Answer:

CeO₂

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since we are given the mass of both cerium and the cerium oxide, we can first compute the moles of cerium and the moles of oxygen as shown below:

n_{Ce}=4.2gCe*\frac{1molCe}{140.12gCe}=0.03molCe\\

m_O=5.16g-4.2g=0.96gO\\\\n_O=0.96g*\frac{1molO}{16.0gO} =0.06molO

Now, we simply divide each moles by 0.03 as the fewest moles in the formula to obtain the simplest formula (empirical formula) of this oxide:

Ce=\frac{0.03}{0.03}=1\\\\O =\frac{0.06}{0.03}=2

Thus, the formula turns out:

CeO_2

Regards!

When titrating a strong acid with a strong base, after the equivalence point is reached, the pH will be determined exclusively b
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

B) hydroxide concentration

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since we are talking about strong both base and acid, since the base is the titrant and the acid the analyte, once the equivalence point has been reached, some additional base could be added before the experimenter realizes about it, therefore, since the titrant is a strong base, it completely dissociates in hydroxide ions and metallic ions which allows us to compute the pOH of the solution by known the hydroxide ions concentration.

After that, due to the fact that the pH is related with the pOH as shown below:

pH=14-pOH

We can directly compute the pH.

Best regards.

In which situation is no work considered to be done by a force?
Masja [62]

If the angle is either 0 or 180, that means that there is either negative or positive work, so A and D are not correct.

If the angle is 45, then there is still some work involved.

The only option where there is no work done by a force is B. when the angle is between the force and displacement is 90.

A solution is created by dissolving 11.0 grams of ammonium chloride in enough water to make 235 mL of solution. How many moles o
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.206 moles

Explanation:

According to the given scenario, the calculation of the number of moles of ammonium chloride is available in the resulting solution is given below:

Given that

Amount of NH_4Cl is 11.0 grams

And, the volume is 235 mL

Now the molar mass of NH_4Cl is 53.49g/mol

So, the number of moles presented is

= 11.0 ÷ 53.49

= 0.206 moles

hence, the number of moles of ammonium chloride are available in the resulting solution is 0.206 moles
