Calcium carbonate has the formula: CaCO3
From the periodic table:
mass of calcium = 40 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Therefore,
molar mass of CaCO3 = 40 + 12 + 3(16) = 100 grams
molar mass of carbonate = 12 + 3(16) = 60 grams
One mole of calcium carbonate contains one mole of carbonate. Therefore, 100 grams of CaCO3 contains 60 grams of CO3.
If the 0.5376 grams of the unknown substance is CaCO3, then the amount of carbonate will be:
amount of carbonate = (0.5376*60) / 100 = 0.32256 grams
Based on the above calculations, the sample is not CaCO3
When two atoms of the same element are covalently bonded, the radius of each atom will be half the distance between the two nuclei because they equally attract the electrons. The reason for this trend is that the bigger the radii, the further the distance between the two nuclei. Hope this helps:)
Lipids serve as structural components of cell membranes, function as energy storehouses, and function as important signalling molecules. They include fats, waxes, oils, hormones, and certain components of membranes and function as energy-storage molecules and chemical messengers.
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
I hope this helps, sorry if it doesnt. Not really good with chemistry, hope you have a great day/night :}
Explanation:
A mole (mol) is the amount of a substance that contains 6.02 × 10 23 representative particles of that substance.
12.00 g C-12 = 1 mol C-12 atoms = 6.022 × 1023 atoms • The number of particles in 1 mole is called Avogadro's Number (6.0221421 x 1023).
