Answer:

38.7%

41.3%

20%

Explanation:

The percentage composition helps to know the what percent of the total mass of a compound is made up of each of the constituent elements or groups.

To solve this problem:

find the formula mass by adding the atomic masses of the atoms that makes up the compound.
place the mass contribution of the element or group to the formula mas and multiply by 100;

Compound:

Ca₃(PO₄)₂

Formula mass = 3(40) + 2[31 + 4(16)]

= 120 + 2(95)

= 120 + 190

= 310

%C = $\frac{3(40)}{310}$ x 100 = 38.7%

%P = $\frac{8(16)}{310}$ x 100 = 41.3%

%O = $\frac{2(31)}{310}$ x 200 = 20%

Complete combustion of 7.40 g of a hydrocarbon produced 22.4 g of CO2 and 11.5 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h

cluponka [151]

C2H5 First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2. Carbon = 12.0107 Hydrogen = 1.00794 Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass. moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule. Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen. moles C = 0.50899 moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722 We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon. total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185 7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked. Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen. 0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669 0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5. Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is C2H5

Answer:

Part 1: 7.42 mL; Part 2: 3Cu²⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) ⟶ 2Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s)

Explanation:

Part 1. Volume of reactant

(a) Balanced chemical equation.

$\rm 2Na_{3}PO_{4} + 3CuCl_{2} \longrightarrow Cu_{3}(PO_{4})_{2} + 6NaCl$

(b) Moles of CuCl₂

$\text{Moles of CuCl}_{2} =\text{ 16.7 mL CuCl}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{0.200 mmol CCl}_{2}}{\text{1 mL CuCl}_{2}} = \text{3.340 mmol CuCl}_{2}$

(c) Moles of Na₃PO₄

The molar ratio is 2 mmol Na₃PO₄:3 mmol CuCl₂

$\text{Moles of Na$_{3}$PO}_{4} = \text{3.340 mmol CuCl}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}}{\text{3 mmol CuCl}_{2}} =\text{2.227 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}$

(d) Volume of Na₃PO₄

$V = \text{2.227 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mL Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}}{\text{0.300 mmol Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}} = \text{7.42 mL Na$_{3}$PO}_{4} \\\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{7.42 mL Na$_{3}$PO}_{4}}$}$

Part 2. Net ionic equation

(a) Molecular equation

$\rm 2Na_{3}PO_{4}(\text{aq}) + 3CuCl_{2}(\text{aq}) \longrightarrow Cu_{3}(PO_{4})_{2}(\text{s}) + 6NaCl(\text{aq})$

(b) Ionic equation

You write molecular formulas for the solids, and you write the soluble ionic substances as ions.

According to the solubility rules, metal phosphates are insoluble.

6Na⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3Cu²⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq) ⟶ Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6Na⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq)

(c) Net ionic equation

To get the net ionic equation, you cancel the ions that appear on each side of the ionic equation.

6Na⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) + 3Cu²⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq) ⟶ Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6Na⁺(aq) + 6Cl⁻(aq)

The net ionic equation is

3Cu²⁺(aq) + 2PO₄³⁻(aq) ⟶ Cu₃(PO₄)₂(s)

Explain, in terms of particles, what happens when methane boils and why

Ronch [10]

Answer:Butane > ethane > methane, because between bigger molecules there are stronger van der Waals forces and also higher molar mass means they need to be given more energy to have enough kinetic energy to move quickly, freely in gas.

There are multiple butene isomers (Butene) and some (2-Butenes - cis and trans) actually have higher boiling point than n-Butane (there is also Isobutane, of course, with quite much lower boiling point than all of them) and some (1-Butene, Isobutylene) have lower, so this isn't really a fair or simple question. But on simplest level, it can again be said that 1-butene has lower boiling point because it has very similar shape but slightly lower molar mass (2H less) than n-butane.

"calculate the h+ in a solution that has a ph of 8.73"

alexdok [17]

The H+ in a solution that has a Ph of 8.73 is calculate as follows

Ph is always = - log (H+)

H+ = 10^-Ph

H+ is therefore = 10 ^- 8.73
H+ = 1.86 x10^-9 M
