÷6.02×10^23

X= 33g
