Scientist typically use the international system of measurements, or the metric system. If you mean English as in England, then yes.<span> The United States' system of measurement is not usually used by scientists.</span>
I'm confused... is there more info?
To solve this problem, we must assume ideal gas behaviour so
that we can use Graham’s law:
vA / vB = sqrt (MW_B / MW_A)
where,
<span>vA = speed of diffusion of A (HBR)</span>
vB = speed of diffusion of B (unknown)
MW_B = molecular weight of B (unkown)
MW_A = molar weight of HBr = 80.91 amu
We know from the given that:
vA / vB = 1 / 1.49
So,
1/1.49 = sqrt (MW_B / 80.91)
MW_B = 36.44 g/mol
Since this unknown is also hydrogen halide, therefore this
must be in the form of HX.
HX = 36.44 g/mol , therefore:
x = 35.44 g/mol
From the Periodic Table, Chlorine (Cl) has a molar mass of
35.44 g/mol. Therefore the hydrogen halide is:
HCl
Km is the biggest measure in width (even if there are bigger measures like Mm, Gm, Tm).
1 Km = 1000 m, 100000 cm and 1000000 mm
The percentage composition of CF4 is %C = 13.64% and %F = 86.36%
The solution are as follows:
Molar mass of CF4 = 88
<span>molar mass of C = 12 </span>
<span>molar mass of F = 4x19 = 76 </span>
<span>% C = 12/88 x 100 = 13.64% </span>
<span>% F = 76/88 x 100 = 86.36%</span>
