500 gram iron ore sample was determined to contain 242 grams of iron. What is the mass percent of iron in the ore

Chemistry

VashaNatasha [74]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

48.4%

Explanation:

Mass percent is calculated by the equation:

mass of element / total mass * 100%

Plugging in the figures of the problem: 242g / 500g * 100% = 48.4% (grams are in the numerator and denominator, so they cancel out)

Red light has a wavelength of about 6.5 x 10-7m. Find its frequency. Show all work.
ozzi
For this problem we use the wave equation. It is expressed as the speed (c) is equal to the product of frequency (f) and wavelength (v).

c = v x f

We know the wavelength of the an red light which is 6.5 x 10^-7 m. Now, we solve for the wavelength of the unknown wave to see the relation between the two waves.

2.998 X 10^8 = 5.3 X 10^15 X v
v = 2.998 X 10^8 / (5.3 X 10^15) = 5.657 X 10^-8 m

Therefore, the wavelength of the unknown wave is less than the wavelength of the red light.

A sample of H2 gas (2.0 L) at 3.5 atm was combined with 1.5 L of N2 gas at 2.6 atm pressure at a constant temperature of 25 °C i
Tamiku [17]
For this system, we use Dalton's law of partial pressures where the total pressure of a gas mixture is said to be equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the gases. The partial pressure of each gas would be calculated by the product of the mole fraction and the original pressure of the gas. We do as follows:

Total pressure = x1P1 + x2P2
Total pressure = (2.0 / 7.0 )(3.5) + (1.5/7.0)(2.6)
Total pressure = 1.56 atm

An ice cube tray full of water is put into a freezer. Which energy change occurs in the particles in the water as it undergoes a
o-na [289]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

increase in energy - hotter and/or more reactive

decrease in energy - colder and/or less reactive

Since it is going from a liquid to solid it will have a tighter arrangement of particles.

Which contains more carbon 4.71 g of C6H12O6 or 5.85 g C2H6O?
maksim [4K]

Answer:

5.85 g C2H6O has more carbon

Explanation:

Weight of carbon in  4.71 g of C6H12O6

4.71 * 12.01\\56.5671\\ grams

Weight of carbon in  5.85 g of C2H6O

5.85 * 12.01\\70.259\\ grams

Hence, 5.85 g C2H6O has more carbon
