Answer:

54.5%

Explanation:

The percentage composition of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of C₆H₈O₆ = (12×6) + (8×1) + (16×6)

= 72 + 8 + 96

= 176 g/mol

Next, there are 6 oxygen atoms in C₆H₈O₆. Therefore the mass of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ is:

Mass of Oxygen = 16 × 6 = 96 g

Finally, we shall determine the percentage composition of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ as follow:

Percentage of oxygen =

Mass of Oxygen/mass of C₆H₈O₆ × 100

Percentage of oxygen = 96 / 176 × 100

Percentage of oxygen = 54.5%

Thus, the percentage composition of oxygen in C₆H₈O₆ is 54.5%.

What is the pH of a solution after the addition of 30.0 mL of 0.100 M NaOH to 50.0 mL of 0.10 M HBr?

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

pH = 1.6

Explanation:

HBr + NaOH ⇒ NaBr + H2O

0 mL NaOH:

HBr ↔ H3O+ + Br-

⇒ [ H3O+] = M HBr = 0.1 M

⇒pH = -log [H3O+] = 1

30 mL NaOH:

⇒ mol NaOH = 0.1 mol / L * 0.03 L = 3 E-3 mol

⇒ mol HBr = 0.05 L * 0.1 mol/L = 5 E-3 mol

⇒ M HBr = ( 5 E-3 mol - 3 E-3 mol) / 0.08 L = 0.025 M

⇒ pH = - log (0.025) = 1.6

Problem PageQuestion The airbags that protect people in car crashes are inflated by the extremely rapid decomposition of sodium

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

1. 2NaN₃(s) → 2Na(s) + 3N₂(g)

2. 14.5 g NaN₃

Explanation:

The answer is incomplete, as it is missing the required values to solve the problem. An internet search shows me these values for this question. Keep in mind that if your values are different your result will be different as well, but the solving methodology won't change.

" The airbags that protect people in car crashes are inflated by the extremely rapid decomposition of sodium azide, which produces large volumes of nitrogen gas. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid sodium azide (NaN₃) into solid sodium and gaseous dinitrogen. 2. Suppose 71.0 L of dinitrogen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 16.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of sodium azide that must have reacted. Round your answer to 3 significant digits. "

1. The reaction that takes place is:

2NaN₃(s) → 2Na(s) + 3N₂(g)

2. We use PV=nRT to calculate the moles of N₂ that were produced.

P = 1 atm

V = 71.0 L

n = ?

T = 16.0 °C ⇒ 16.0 + 273.16 = 289.16 K

1 atm * 71.0 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 289.16 K

n = 0.334 mol

Now we convert N₂ moles to NaN₃ moles:

0.334 mol N₂ * $\frac{2molNaN_{3}}{3molN_2}$ = 0.223 mol NaN₃

Finally we convert NaN₃ moles to grams, using its molar mass:

0.223 mol NaN₃ * 65 g/mol = 14.5 g NaN₃

If an atom has 13 electrons how many electron shells does it have

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

If an atom has 13 electrons then it belongs to p-block of periodic table.

s level can accommodate 2 electrons.

p level can accommodate 6 electrons.

13 means 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1.

As you can see there totally 5 sub-shells.

Total number of shells are 3(1,2,3).

Balance the following skeleton reactions and identify the oxidizing and reducing agents:(b) P₄(s) → HPO₃²⁻(aq) + PH₃(g) [acidic]

m_a_m_a [10]

The balanced chemical equation is :

5P₄ + 36OH → 12HPO₃⁻² (aq) + 8PH₃ (acidic)

Here the oxidation number of P changed from 0 to -3 in PH₃ and increases from 0 to +3 in HPO₃⁻². When P₄ changes to PH₃ reduction reaction is taking place as there is addition of hydrogen and when P₄ changes to HPO₃⁻² oxidation takes place as there is addition of oxygen.

Thus clearly both reduction and oxidation are taking place.

Thus, we can infer that here P₄ is both oxidizing as well as reducing agent.
