Answer:

i hope this helps

Magma in the Earth's mantle moves in convection currents. The hot core heats the material above it, causing it to rise toward the crust, where it cools. The heat comes from the intense pressure on the rock, combined with the energy released from natural radioactive decay of elements.

Which of the following statements is false concerning the formula of a compound?

aalyn [17]

Answer:

B. The number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.

Explanation:

It is not always true that the number of atoms in a molecular formula is always greater than the number of atoms in an empirical formula.

The chemical formulae of a compound are of two main types;

The empirical formula is that which expresses the composition of a compound in the simplest whole number ratio.
The molecular formula shows the actual ratio of the atoms in a compound.

Sometimes the number of atoms in the molecular and empirical formula can be the same.

Also, the number of atoms in the molecular formula is always greater than that of the empirical formula when they are not the same.

How many are molecules ( or formula) in each sample?

andre [41]

Answer:

$4.010 \times 10^{25} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3} \text { present in } 55.93 \mathrm{kg} \text { of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}$
$16.86 \times 10^{26} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4} \text { present in } 459 \mathrm{kg}\left(4.59 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{gm}\right) \text { of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$

Explanation:

Number of molecules for $55.93 \mathrm{kg} \text { of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}$

$\text { Firstly molar mass is calculated of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}:$

Atomic mass of Na + H + C + 3(O) = 22.99 + 1.008 + 12.01 + 3 × 16.00 = 84.00 g/mol

$\text { Number of molecules of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3} \text { in } 55.93 \text { kg are as follows: }$

$55.93 \times\left(10^{3} \mathrm{gm}\right) \times \frac{1 \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}}{84.00 \mathrm{gm} \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}} \times\left(6.022 \times 10^{23} \mathrm{molecules} \text { i.e Avogadro number }\right)$

$=4.010 \times 10^{26} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3} \text { present in } 55.93 \mathrm{kg} \text { of } \mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}$

Number of molecules for for $\left(4.59 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{gm}\right) \text { of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$

$\text { Firstly molar mass is calculated of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$

= Atomic mass of 3(Na) + P + 4(O)

= 3(22.99) + 30.97 + 4(16.00) = 163.94 g/mol

$459 \times\left(10^{3} \mathrm{gm}\right) \times \frac{1 \mathrm{mol} N a_{3} P O_{4}}{163.94 \mathrm{gm} N a_{3} P O_{4}} \times\left(6.022 \times 10^{23} \mathrm{molecules} \text { i.e Avogadro number) } / 1 \mathrm{mol}\right.$

$=16.86 \times 10^{26} \text { molecules of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4} \text { present in } 459 \mathrm{kg}\left(4.59 \times 10^{5} \mathrm{gm}\right) \text { of } \mathrm{Na}_{3} \mathrm{PO}_{4}$
