Calculate the molar mass of Ca3P2 in grams per mole or search for a chemical formula or substance.
torisob [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Ca - 66%, P - 34%

Explanation:

So, this is the formula we can use to find the amount of each element:

Element count * Atomic mass = Mass

Plug in our elements for this:

Ca - 3*40.078=120.234

P - 2*30.973=61.946

Now, to find the percentage of mass, we must find total mass, and divide the two elements mass count by this total mass:

120.234+61.946=182.18

Now divide each element mass by the total mass:

Ca - 120.234/182.18=0.6599(Round to 0.65)

P - 61.946/182.18=0.34002(Round to 0.34)

Then multiply both numbers by 100 to get the percentage:

Ca - 65%

P - 34%

So these our your two answer!

Hope this helps!

How much heat is released when 24.8 g of ch4 is burned in excess oxygen gas?
balu736 [363]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

How much heat is produced when 24.8 g of CH_4 is burned in excess oxygen gas

Given: CH _4
+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O  ΔH= −802 kJ.

Answer: 1243.1 kJ

Explanation:

Heat of combustion is the amount of heat released on complete combustion of 1 mole of substance.

Given :

Amount of heat released on combustion of  1 mole of methane = 802 kJ kJ/mol

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at NTP, weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

1 mole of CH_4 weighs = 16 g  

Thus we can say:  

16 g of CH_4 on combustion releases heat = 802 kJ

Thus 24.8 g of CH_4 on combustion releases =\frac{802}{16}\times 24.8=1243.1kJ

Thus heat released when 24.8 g of methane is burned in excess oxygen gas is 1243.1 kJ
