The answer is 57.14%.
First we need to calculate molar mass of <span>NaHCO3. Molar mass is mass of 1 mole of a substance. It is the sum of relative atomic masses, which are masses of atoms of the elements.
Relative atomic mass of Na is 22.99 g
</span><span>Relative atomic mass of H is 1 g
</span><span>Relative atomic mass of C is 12.01 g
</span><span>Relative atomic mass of O is 16 g.
</span>
Molar mass of <span>NaHCO3 is:
22.99 g + 1 g + 12.01 g + 3 </span>· <span>16 g = 84 g
Now, mass of oxygen in </span><span>NaHCO3 is:
3 </span>· 16 g = 48 g
mass percent of oxygen in <span>NaHCO3:
48 g </span>÷ 84 g · 100% = 57.14%
Therefore, <span>the mass percent of oxygen in sodium bicarbonate is 57.14%.</span>
Sulfur dioxide is an example of air pollution.
It is the main component of acid rain. It is released into the air as a result of the burning of fossil fuels.
Answer:
The type of liquid in the tub (salt water or vinegar)
Explanation:
<em>The manipulated independent variable in Anita's experiment is </em><em>the type of liquid in the tub. </em>
The independent variable is the controlled or manipulated variable in the course of an experiment. It can also be referred to as the 'cause' variable which has the capacity to produce 'effects' on another variable - the dependent variable.
In this case, the type of liquid the tub is filled (salt water or vinegar) will hypothetically affect the rusting period of the steel. Hence, the dependent variable is the type of liquid the tub is filled while the dependent variable would be the time it takes for the steel to get rusted.
