Answer:

54.1 % Ca, 43.2 % O, 2.7% H

Explanation:

Molecular formula for calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)₂

As we don't have a mass of Ca(OH)₂ to find out the percentage composition, we consider that the question refers to 1 mol of compound.

1 mol of hydroxide weighs 74.08 g

1 mol of hydroxide has 1 mol of Ca, therefore 40.08 g are Ca

2 moles of O therefore 32g are O

2 moles of H therefore 2 g are H

Percentage composition is known as (Mass of element/Total mass) . 100

(40.08 / 74.08) . 100 = 54.1 %

(32 / 74.08) . 100 = 43.2 %

(2 / 74.08) . 100 = 2.7%

aliya0001 [1]

The air pressure inside the can is lower compared to that of outside air pressure.

Explanation:

In general, the air pressure of an already opened can will be the same as the outside pressure.
Since the can is evacuated and remain as vacuum, so there will be no pressure difference in it.
If the can opens, air inside the can push the top and escapes to the outside.
This is due to high pressure experienced outside the can compare to that of lower pressure inside the can and this may even cause can to collapse itself.

How many moles of electrons must be transferred to plate out 110 g of manganese (MW ~ 55g/mol) from a solution of permanganate (

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

14 mol e⁻

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced half-reaction for the reduction of permanganate to manganese

8 H⁺(aq) + 7 e⁻ + MnO₄⁻(aq) ⇒ Mn(s) + 4 H₂O(l)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 110 g of manganese

The molar mass of Mn is 55 g/mol.

110 g × 1 mol/55 g = 2 mol

Step 3: Calculate the number of moles of electrons needed to produce 2 moles of Mn

According to the half-reaction, 7 moles of electrons are required to produce 1 mole of Mn.

2 mol Mn × 7 mol e⁻/1 mol Mn = 14 mol e⁻
