Answer:

sulfide ion

Explanation:

however, when non-metalic elements gain electrons to form anions the end of their name is change to "-ide".foe example, a flourin atom gains one electronto become a flouride ion(F`) and sulfur gains two electrons to become a sulfide ion(s^2)

How many moles of phosphoric acid would be needed to produce 15 grams of water?

bekas [8.4K]

Moles of phosphoric acid would be needed : 0.833

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

15 grams of water

Required

moles of phosphoric acid

Solution

Reaction(decomposition) :

H3PO4 -> H2O + HPO3

mol water (H2O :

= mass : MW

= 15 g : 18 g/mol

= 0.833

From the equation, mol ratio H3PO4 = mol H2O = 1 : 1, so mol H3PO4 = 0.833

Convert the composition of the following alloy from atom percent to weight percent (a) 44.9 at% of silver, (b) 46.3 at% of gold,

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Mass percentage of gold : 33.35%

Mass percentage of silver: 62.80%

Mass percentage of copper : 3.85%

Explanation:

$N=n\times N_A$

Where : N = Number of atoms

n = moles

$N_A=6.022\times 10^{23}$ = Avogadro number

Let the total atoms present in the alloy be 100.

Atom percentage of silver = 44.9%

Atoms of of silver = 44.9% of 100 atoms = 44.9

Atomic weight of silver = 107.87 g/mol

Mass of 44.9 silver atoms = 107.87 g/mol × 44.9 = 4,843.363 g/mol

Atom percentage of gold= 46.3%

Atoms of of gold = 46.3% of 100 atoms = 46.3

Atomic weight of gold = 196.97 g/mol

Mass of 44.9 gold atoms = 196.97 g/mol × 46.3 = 9,119.711 g/mol

Atom percentage of copper = 8.8 %

Atoms of of copper = 8.8% of 100 atoms = 8.8

Atomic weight of copper = 63.55 g/mol

Mass of 44.9 copper atoms = 63.55 g/mol × 8.8 = 559.24 g/mol

Total mass of an alloy :4,843.363 g/mol + 9,119.711 g/mol + 559.24 g/mol

Mass percentage of gold :

$\frac{4,843.363 g/mol}{4,843.363 g/mol + 9,119.711 g/mol + 559.24 g/mol}\times 100=33.35 \%$

Mass percentage of silver:

$\frac{9,119.711 g/mol}{4,843.363 g/mol + 9,119.711 g/mol + 559.24 g/mol}\times 100=62.80\%$

Mass percentage of copper :

$\frac{559.24 g/mol}{4,843.363 g/mol + 9,119.711 g/mol + 559.24 g/mol}\times 100=3.85\%$
