Answer: The molecular formula will be Cs_2O_2

Explanation:-

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.

So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of Cs= 89 g

Mass of O = 11 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of Cs =\frac{\text{ given mass of Cs}}{\text{ molar mass of Cs}}= \frac{89g}{133g/mole}=0.67moles

Moles of O =\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{11g}{16g/mole}=0.69moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Cs = \frac{0.67}{0.67}=1

For O =\frac{0.69}{0.67}=1

The ratio of Cs : O= 1:1

Hence the empirical formula is CsO

The empirical weight of CsO = 1(133)+1(16)= 149g.

The molecular weight = 298 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight of metal}}{\text{Equivalent of metal}}=\frac{298}{149}=2

The molecular formula will be=2\times CsO=Cs_2O_2

M(Cs)=133 g/mol
M(O)=16 g/mol
M(CsxOy)=298 g/mol
w(Cs)=0.89
w(O)=0.11

CsxOy

x=M(CsxOy)w(Cs)/M(Cs)
x=298*0.89/133=2

y=M(CsxOy)w(O)/M(O)
y=298*0.11/16=2

How many grams are there in 7.5x10^23 molecules of H2SO4
horsena [70]
Moles of H2SO4= 7.5x10^23/ 6.02x10^23 = 1.25 (3sf) moles of H2SO4

Mass of 1 mole of H2SO4= 98.1g

Therefore mass of 7.5x10^23 molecules of H2SO4= 122.63g

A piston chamber filled with ideal gas is kept in a constant-temperature bath at 25.0°C. The piston expands from 25.0 mL to 75.0
larisa [96]

Answer : The work done by the system is, 2.2722 J

Explanation :

The expression used for work done in reversible isothermal expansion will be,

w=nRT\ln (\frac{V_2}{V_1})

where,

w = work done = ?

n = number of moles of gas  = 0.00100 mole

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole K

T = temperature of gas  = 25^oC=273+25=298K

V_1 = initial volume of gas  = 25 mL

V_2 = final volume of gas  = 75 mL

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

w=0.00100mole\times 8.314J/moleK\times 298K\times \ln (\frac{75}{25})

w=2.722J

Therefore, the work done by the system is, 2.2722 J

Can you guys give some science fair project ideas(8th grade)
Anton [14]
Answer
i’m in 7th grade but for this years science fair i did, “ how does temperature affect the elasticity of rubber bands”

Guide a growing plant through a maze.
8th Grade Science Plant Maze KiwiCo

Prove that plants really do seek out the light by setting up a simple or complex maze. This is a simple 8th grade science project with really cool results.

Blow out a candle with a balloon.


Blowing up a balloon with baking soda and vinegar is the classic acids and bases experiment. Take it a step further by experimenting with the carbon dioxide it produces. (Don’t be afraid of fire in the science

Stand on a pile of paper cups.


Combine physics and engineering and challenge 8th grade science students to create a paper cup structure that can support their weight. This is a cool project for aspiring architects.

hope this helps and have a wonderful day :)
