Molybdenum can form a wide series of halide compounds, including four different fluoride compounds. The percent by mass of molyb

denum in the four compounds is 63.0%,
56.0%,
50.0%,
and 46.0%.
Determine the formula and name for each of the four different molybdenum fluorides.

The formula and names of the compounds are:

1. Formula of compound => MoF₃

Name of compound => Molybdenum trifluoride

2. Formula of compound => MoF₄

Name of compound => Molybdenum tetrafluoride

3. Formula of compound => MoF₅

Name of compound => Molybdenum pentafluoride  

4. Formula of compound => MoF₆

Name of compound => Molybdenum hexafluoride  

1. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 63.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 63.0%

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 63 = 37%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 63.0%

F = 37%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 63.0 / 96 = 0.656

F = 37 / 19 = 1.947

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.656 / 0.656 = 1

F = 1.947 / 0.656 = 3

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₃

Name of compound => Molybdenum trifluoride

2. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 56.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 56.0%,

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 56 = 44%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 56%

F = 44%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 56 / 96 = 0.583

F = 44 / 19 = 2.316

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.583 / 0.583 = 1

F = 2.316 / 0.583 = 4

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₄

Name of compound => Molybdenum tetrafluoride

3. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 50.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 50.0%,

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 50 = 50%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 50%

F = 50%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 50 / 96 = 0.520

F = 50 / 19 = 2.632

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.520 / 0.520 = 1

F = 2.632 / 0.520 = 5

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₅

Name of compound => Molybdenum pentafluoride  

4. Determination of the name and formula of the molybdenum fluoride having 46.0% of molybdenum.

Molybdenum (Mo) = 46.0%,

Fluorine (F) = 100 – 46 = 54%

<h3>Formula =? </h3>

Mo = 46%

F = 54%

Divide by their molar mass

Mo = 46 / 96 = 0.479

F = 54 / 19 = 2.842

Divide by the smallest

Mo = 0.479 / 0.479 = 1

F = 2.842 / 0.479 = 6

Therefore,

Formula of compound => MoF₆

Name of compound => Molybdenum hexafluoride

Octane has a density of 0.692 g/ml at 20∘c. how many grams of o2 are required to burn 17.0 gal of c8h18
german

156251.099 grams of O₂ are required to burn 17.0 gal of C₈H₁₈

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume

With the same mass, the volume of objects that have a high density will be smaller than objects with a smaller type of mass

The unit of density can be expressed in g / cm³ or kg / m³

Density formula:

\large{\boxed{\bold{\rho~=~\frac{m}{V} }}}

ρ = density

m = mass

v = volume

1 gal equal to = 3785.41 ml

then 17.0 gal = 17 x 3785.41 = 64351.97 ml Octane

grams Octane = ρ x ml

grams Octane = 0.692 g.ml x 64351.97

grams Octane = 44531.563

molar mass Octane (C₈H₁₈) = 114

mole Octane = grams : molar mass

mole Octane = 44531.563  : 114

mole Octane = 390.627

From the reaction

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2 O₂ ⇒ 8 CO₂ + 9H₂O

mole C₈H₁₈ : mole O₂ = 1 : 25/2

mole\:O_2\:=\:\frac{25}{2} \times\:390.627

mole O₂ = 4882.846

grams O₂ = mole x molar mass

grams O₂ = 4882.846 x 32

grams O₂ = 156251.099

How many representative particles are in one mole of CO2? PLEASE ANSWER ALMOST DUE
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

I hope this helps, sorry if it doesnt. Not really good with chemistry, hope you have a great day/night :}

Explanation:

A mole (mol) is the amount of a substance that contains 6.02 × 10 23 representative particles of that substance.

12.00 g C-12 = 1 mol C-12 atoms = 6.022 × 1023 atoms • The number of particles in 1 mole is called Avogadro's Number (6.0221421 x 1023).
