Answer:

Mn= +3 charge

Explanation:

if you take what we know, and that would be the charge of oxygen, we know that oxygen has a 2- charge and there are 3 sets of O^2- so multiply the number of oxygen times the charge and you get 6-.

Next set up an equation as listed in the picture which will be 2(x)=6

and that is the charge of the Mn ion.

Answer:

(a) ΔU = 7.2x10²

(b) W = -5.1x10²

(c) q = 5.2x10²

Explanation:

From the definition of power (p), we have:

$p = \frac {\Delta W}{\Delta t} = \frac {\Delta U}{\Delta t}$ (1)

<em>where, p: is power (J/s = W (watt)) W: is work = ΔU (J) and t: is time (s) </em>

(a) We can calculate the energy (ΔU) using equation (1):

$\Delta U = p \cdot \Delta t = 100 \frac{J}{s} \cdot 2.0\cdot 10^{-2} h \cdot \frac{3600s}{1h} = 7.2 \cdot 10^{2} J$

(b) The work is related to pressure and volume by:

$\Delta W = -p \Delta V$

<em>where p: pressure and ΔV: change in volume = V final - V initial </em>

$\Delta W = - p \cdot (V_{fin} - V_{ini}) = - 1.0 atm (5.88L - 0.85L) = - 5.03 L \cdot atm \cdot \frac{101.33J}{1 L\cdot atm} = -5.1 \cdot 10^{2} J$

(c) By the definition of Energy, we can calculate q:

$\Delta U = \Delta W + \Delta q$

<em>where Δq: is the heat transfer </em>

$\Delta q = \Delta U - \Delta W = 7.2 J - (-5.1 \cdot 10^{2} J) = 5.2 \cdot 10^{2} J$

I hope it helps you!

You have 16.0 g of some compound and you perform an experiment to remove all of the oxygen, 11.2 g of iron is left. What is the

Makovka662 [10]

The empirical formula of this compound is $Fe_2O_3$

<h3>Empirical formula </h3>

To calculate the empirical formula of a compound, the value of moles of each element is needed.

As we have the information of the mass value, we will use the molar mass expression, which corresponds to:

$MM_O = 16g/mol\\MM_Fe = 55.8g/mol$

$MM = \frac{m}{mol}$

$16 = \frac{4.8}{x}$

$x = 0.3mol$

$55.8=\frac{11.2}{x}\\x = 0.2$

As the value of the empirical formula must be an integer, simply multiply the two values by a common factor:

$O = 0.3 \times 10 = 3\\Fe = 0.2 \times 10 = 2$

$Fe_2O_3$

So, the empirical formula of this compound is $Fe_2O_3$ .
