A sample of a compound that contains only the elements C, H, and N is completely burned in O2 to produce 44.0 g of CO2, 45.0 g o
1 answer:
Explanation:
what you have to do is to multiply the given grams with the ratio of grams of that certain element in it's full compound in order to isolate the compound and get the element.
because the question did not specify how many grams of NO2 is formed, we can assume that the mass is neglegible, thus 1 mole was assigned to Nitrogen.

Explanation:
Answer: The correct answer is: " 0.54 g " .
__________________________________________
Explanation:
Note that "hydrogen gas" is:
H₂ (g) ; that is: a "diatomic element" (diatomic gas) ;
_________________________________________
The molecular weight of "H" is: 1.00794 g ;
(From the Periodic Table of Elements).
So, the molecular weight of: H₂ (g) is:
" 1.00794 g * 2 = 2.01588 g ; {use calculator) ;
_________________________________________
Note the conversion for a gas at STP:
______
1 mol of a gas = 22.4 L gas;
___
i.e. " 1 mol / 22.4 L " ;
____
So: " 5.7 L H₂ (g)
The "L" ("literes" cancel out to "1" ; since "L/L = 1 ;
The "mol" (moles) cancel out to "1" ; since "mol/mol = 1 ;
____
and we are left with:
____
[5.7 * 2.104588 g ] / 22.4 = ? g ;
______________________
→ [ 11.9961516 g ] / 22.4 =
0.53554248214 g ;l
_____________________________
We round this value to: " 0.54 g " ;
→ since "5.7 L " has 2 (two) significant figures;
22.4 is an exact number conversion;
and "5.7 L" has fewer significant figures than:
" 2.104588 " ; or: " 1.00794 " .
→ as such: We round to "2 (two) significant figures."
