Answer:

16:1

Explanation:

Atoms of element X weigh 32 times more than atoms of element Y. We can write this in a symbolic way.

mX = 32 mY   [1]

where,

  • mX and mY are the masses of X and Y, respectively

A compound has the formula: XY₂, that is, in 1 molecule of XY₂ there is 1 atom of X and 2 atoms of Y. The ratio of the mass of X to the mass of Y in this compound equals:

mX/2 mY  [2]

If we substitute [1] in [2], we get:

mX/2 mY = 32 mY/2 mY = 16 = 16:1

Liula [17]

Answer:

The total pressure is 0,804 atm

Explanation:

We use Dalton's law according to which the sum of the partial pressures is equal to the total pressure of a gas mixture. We convert the pressure in Pascals to atmosphere (it can also be done in reverse):

101300Pa ----1 atm

4500Pa----x= (4500Pa x 1atm)/101300Pa= 0,044 atm

P total= p1 + p2= 0,76 atm + 0,044 atm=0,804 atm

Convert 3.01 x 10^24 molecules of ammonium sulfate to mass
Dmitry [639]

Mass  of ammonium sulfate = 660.7 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

3.01 x 10²⁴ molecules of ammonium sulfate

Required

mass

Solution

The mole is the number of particles(molecules, atoms, ions) contained in a substance  

1 mol = 6.02.10²³ particles

Can be formulated

N=n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = Avogadro's = 6.02.10²³

mol ammonium sulfate (NH₄)₂SO₄ :

n = N : No

n = 3.01 x 10²⁴ : 6.02 x 10²³

n = 5

mass ammonium sulfate :

= mol x MW

= 5 x 132,14 g/mol

= 660.7 g
