To determine the amount of a certain element in a compound, we use the ratio of the elements from the compound. We calculate is follows:
45.0 g CCl4 ( 1 mol CCl4 / 153.82 g CCl4 ) ( 1 mol C / 1 mol CCl4 ) ( 12.01 g C / 1 mol C ) = 3.5135 g carbon present
Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
There are 18 protons and electrons and 22 neutrons in the atom
Answer:
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Sulfur.
(Those are all the ones I know)
Answer:
5. Atoms with high ionization energies and high electron affinities have low electronegativities.
Explanation:
Ionization energy is the minimum amount of energy which is required to knock out the loosely bound valence electron from the isolated gaseous atom.
Electron affinity is the amount of energy released when an isolated gaseous atom accepts electron to form the corresponding anion.
Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom in a bond pair to attract the shared pair of electron towards itself.
Low ionization energies as well as low electron affinities mean the atom has low effective nuclear charge, which results in the less attraction of the valence electrons by the atom and thus, low electronegativity.
Answer:
B There are two grams of hydrogen for each gram of carbon in this compound.
Explanation:
The second option is a wrong interpretation of this chemical representation of formaldehyde.
Formaldehyde is an organic compound with the formula CH₂O.
As this is the simplest formula of the compound, it is the empirical formula. Also, the formula is the actual one for the compound and it is the molecular formula.
Chemically, the formula shows 1 mole of carbon, 2 moles of H and 1 mole of oxygen in the compound.
- A mole of a substance is more a less a unit of measurement in chemistry and it is the amount of substance that contains the avogadro's number of particles.
This ratio is not the mass of chemical species in the compound. You cannot tell the mass of elements in a compound by merely looking at the formula.
