5H2 :How many atoms of Hydrogen are in this formula?

How can I calculate the mass percent of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen in caffeine, C8H10N4O2.

Ahat [919]

You must first calculate the total weight of 1 mole of the substance. You do this by finding the molar weights on the periodic table of each of the elements in the compound:

$8(12.01g)+10(1.008g)+4(14.007g)+2(15.999g)=96.08g+10.08g+56.028g+31.998g=194.186g$

So now we take the amount of each element that is given in the compound and divide it by the total mass of the compound:

Carbon: 96.08g

$\frac{96.08g}{194.186g}= 0.49478=49.48$

Carbon = 49.48%

Nitrogen: 56.028g

$\frac{56.028g}{194.186g}=0.28853=28.85$

Nitrogen = 28.85%

Oxygen: 31.998g

$\frac{31.998g}{194.186g} =0.16478=16.48$

Oxygen = 16.48%

Which questions would help determine whether an article is scientifically accurate?

-BARSIC- [3]

I think it would be:
Is the author stating fact or opinion?
Does the author have evidence for the given facts?

Maybe
How many article has the author written before?

Ones you add if you wanted to is
Does the author give any sources? (Like where they got the info)

In an acid-base titration, a student uses 21.35 mL of 0.150 M NaOH to neutralize 25.00 mL of H2SO4. How many moles of acid are i

GalinKa [24]

Answer: There are 0.006 moles of acid in the flask.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 21.35 mL, $M_{1}$ = 0.150 M

$V_{2}$ = 25.0 mL, $M_{2}$ = ?

Formula used to calculate molarity of $H_{2}SO_{4}$ is as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}\\0.15 M \times 21.35 mL = M_{2} \times 25.0 mL\\M_{2} = 0.1281 M$

As molarity is the number of moles of a substance present in a liter of solution.

Total volume of solution = $V_{1} + V_{2}$

= 21.35 mL + 25.0 mL

= 46.36 mL (1 mL = 0.001 L)

= 0.04636 L

Therefore, moles of acid required are calculated as follows.

$Molarity = \frac{no. of moles}{Volume (in L)}\\0.1281 M = \frac{no. of moles}{0.04635 L}\\no. of moles = 0.006 mol$

Thus, we can conclude that there are 0.006 moles of acid in the flask.

Sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) reacts with excess oxygen gas (O2) and excess liquid water (H2O) to form liquid sulfuric acid (H2SO4).

inessss [21]

A.2SO₂ + O₂ + 2H₂O → 2H₂SO₄
B.Moles of SO₂ = 67.2 / 22.4Moles of SO₂ = 3 molesMoles of H₂SO₄ = 3 molesMass of H₂SO₄ = 3 x 98Mass of H₂SO₄ = 294 grams
Assuming sulfuric acid to have the same density as water,density = 1000 g / LVolume = mass / densityVolume = 294 / 1000Volume = 0.29 liters of sulfuric acid
