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

A steel block has a volume of 0.08 m³ and a density of 7,840 kg/m³. What is the force of gravity acting on the block (the weight
melomori [17]

Given:

volume of 0.08 m³

density of 7,840 kg/m³

Required:

force of gravity

Solution:

Find the mass using density equation.

D = M/V

M = DV

M = (7,840 kg/m³)(0.08 m³)

M = 627.2kg

 

F = Mg

F = (627.2kg)(9.8m/s2)

F = 6147N
