Answer:

13.5%

Explanation:

To answer this you need to understand that percentage error can never be negative as we use absolute value in the equation

To get molar/atomic mass = mass/moles

=0.3681g/(6.514×10^-3)moles

=56.509g/moles

percentage error = (65.38-56.509)/65.38 ×100

=13.56% (this is what I'm getting without rounding off your question wasn't specific on how many d.p to use)

Consider the following reaction, equilibrium concentrations, and equilibrium constant at

REY [17]

Answer:

Equilibrium concentration of $H_{2}O$ is 12.5 M

Explanation:

Given reaction: $C_{2}H_{4}+H_{2}O\rightleftharpoons C_{2}H_{5}OH$

Here, $K_{c}=\frac{[C_{2}H_{5}OH]}{[C_{2}H_{4}][H_{2}O]}$

where $K_{c}$ represents equilibrium constant in terms of concentration and species inside third bracket represent equilibrium concentrations

Here, $[C_{2}H_{4}]=0.015M$ , $[C_{2}H_{5}OH]=1.69M$ and $K_{c}=9.0$

So, $[H_{2}O]=\frac{[C_{2}H_{5}OH]}{[C_{2}H_{4}]\times K_{c}}=\frac{1.69}{0.015\times 9.0}=12.5M$

Hence equilibrium concentration of $H_{2}O$ is 12.5 M

The total volume of seawater is 1.5 x 10²¹ L. Seawater contains approximately 3.5% sodium chloride by mass. At that high of a co

garri49 [273]

Answer:

There are $5.408\times 10^{22}$ grams contained in all the seawater in the world.

Explanation:

At first let is determinate the total mass of seawater ( $m_{sw}$ ), measured in grams, in the world by definition of density and considering that mass is distributed uniformly:

$m_{sw} = \rho_{sw}\cdot V_{sw}$

Where:

$\rho_{sw}$ - Density of seawater, measured in grams per liters.

$V_{sw}$ - Volume of seawater, measured in liters.

If $V_{sw} = 1.5\times 10^{21}\,L$ and $\rho_{sw} = 1030\,\frac{g}{L}$ , then:

$m_{sw}=\left(1030\,\frac{g}{L} \right)\cdot (1.5\times 10^{21}\,L)$

$m_{sw} = 1.545\times 10^{24}\,g$

The total mass of sodium chloride is determined by the following ratio:

$r = \frac{m_{NaCl}}{m_{sw}}$

$m_{NaCl} = r\cdot m_{sw}$

Given that $m_{sw} = 1.545\times 10^{24}\,g$ and $r = 0.035$ , the total mass of sodium chloride in all the seawater in the world is:

$m_{NaCl} = 0.035\cdot (1.545\times 10^{24}\,g)$

$m_{NaCl} = 5.408\times 10^{22}\,g$

There are $5.408\times 10^{22}$ grams contained in all the seawater in the world.

HELP ME PLEASE!!!

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

A bonding that occurs between high electronegative atoms such are N, F, O and H atoms, is called a hydrogen bond. Hydrogen bond is a very strong bond. (C)

If hydrogen bonds are not formed between H atoms and N, F, O atom, then the atoms interact through dispersion forces (also known as london dispersion forces). Dispersion forces are weak and they are temporary forces formed by overlapping of orbitals. (B)
