A compound is found to contain 38.65 % carbon, 16.25 % hydrogen, and 45.09 % nitrogen by mass. what is the empirical formula for

iren [92.7K]

The molar mass of carbon is 12, hydrogen is 1, and nitrogen is 14, hence the ratio are:

C = 38.65 / 12 = 3.22

H = 16.25 / 1 = 16.25

N = 45.09 / 14 = 3.22

Divide the three by the lowest ratio which is 3.22:

C = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

H = 16.25 / 3.22 = 5

N = 3.22 / 3.22 = 1

So the empirical formula is:

.What threatens the newly hatched chicks?

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

rats. that's all i know of Just about everything except the mother hen if they are natural hatch. Even when you incubate them there are threats. The healthy chicks will mob the weak ones, the older chicks (even by a day) will pick on the younger ones. Temperature extremes will threaten them as they need warm, humid conditions with gradual drops in surrounding temps in the brooder box. Early disease is sometimes a problem and all chicks should be started on medicated chick feed for the first few weeks to prevent several digestive diseases. Even the water dispenser can be a threat as newly hatched chicks will immerse themselves in an open water container so care should be taken to supply water in a self feeding covered dish.

How many grams of water are produced when 35.8 grams of Calcium hydroxide reacts with lots of Hydrochloric acid?

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Are produced 72 grams of water in this reaction.

<h3>Mole calculation</h3>

To find the value of moles of a product from the number of moles of a reactant, it is necessary to observe the stoichiometric ratio between them:

$Ca(OH)_2 + 2HCl = > 2H_2O + CaCl_2$

Analyzing the reaction, it is possible to see that the stoichiometric ratio is 1:2, so we can perform the following expression:

$MM_{Ca(OH)_2} = 74.1g/mol$

$MM = \frac{g}{mol}$

$74.1 = \frac{35.8}{mol}\\mol = 2$

So, if there are 2 mols of Ca(OH)2:

Ca(OH)2 | H2O

$\frac{1mol}{2mol} =\frac{2mol}{xmol}$

$x = 4mol$

Finally, just find the number of grams of water using your molar mass:

$MM_{H_2O} = 18g/mol$

$18= \frac{m}{4}\\m = 72g$

So, 72 grams are produced of water in this reaction.

You determine that Lauren's EER is 2200 kcal/day. You recommend and intake of 60% CHO, 15% protein, and 25% fat. Approximately h

const2013 [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 330 g of CHO

Explanation:

Data

Calories needed = 2200 kcal/day

CHO = 60%

Proteins = 15%

Fats = 25%

Grams of carbohydrates needed = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the number of calories in 60% of 2200 kcal

2200 kcal ---------------- 100%

x --------------- 60%

x = (60 x 2200) / 100

x = 1320 kcal

2.- Calculate the grams of CHO

1 g of CHO ---------------- 4 kcal

x ---------------- 1320 kcal

x = (1320 x 1) / 4

x = 1320/4

x = 330 g of CHO

Which statement describes the Arrhenius interpretation of acids and bases?

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

D. It is limited to situations that involve aqueous solutions or specific compounds.

Explanation:

An Arrhenius acid is a substance that increases the concentration of H3O or H+ when dissolved in water. An Arrhenius base is a substance that increases the concentration of OH- when dissolved in water. These definitions tell us that D is indeed limited to situations that involve aqueous solutions or specific compounds, as aqueous means something that's dissolved in water.

A is wrong because the Bronsted-Lowry interpretation has a wider range of applications. Bronsted-Lowry acids and bases don't even need to be aqueous, so it is not limited to just aqueous solutions. They include any substance that can donate or accept a H+.

B is wrong because A is wrong. A and B basically say the same thing, that the Arrhenius interpretation has a wider range of applications than the Bronsted-Lowry interpretation.

C is wrong because the definition of an Arrhenius base is any substance that increases the concentration of OH-, or hydroxide ions. C completely counters this statement.
