Calculate the percentage by mass of cerium in cerium carbonate​

Chemistry
1 answer:
levacccp [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

60.88%

Explanation:

The <em>formula for cerium carbonate</em> is Ce₂(CO₃)₃.

Let's <u>assume we have 1 mol of cerium carbonate</u>. The total mass would be equal to the molar mass of Ce₂(CO₃)₃, 460.25 g/mol.

Out of those 460.25 g, the mass <u>corresponding to cerium would be</u>:

  • 2 * Molar mass of Ce = 2 * 140.11 g/mol = 280.22 g

Now we can <u>calculate the percentage by mass of cerium</u>:

  • % mass = 280.22 / 460.25 * 100% = 60.88%

How many neutrons are in the nucleus of an atom that has an atomic mass of 36 and an atomic number of 25?
elixir [45]

Answer:

Neutrons = 11

Explanation:

To get the number of neurons an element has you have to subtract the number of protons from the atomic mass of that element.

The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of that element.

Atomic number = Number of Protons

So the number of protons is 25

Neutrons = Atomic mass - Number of Protons

Neutrons = 36 - 25

Neutrons = 11
