What is the percent composition by mass of each element in Co(HSO4)2?

Chemistry

MrRissso [65]2 years ago

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%

How do we differentiate chemical change from physical change ​
bija089 [108]

Answer:

Chemical change :has change in mass, heat is needed, new element is formed, hard to reverse.......

Physicalchange:does not have change in mass, heat is not necessary, no new element is formed, easy to reverse

g A laboratory analysis of an unknown compound found the following composition: C 75.68% ; H 8.80% ; O 15.52%. What is the empir
sammy [17]

Answer:

THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA FOR THE UNKNOWN COMPOUND IS C7H9O

Explanation:

The empirical formula for the unknown compound can be obtained by following the processes below:

1 . Write out the percentage composition of the individual elements in the compound

C = 75.68 %

H = 8.80 %

O = 15.52 %

2. Divide the percentage composition by the atomic masses of the elements

C = 75 .68 / 12 = 6.3066

H = 8.80 / 1 = 8.8000

O = 15.52 / 16 = 0.9700

3. Divide the individual results by the lowest values

C = 6.3066 / 0.9700 = 6.5016

H = 8.8000 / 0.9700 = 9.0722

O = 0.9700 / 0.9700 = 1

4. Round up the values to the whole number

C = 7

H = 9

O = 1

5 Write out the empirical formula for the compound

C7H90

In conclusion, the empirical formula for the unknown compound is therefore C7H9O
