The compound is made of 2 oxygen molecules and the oxygen made of 20.61% its mass. If the molar mass of oxygen is 16, the molar mass of the compound will be:
2* oxygen* (16g/mol / oxygen) = 20.61% compound mass
compound mass= 32g/mol / 20.61%
compound mass= 155.26 g/mol
Gases have three characteristic properties: (1) they are easy to compress, (2) they expand to fill their containers, and (3) they occupy far more space than the liquids or solids from which they form. An internal combustion engine provides a good example of the ease with which gases can be compressed.
<u>Ans: 650 J = 155 calories</u>
<u>Given:</u>
Energy in joules = 650 J
<u>To determine:</u>
The energy in calories
<u>Explanation:</u>
1 joule = 0.2388 calories
Therefore, 650 joules = 0.2388 calories * 650 J/1 J = 155 calories
