Answer:
Zn3P2O8
Explanation:
In this particular question, it is necessary to convert the respective masses to percentages. We convert to percentages by placing each mass over the total mass and multiplying by 100%. Since the total is 50mg, conversion to percentage can be done by multiplying the masses by 2 as 100/50 is 2
For Oxygen = 16.58 * 2 = 33.16%
For phosphorus = 8.02 * 2 = 16.04%
For zinc = 25.40 * 2 = 50.80%
We then proceed to divide these percentages by their respective atomic masses. The atomic mass of oxygen, phosphorus and zinc are 16, 31 and 65 respectively.
O = 33.16/16 = 2.0725
P = 16.04/31 = 0.5174
Zn = 50.80/65 = 0.7815
Now, we divide by the smallest value which is that of the phosphorus
O = 2.0725/0.5174 = 4
P = 0.5174/0.5174 = 1
Zn= 0.7815/0.5174 = 1.5
Now, we need to multiply through by 2. This yields: O = 8, P = 2 and Zn = 3
The empirical formula is thus: Zn3P2O8
I cant entirely tell for now but an article on rodioactivity should solve the problem
A coordination number can be determined by the usage of an atom towards a molecule from seeing how many numbers of atoms would have to be combined together in an atom.
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
B. 3/2
<h3><u> Explanation;</u></h3>
Balance the chemical equation
2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3
We want to convert moles of AlCl3 to moles of Cl2
The conversion factor is 2 mol AlCl3/3 mol Cl2.
We choose the one that makes the units cancel:
x mol AlCl3 x (3 mol Cl3)/(2mol AlCl3) = x mol Al
The fraction for the molar ratio is 3/2.
That is only the combustion of a hydrocarbon. Rust is a combustion reaction because oxygen is added.
Fe(s) + O2(g) => FeO2(s)
