It would be carbon because its relative atomic mass is 12
Answer:
Explanation:
Your goal here is to figure out the mass of iron and the mass of sulfur present in exactly
100 g
of this compound, which is what you need in order to know the compound's percent composition.
The problem provides you with the mass of iron and with the mass of sulfur present in
27.9 g
of this compound, so you must use this information to scale up your sample from
27.9 g
to
100 g
.
To do that, set up the known composition of the compound as a conversion factor.
To find the number of grams of iron present in
100 g
of compound, set up the conversion factor like this
17.6 g iron
27.9 g compound
You will end up with
100
g compound
⋅
17.6 giron
27.9
g compound
=
63.1 g iron
To find the mass of sulfur present in
100 g
of compound, you can either use a conversion factor set up in a similar manner
100
g compound
⋅
10.3 g sulfur
27.9
g compound
=
36.9 g sulfur
or use the fact that the compound contains only iron and sulfur to say that the mass of sulfur will be equal to
100 g compound
−
63.1 g iron = 36.9 g sulfur
You now know the mass of iron and the mass of sulfur present for every
100 g
of compound, so you can say that the compound has the following percent composition
63.1% iron
36.9% sulfur
Here
%
means per
100 g
of compound.
<span>A bond between two atoms in which the shared electron or electrons are equally likely to be found near each atom is called a non Polar Covalent Bond.
Explanation:
As we know atoms react in order to gain stability. Now, the bonding is done by several ways. Among these ways one is the mutual sharing of electrons between two atoms. Neither one completely accepts nor donate the electron instead they share it equally. If this sharing is purely equal then the bond formed is non polar in nature (like bonds between similar atoms), on the other hand if this sharing is not equal then one atom will get partial positive (less electron density) and other will get partial negative (more electron density) charge like in HCl.</span>
It is in the noble gas group which has a full valence electron shell found in group 18 or 8A depending on your periodic table
5.2/ 24.3 = 0.214
0.214 x 2 = 0.428
0.428 x 36.5= 15.6g
