Answer:

0.52 mol

Explanation:

Using the general gas equation formula:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (Liters)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

At STP (standard temperature and pressure), temperature of a gas is 273K, while its pressure is 1 atm

Using PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n = (1 × 11.74) ÷ (0.0821 × 273)

n = 11.74 ÷ 22.41

n = 0.52 mol

There are 0.52 moles in the basketball

Nataly [62]

The main constituent of gallstones is cholesterol. Cholesterol may have a role in heart attacks and blood clot formation. Its elemental percentage composition is 83.87% C, 11.99% H, and 4.14% O. It has a molecular weight of 386.64 amu. Empirical formula is C₃H₄O₁ and Molecular formula is 7(C₃H₄O₁).

<h3>What is Empirical Formula ?</h3>

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in given compound.

Element   %   Atomic mass   Relative no. of atoms  Simplest whole ratio

C            83.87       12                     \frac{83.87}{12} = 6.98                   \frac{6.98}{0.25} = 3

H            11.99         1                       \frac{11.99}{1} = 11.09                  \frac{11.09}{0.25} = 4

O            4.14          16                      \frac{4.14}{16} = 0.25                    \frac{0.25}{0.25} = 1

Thus the empirical formula is C₃H₄O₁.

<h3>How to find the Molecular formula of compound ?</h3>

Molecular formula = Empirical formula × n

n = \frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{\text{Empirical formula weight}}

  = \frac{386.64}{56}

  = 7

Molecular formula = Empirical formula × n

                               = 7 (C₃H₄O₁)

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The main constituent of gallstones is cholesterol. Cholesterol may have a role in heart attacks and blood clot formation. Its elemental percentage composition is 83.87% C, 11.99% H, and 4.14% O. It has a molecular weight of 386.64 amu. Empirical formula is C₃H₄O₁ and Molecular formula is 7(C₃H₄O₁).

Suzy uses an italian salad dressing on her lunch. This ____________ mixture is a suspension of oil and vinegar. Question 19 opti
padilas [110]

This <u>heterogeneous </u>mixture is a suspension of oil and vinegar

A mixture is a physical combination of two or more substances and each of these substances preserves its identity and form in the mixture.

A homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which is one substance thoroughly dissolves in the other and its composition is uniform throughout the solution. e.g salt and water.

A heterogeneous mixture is one in the two substances form two layers and their composition varies throughout the mixture.

From the given information, the mixture of oil and vinegar is an example of a heterogeneous mixture.

PLEASE HELP ASAP I'M SO STRESSED
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

160.3g

Explanation:

We know the equation:

No of moles = mass ÷ Mass of element

We need to find the mass, so make mass the subject of the formula.

Mass = No. of moles × mass of element

Mass = 5 × 32.06

Mass = 160.3g

How many sulfur atoms are there in 21.0 g of al2s3?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Given the mass of aluminum sulfideAl_{2}S_{3} = 21.0 g

Molar mass of Al_{2}S_{3} = 2 * Molar mass of Al + 3 *molar mass of S = 2(27g/mol)+3(32.g/mol)=150.g/mol

Calculating the moles of Al_{2}S_{3}:

21.0 g *\frac{1 mol}{150 g} = 0.14 mol Al_{2}S_{3}

Each mole Al_{2}S_{3} has 3 mol S.

Each mole S constitutes 6.022*10^{23} atoms of S

Calculating atoms of S in 0.14 mol Al_{2}S_{3}:

0.14 mol Al_{2}S_{3} *\frac{3mol S}{1 mol Al_{2}S_{3}  }*\frac{6.022*10^{23}atoms S }{1 mol S}

= 2.53 * 10^{23} atoms of S

How many atoms of phosphorus are in 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22  phosphorus atoms

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

tetraphosphorus decoxide = P4O10

Molar mass of P4O10 = 283.89 g/mol

Mass of P4O10 = 4.5 grams

Number of Avogadro = 6.022 * 10^23 / mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of P4O10

Moles P4O10 = mass P4O10 / molar mass P4O10

Moles P4O10 = 4.5 grams / 283.89 g/mol

Moles = 0.016 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of P

For 1 mol P4O10 we have 4 moles of phosphorus

For 0.016 moles P4O10 we have 4*0.016 = 0.064 moles P

Step 4: Calculate number of P atoms

Number of P atoms = moles P * number of Avogadro

Number of P atoms = 0.064 moles * 6.022*10^23

Number of P atoms = 3.85 * 10^22 atoms

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22  phosphorus atoms
