Answer:
Oxygen
Explanation:
Water's formula is H20. Which is two hydrogen and one oxygen.
17) 8.4 / 20 x 100
18) 20 . 0.5150
19) 6,50% because (as you said) the law of definite proportions states that regardless of the amount, a compound is always composed of the same elements in the same proportion by mass
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The amount of energy released or absorbed is equal the product of the mass, the specific heat capacity and the temperature change. The temperature change being the difference between the final and initial temperature.
Q = mc∆T
Q = heat energy (Joules, J) m = mass of a substance (kg) c = specific heat (units J/g∙K)
∆ is a symbol meaning "the change in" ∆T = change in temperature (Kelvins, K)
From the data provided in the question, we can deduce that:
Q = 16.7KJ = 16,700J
m = 225g
c = 1.74J/g.k
For the temperature, let the final temperature be f. This means our ∆T = f - 20
16,700 = 225 * 1.74 * (f - 20)
16700 = 391.5 (f - 20)
f - 20 = 16700/391.5
f - 20 = 42.7
f = 20 + 42.7 = 62.7
According to the question, the determined melting point of the compound is 112.5-113.0oC. When the solidified compound was retried, the melting point was found to be 133.6-154.5oC. This greater range higher than 112°C is caused by reusing samples leads to errors.
A pure sample is known by its sharp melting point. A pure sample does not melt over a large range. We can see this in the predetermined melting points of the pure sample(112.5-113.0oC).
However, reusing a sample introduces errors because the pure sample may become contaminated leading to a larger and higher range of melting point (133.6-154.5oC) which is far above 112°C.
