A student makes a compound of sulfur and oxygen. She uses 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen, and all of the elemental substa
victus00 [196]
First, we apply the law of conservation of mass which states that the total mass in a system remains constant.
Therefore, there must be 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen in the product. Now, we determine the mass percentage using:

Mass % = (mass of sulfur x 100) / total mass of compound

Mass % = (5 * 100) / (5 + 4.99)

Mass % = 50.05%

The product contains 50.05% sulfur by mass.

Calculate the mass of CaCl2•2H2O required to make 100.0 mL of a 0.100 M solution. Each of the calculations below will take you t
Zolol [24]

Answer:

The mass is 1.4701 grams and the moles is 0.01.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, the volume of the solution is 100 ml or 0.1 L and the molarity of the solution is 0.100 M. The moles of the solute (in the given case calcium chloride dihydride (CaCl2. H2O) can be determined by using the formula,  

Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution in liters

Now putting the values we get,  

0.100 = moles of solute/0.1000

Moles of solute = 0.100 * 0.1000

= 0.01 moles

The mass of CaCl2.2H2O can be determined by using the formula,  

Moles = mass/molar mass

The molar mass of CaCl2.2H2O is 147.01 gram per mole. Now putting the values we get,  

0.01 = mass / 147.01

Mass = 147.01 * 0.01

= 1.4701 grams.

What is the concept of galactic recycling?
frozen [14]
Galactic recycling is a natural phenomenon in which the stars expel some gas into the space so that it would mix with the interstellar medium. As a result, this would produce new younger stars. So, basically, the concept done here is the mass and energy conservation. In order to create new species, the energy must come from another source.

the equilibrium concentration of hydroxide ion in a saturated iron(ii) hydroxide solution is 1.2 x 10^-5 M at a certain temperat
Anit [1.1K]

From the calculation as shpwn in the procedure below, the equilibrium constant of the substance is 6.9 * 10^-15.

<h3>What is equilibrium constant?</h3>

The equilibrium constant for the solubility of aa solid in solution is called the solubility product Ksp. The Ksp shows the extent to which a solid is dissolved in solution.

Given that;

Fe(OH)2 ⇄Fe^2+ + 2(OH)^-

Ksp = s(2s)^2

We have s as 1.2 x 10^-5 M

So

Ksp = 4s^3

Ksp = 4( 1.2 x 10^-5 )^3

Ksp = 6.9 * 10^-15
