You find a little bit (0.150g) of a chemical marked Tri-Nitro-Toluene, and upon combusting it in oxygen, collect 0.204 g of CO2

and 0.030 g H2O (we’ll assume that these are the products, along with nitrogen). You know that TNT is made up solely of C, H, O, and N, and that it contains 18.5% nitrogen by mass.

1) Answer is: the formula is C₇N₃O₆H₅.

M(TNT) = 0.150 g; mass of the trinitrotoluene.

ω(N) = 18.5% ÷ 100%.

ω(N) = 0.185; mass percentage of the nitrogen.

m(N) = 0.150 g · 0.185.

m(N) = 0.02775 ·; mass of the nitrogen.

n(N) = 0.02775 g ÷ 14 g/mol.

n(N) = 0.002 mol; amount of the nitrogen.

n(CO₂) = 0.204 g ÷ 44 g/mol.

n(CO₂) = 0.0046 mol.

n(C) = n(CO₂) = 0.0046 mol; amount of the carbon.

m(C) = 0.0046 mol · 12 g/mol.

m(C) = 0.0552 g; mass of the carbon.

n(H₂O) = 0.030 g ÷ 18 g/mol.

n(H₂O) = 0.00166 mol.

n(H) = 2 · n(H₂O) = 0.0033 mol; amount of the hydrogen.

m(H) = 0.0033 mol · 1 g/mol.

m(H) = 0.0033 g; mass of the hydrogen.

2) m(O) = m(TNT) - m(N) - m(C) - m(H).  

m(O) = 0.150 g - 0.02775 g - 0.0552 g - 0.0033 g.

m(O) = 0.06375 g.

n(O) = 0.06375 g ÷ 16 g/mol.

n(O) = 0.004 mol; amount of oxygen.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 0.0046 mol : 0.002 mol : 0.004 mol : 0.0033 mol.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 2.33 : 1 : 2 : 1.66 /×3.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 7 : 3 : 6 : 5.

Which of the following represents the least number of molecues?
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Answer: a) 20g of H2O (18.02 g/mol) molecules=6.68x10^23

Explanation:

In order to find the amount of molecules of each of the options, we need to follow the following equation.

molecules=\frac{mass(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{atomic weight(g/mol)}

So, let´s get the number of molecules for each of the options.

a) molecules=\frac{20(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{18.02(g/mol)}=6.68x10^{23}molecules

b) molecules=\frac{77(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{16.06(g/mol)}=2.89x10^{24}molecules

c) molecules=\frac{68(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{42.09(g/mol)}=9.73x10^{23}molecules

d) molecules=\frac{100(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{44.02(g/mol)}=1.37x10^{24}molecules

d) molecules=\frac{84(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{20.01(g/mol)}=2.53x10^{24}molecules

the smalest number is in option a)

Best of luck.

Galina-37 [17]
I believe the answer is C. The bonds in the compound magnesium sulfate is ionic and covalent. Magnesium sulfate is soluble in water. When the said compound is dissolved in water, it dissociates into magnesium ions and sulfate ions. However, the bonds that held together the sulfate ions is covalent.

larisa86 [58]
When water freezes into ice, some of the properties have change. What stays the same.




Answer: 1: Ice Melting is a physical change. When liquid water (H2O) freezes into a solid state (ice), it appears changed; However, this change is only physical as the the composition of the constituent molecules is the same: 11.19% hydrogen and 88.81% oxygen by mass.
