Calculate the percent composition by mass of iron in Fe(NO3)3

Chemistry

6 0

Answer:

It's 23.14 percent

Explanation:

First, the mass of all the elements are:

N = 14

O = 16

Fe = 56

In this molecule you have 3 atoms of N, and 9 atoms of O, so:

3•14 = 42

16•9 = 144

The whole mass of the molecule is:

56 + 42 + 144 = 242

242/100 = 2.42, so 1% is 2.42

56/2.42 = 23.14%

7. I have 2.50 x 1023 atoms of titanium. How many moles of titanium dol<br> have?

algol13

Answer:

0.42mole

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of atoms of titanium = 2.5 x 10²³atoms

Unknown:

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we must understand that a mole of any substance contains the Avogadro's number of particles.

6.02 x 10²³ atoms makes up 1 mole of an atom

2.5 x 10²³ atoms will contain $\frac{2.5 x 10^{23} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }$ = 0.42mole

2. 2NaCl ⇒2Na + Cl2

Required

Type of reaction

Solution

Equation 1 : A single replacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

General formula :

A + BC ⇒ AC + B

Equation 2 : the decomposition reaction of a compound into its constituent elements or compounds

General formula :

AB ⇒ A + B

In reality, a hydrate of iron(III) nitrate had to be used, not the anhydrous salt. As you may guess, some of the hydrate’s mass

liq [111]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate is 16.2 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of $Fe(NO_3)_3$ = 0.0020 M

Volume of solution = 2 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0200M=\frac{\text{Moles of }Fe(NO_3)_3}{2L}\\\\\text{Moles of }Fe(NO_3)_3=(0.0200mol/L\times 2L)=0.04mol$

The chemical equation for the decomposition of hydrated iron (III) nitrate follows:

$Fe(NO_3)_3.9H_2O\rightarrow Fe(NO_3)_3+9H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of iron (III) nitrate is produced from 1 mole of hydrated iron (III) nitrate

So, 0.04 moles of iron (III) nitrate will be produced from = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.04=0.04mol$ of hydrated iron (III) nitrate

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Molar mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate = 404.0 g/mol

Moles of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate = 0.04 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.04mol=\frac{\text{Mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate}}{404.0g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate}=(0.04mol\times 404.0g/mol)=16.2g$

Hence, the mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate is 16.2 g
