Calculate the mass percentage of the sulfate ion in MgSO4.

Chemistry
1 answer:
andriy [413]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is 80%

Explanation:

Data

mass percent of SO₄⁻²

molecule  MgSO₄

Process

1.- Calculate the molecular mass of magnesium nitrate

molecular mass = (1 x 24) + (1 x 32) + (4 x 16)

                           = 24 + 32 + 64

                           = 120 g

2.- Calculate the molecular mass of sulfate ion

molecular mass = (1 x 32) + (4 x 16)

                          = 32 + 64

                          = 96

3.- Write a proportion to solve this problem

                    120 g of MgSO₄ ---------------- 100 %

                      96 g of SO₄⁻²   ---------------  x

                      x = (96 x 100) / 120

                      x = 80 %

How many atomic orbitals of each type mix to form hybrid orbitals of the central atom in cl2o?
lidiya [134]

In here Oxygen is the central atom. It makes two bonds with Cl and has two lone pairs. Since, the shape is bent and the hybridization is sp3. Molecular geometry is a bit dissimilar from hybridization. Hybridization is reliant on the number of bonds and lone pairs. Since O has two bonds with Cl, its hybridization is sp3. It is like is this: 1 lone pair/bond = s. 2 lone pairs/bond = sp 3 lone pairs/bonds = sp2, etc. molecular geometry, you count the number of bonds and lone pairs. This has two bonds and 2 lone pairs so if they were all bonds, the molecule would be tetrahedral.

Four gases were combined in a gas cylinder with these partial pressures: 3.5 atm N2, 2.8 atm O2, 0.25 atm Ar, and 0.15 atm He.
Goryan [66]

Answer:

This can be solved using Dalton's Law of Partial pressures. This law states that the total pressure exerted by a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressure of each gas in the mixture as if it exist alone in a container. In order to solve, we need the partial pressures of the gases given. Calculations are as follows:

Explanation:

P = 3.00 atm + 2.80 atm + 0.25 atm + 0.15 atm

P = 6.8 atm

3.5 atm = x (6.8 atm)

x = 0.51
