A divalent metal oxide contains 60 % of metal. What is atomic weight of metal ?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
kow [346]2 years ago

Atomic weight of metal : 24

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Proust states the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison so that compounds have a fixed composition of elements

Divalent metal oxide=XO

MW O = 16

MW XO₂ =  X+16

\tt \%mass=\dfrac{Ar~X}{X+16}\times 100\%\\\\0.6=\dfrac{X}{X+16}\\\\0.6(X+16)=X\\\\0.6X+9.6=X\\\\0.4X=9.6\rightarrow X=24

A mixture of three noble gases has a total pressure of 1.25 atm. The individual pressures exerted by neon and argon are 0.68
FinnZ [79.3K]

First of all, as you seen the gases are noble which means that will not react with each other and in this case each gas create individual pressure.  

P_{T}= total pressure  

P_{Ne} = pressure of neon  

P_{Ar} = pressure of argon  

P_{He} = pressure of helium {which is required}

P_{T} = P_{Ne} + P_{Ar} + P_{He}    

1.25 = 0.68 + 0.35 +  P_{He}

P_{He}   = 1.25  - [0.68 + 0.35] = 0.22 atm

Convert mass to moles for both reactants. (Round to 2 significant figures.)
shepuryov [24]
Mass = mr x moles
Mr of CuCl2 = ( 63.5) + ( 35.5 x 2) = 134.5
2.5 = 134.5 x moles
2.5 / 134.5 = moles
Moles = 0.019 (2DP)

0.25g of Al
Mr of Al = 27
0.25 = 27 x moles
0.25/ 27 = 0.0093 moles (2sf)

Hope this helps :)

What is the molar mass, in grams, of a mole of an element equal to?
prohojiy [21]
Technically molar mass cannot be in grams, it is in grams per mole. and it refers to a specific number of molecules of a substance, therefore substances have different molar masses because the elements have different weights. for example having 10 water molecules would be a lot heavier than having 10 air molecules

In the figure below, two nonpolar molecules are interacting.Which interaction would most likely cause these molecules to repel e
Fed [463]
Two non-polar molecules are most likely to interact by
induced dipole-induced dipole interaction.

Non-polar substances do not have a permanently established charge distribution due to similar electron affinities of the atoms that are present. Moreover, due to the absence of a polar hydrogen, they cannot exhibit hydrogen bonding. They interact with one another by induced dipole-induced dipole interactions which arise from the molecules of the substances coming into close vicinity of one another.
