How many moles are in 1.20 times 10^25 atoms of phosphorus
Stels [109]

19.927 moles are in 1.20 times 10^{25} atoms of phosphorus.

<h3>What are moles?</h3>

A mole is defined as 6.02214076 ×10^{23} of some chemical unit, be it atoms, molecules, ions, or others.

1 mole of any substance contain Avogadro's number of molecules so we can calculate the number of moles by dividing the provided number of atoms over Avogadro's number to obtain the number of moles .

Moles= \frac{Atoms}{\;Avogadro's \;number }

Moles=  1.20 X 10^{25} atoms ÷ 6.022 X 10^{23}

= 19.927

Hence, 19.927 moles are in 1.20 times 10^{25} atoms of phosphorus.

The principal component of mothballs is naphthalene, a compound with a molecular mass of about 130 amu, containing only carbon a
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Empirical formula = C5H4

Molecular formula = C10H8

Explanation:

When the 3000 mg of naphthalene are burned they produce 10.3 mg of CO2. Knowing the unbalanced equation of the combustion of naphthalene, we have:

CxHy + O2 = CO2 + H2O

We calculate the molar composition of the sample. We look for the molecular weights in the periodic table:

CO2 = 12,011 + 2 (15,999) = 44,009 g

Mol C = 10.3 mg * (1 mol CO2 / 44.009 g CO2) * (1 mol C / 1 mol CO2) = 0.234 mmol C

Mass C = 0.234 mmol C * (12.011 g C / 1 mol C) = 2.8105 mg C

Mass H = 3 mg - 2.8105 mg = 0.1895 mg H

Mol H = 0.1895 mg H * (1 mol H / 1,008 g H) = 0.188 mmol H

To calculate the empirical formula, we must divide the number of moles of each element by the smallest number of moles, in this case, of hydrogen:

C = 0.2340 mmol C / 0.1895 mol H = 1.25

H = 0.1895 mmol H / 0.1895 mmol H = 1

We multiply the coefficients by 4, and we have the empirical formula:

C1.25 * 4H1 * 4 = C5H4

The molecular formula is equal to (C5H4)m, where m is calculated by the molecular and empirical mass ratio, as follows:

Empirical mass = (5 * 12.011) + (4 * 1.008) = 64.09 g

m = 130 g / 64.09 g = 2.02 = 2

Therefore we have the molecular formula:

(C5H4)2 = C10H8

How many electrons will each element gain or lose in forming an ion?
Amanda [17]
It depends on the number of valence electrons required to make octet or duplet( in case of H). For example, Nitrogen(atomic number = 7) has electronic configuration(2,5) which means nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and requires 3 more electrons to complete its octet. After gaining 3 electrons from atoms of an element with less electronegativity than N, it forms nitride ion (N ^{-3}). Hope this helps.
