The percentage of elements in the compound is determined from the number of elements in the compound

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Proust states the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison so that compounds have a fixed composition of elements

\tt \%A~in~A_xB_y=\dfrac{x\times Ar~A}{MW~A_xB_y}\times 100\%

\tt \%B~in~A_xB_y=\dfrac{y\times Ar~B}{MW~A_xB_y}\times 100\%

Example

% Lithium (Li) in Li₂CO₃(lithium carbonate)

Ar of Li = 6.941 g/mol

MW of  Li₂CO₃  = 73.891 g/mol

\tt \%Li=\dfrac{2.Ar~Li}{MW~Li_2CO_3}\times 100\%\\\\\%Li=\dfrac{2\times 6.941}{73.891}\times 100\%=18.79\%

how many milliliters of 1.50 m hno3 contain enough nitric acid to dissolve an old copper penny with a mass of 3.94 g?
Lerok [7]
Molar mass HNO₃ = 63.0 g/mol

number of moles = 3.94 / 63.0 => 0.0625 moles

Volume = moles / molarity

V = 0.0625 / 1.50

V = 0.04166 L x 1000 = 41.66 mL

hope this helps!

An ice cube is placed in 80 mL of 70oC water. When the ice melts the temperature of the water is 60oC. a. How much energy was ne
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

800 degrees C g, I found this answer by using the formula to find how much energy was need to melt the ice. First you figure out the temperature change of ur ice (starting temp and ur final temp), and then you times that with the mass of the water.

What is relative isotopic mass
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Relative atomic mass or atomic weight is a dimensionless physical quantity defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element in a given sample to the atomic mass constant. The atomic mass constant is defined as being 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.

I need help please, thanks!
oee [108]

Answer:

This question is somehow not clear, because a typical human eye can notice objects which have wavelengths from about 380 to 740 nanometers. This is called visible spectrum (the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye). Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light or simply light.

Someone even can see extra colors - they able to see beyond the visible spectrum. The reason that the human eye can see the spectrum is because those specific wavelengths stimulate the retina in the human eye. The human retina can only detect incident light that falls in waves from about 380 to 740 nanometers long, so we can’t see microwave or ultraviolet wavelengths. This also applies to infrared lights which has wavelengths longer than visible and shorter than microwaves, thus being invisible to the human eye.

In conclusion, the human eye can not notice that objects with wavelength not in the range of 380 to 740 nanometers.
