First calculate for the molar mass of the given formula unit, CaCO₃. This can be done by adding up the product when the number of atom is multiplied to its individual molar mass as shown below.

     molar mass of CaCO₃ = (1 mol Ca)(40 g Ca/mol Ca) + (1 mol C)(12 g of C/1 mol of C) + (3 mols of O)(16 g O/1 mol O) = 100 g/mol of CaCO₃

Then, divide the given amount of substance by the calculated molar mass.
            number of moles = (20 g)(1 mol of CaCO₃/100 g)
             number of moles = 0.2 moles of CaCO₃

<em>Answer: 0.2 moles</em>

Part d based on your answer to part c, how many bonding electrons and lone pair electrons (nonbonding electrons) are there in th
elena55 [62]
The Lewis Structure of HCN is shown below,

Number of Bonding Electrons:
                                               In HCN Hydrogen is bonded to Carbon through single bond and Nitrogen is bonded to Carbon through Triple Bond. Single bond is formed by two bonding electrons, while, triple bond is formed by six bonding electrons, Hence,

                               Number of Bonding Electrons  =  8

Number of Non-Bonding Electrons:
                                                            In HCN there is only one lone pair of electron present on Nitrogen atom which is not taking part in bonding. Hence, 
                              Number of Non-Bonding Electrons  =  2

Result:

                               Number of Bonding Electrons  =  8

                              Number of Non-Bonding Electrons  =  2

Another carbon isotope has six protons and seven neutrons in its nucleus. What do you think this carbon isotope is called?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Carbon - 13

Explanation:

For most of the elements other than that of hydrogen, the isotopes are named for the mass number.

Example : Carbon atoms with 6 neutrons have mass number of 12 ( as 6\ protons +6\ neutrons=12 ), so they are known as carbon-12.

Given that:

Protons = 6

Neutrons = 7

Mass = 6 + 7 = 13

So the name is Carbon - 13 . The symbol is ^{13}_{6}C

If the molar absorptivity constant for the red dye solution is 5.56×104 M-1cm-1, calculate the molarity of the red dye solution
Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:

a) Using Beer-Lambert's law :

Formula used :

A=\epsilon \times c\times l

where,

A = absorbance of solution = 0.945

c = concentration of solution = ?

l = length of the cell = 1.20 cm

\epsilon = molar absorptivity of this solution =5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}

0.945=5.56\times 10^4 M^{-1} cm^{-1}\times 1.20 \times c

c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=14.16 \mu M

(1\mu M=10^{-6} M)

14.16 μM is the molarity of the red dye solution at the optimal wavelength 519nm and absorbance value 0.945.

b) c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} mol/L

1 L of solution contains 1.4163\times 10^{-5} moles of red dye.

Mass of 1.4163\times 10^{-5} moles of red dye:

1.4163\times 10^{-5}\times 879.86g/mol=0.01246 g

(w/v)\%=\frac{\text{Mass of solute (g)}}{\text{Volume of solvent (mL)}}\times 100

red(w/v)\%=\frac{0.01246 g}{1000 mL}\times 100=0.001246\%

c) In order to dilute red dye solution by 5 times, we will need to add 1 L of water to solution of given concentration.

Concentration of red dye solution = c=1.4163\times 10^{-5} M

Concentration of red solution after dilution = c'

c=c'\times 5

1.4163\times 10^{-5} M=c'\times 5

c'=2.83\times 10^{-6} M

The final concentration of the diluted solution is 2.83\times 10^{-6} M
