First, we determine the mass of each element from the data collected. We can get the mass of molybdenum Mo from the difference between the mass of crucible and molybdenum and the mass of crucible:
Mass of molybdenum = 39.52 – 38.26 = 1.26 g Mo
We can calculate for the mass of molybdenum oxide from the difference between the mass of crucible and molybdenum oxide and the mass of crucible:
Mass of molybdenum oxide = 39.84 – 38.26 = 1.58g
We can now compute for the mass of oxygen O by subtracting the mass of molybdenum from the mass of molybdenum oxide:
Mass of oxygen in molybdenum oxide = 1.58 – 1.26 = 0.32g O
To convert mass to moles, we use the molar mass of each element.
1.26 g Mo * 1 mol Mo / 95.94 g Mo = 0.0131 mol Mo
0.32 g O * 1 mol O / 15.999 g O = 0.0200 mol O
0.0131 mol is the smallest number of moles. We divide each mole value by this number:
0.0131 mol Mo / 0.0131 = 1
0.0200 mol O / 0.0131 = 1.53
Multiplying these results by 2 to get the lowest whole number ratio,
0.0131 mol Mo / 0.0131 = 1 * 2 = 2
0.0200 mol O / 0.0131 = 1.5 * 2 = 3
Thus, we can write the empirical formula as Mo2O3.
To determine strength of attractive forces between the molecules the size of the molecules, their polarity (dipole moment), and their shape. ... If two molecules have about the same size and similar shape, the dipole-dipole intermolecular attractive force increases with increasing polarity.
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock. </em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.
The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.
