Answer:

69.55 (w/w) %

Explanation:

When NaHCO3 reacts with an acid HA, the reaction that occurs is:

NaHCO3 + HA → H2O + NaA + CO2

<em>Where 1 mole of NaHCO3 produce 1 mole of CO2</em>

<em />

Thus, we need to convert the mass of CO2 to moles using its molar mass (44g/mol). Then, based on the chemical equation, moles of CO2 produced are equal to moles of NaHCO3 in the mixture. With its molar mass -84g/mol- we can find the mass of NaHCO3 and mass percent:

<em>Moles CO2:</em>

0.561g * (1mol / 44g) = 0.01275 moles CO2 = Moles NaHCO3.

<em>Mass NaHCO3:</em>

0.01275 moles * (84g/mol) = 1.071g NaHCO3

<em>Mass percent:</em>

1.071g NaHCO3 / 1.54g sample * 100

<h3>69.55 (w/w) %</h3>

All crystals have the same internal arrangement of atoms. <br> a. True<br> b. False
zhenek [66]
B - False. The crystals have the same internal arrangement of atoms in the same species. For example, all crystals of quartz (Onion, Amethyst, Citrine, Smoky) have the same trigonometrical arrangement.

the atoms in salt (NaCl) are arranged in a cubic way.
