Calcium has a high melting point which is about 842°C.

This is coz Calcium atoms have smaller radii since they have also a greater nuclear charge.

What is the molar mass of citric acid (C6H8O7) and baking soda (NaHCO3)?
Mama L [17]

Answer:

1. 192.0 g/mol.

2. 84.0 g/mol.

Explanation:

  • <em>The molar mass is the mass of all the atoms in a molecule in grams per mole.</em>
  • <em>To calculate the molar mass of a molecule, we first obtain the atomic weights from the individual elements in a periodic table. We then count the number of atoms and multiply it by the individual atomic masses.</em>

<em></em>

<em>1. Molar mass of citric acid (C₆H₈O₇):</em>

<em>Molar mass of C₆H₈O₇ = 6(atomic mass of C) + 8(atomic mass of H) + 7(atomic mass of O)</em> = 6(12.0 g/mol) + 8(1.0 g/mol) + 7(16.0 g/mol) = <em>192.0 g/mol.</em>

<em>2. Molar mass of baking soda (NaHCO₃):</em>

<em>Molar mass of NaHCO₃ = (atomic mass of Na) + (atomic mass of H) + (atomic mass of C) + 3(atomic mass of O) </em>= (23.0 g/mol) + (1.0 g/mol) + (12.0 g/mol) + 3(16.0 g/mol) = <em>84.0 g/mol.</em>

In the Haber Process, hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2) react to produce
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Mass stays the same because no matter is created or destroyed.

Explanation:

Regardless of what chemical reaction we have, in each case the law of mass conservation applies. The law of mass conservation states that the total mass of a reaction mixture is kept constant, as mass cannot be created or destroyed.

In this specific reaction, the total mass of the reactants should be equal to the total mass of the products when the reaction is complete.

In other words, if we add the mass of hydrogen to the mass of nitrogen, when the reaction is compete, assuming no reagent in excess, this should be equal to the mass of ammonia formed.

⦁answer Calculate the density in g/L of 478 mL of krypton at 47° C and 671 mm Hg. ⦁ Determine the molar mass of a gas that has a
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

The correct answers are:

- Krypton: density= 2.8 g/L

- Molar Mass= 63.99 g/mol

- Mass of O₂= 15.29 g

Explanation:

The general equation of an ideal gas is the folllowing:

P x V = n x R x T

Where: P= pressure (in atm), V= volume; n= number of moles, R= gas constant (0,082 L.atm/K.mol) and T= temperature (in K).

<u>For krypton</u>:

P= 671 mmHg = 0,882 atm

V= 478 ml x 1000 ml/1 L= 0,478 L

T= 47ºC= 320 K

MM= 83.8 g/mol (from Periodic Table, Kr is an inert gas so it is a monoatomic gas)

P x V = n x R x T

Since the number of moles of a compound can be calculated by dividing the mass of compound (m) into its molar mass (MM):

n= m/MM

We can replace the expression in the first equation to obtain:

P x V= \frac{m}{MM} x R x T

m/V= \frac{P x MM}{R x T}

Density (d) is equal to the mass per volume (m/V), so we can directly calculate the density:

d= m/V= \frac{P x MM}{R x T}=

           = (0.882 atm x 83.8 g/mol)/(0.082 L.atm/K.mol x 320 K)

           = 2.81 g/L

<u>For the gas:</u>

d= 2.18 g/L

T= 66ºC= 339 K

P= 720 mmHg= 0.947 atm

d= \frac{P x MM}{R x T}

⇒MM = \frac{dx R x T}{P}

         = (2.18 g/L x 0.082 L.atm/K.mol x 339 K)/(0.947 atm)

         = 63.99 g/mol ≅ 64 g/mol

<u>For the O₂</u>:

V= 5.60 L

P= 1.75 atm

T= 250 K

MM(O₂) = 2 x Atomic Mass O= 2 x 16 g/mol= 32 g/mol

We can use the second equation:

P x V= \frac{m}{MM} x R x T

⇒  m = \frac{P x V x MM}{R x T}= (1.75 atm x 5.6 L x 32 g/mol)/(0.082 L.atm/K.mol x 250 K)

                         = 15.29 g≅ 16 g
