What percentage of the mass of hydrofluoric acid (HF) is contributed by hydrogen?

1 answer:

5 0

This problem is asking for the percent by mass of hydrogen in hydrofluoric acid. At the end, the answer turns out to be D. 5% as shown below:

<h3>Percent compositions:</h3>

In chemistry, percent compositions are used for us to know the relative amount of a specific element in a compound. In order to do so for hydrogen, we use the following formula, which can also be applied to any other element in a given compound:

$\% H=\frac{m_H*1}{M_{HF}}*100\%$

Where $m_H$ stands for the atomic mass of hydrogen and $M_{HF}$ for the molar mass of hydrofluoric acid. In such a way, we plug in the atomic masses of hydrogen (1.01 g/mol) and fluorine (19.0 g/mol) to obtain:

$\% H=\frac{1.01g/mol*1}{1.01g/mol+19.0g/mol}*100\%\\\\\% H=5\%$

How many grams of KCI can be dissolved in 63.5. g of water at 80

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

35.8 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of water: 63.5 g

Step 2: Calculate how many grams of KCl can be dissolved in 63.5. g of water at 80 °C

Solubility is the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in 100 g of solute at a specified temperature. The solubility of KCl at 80 °C is 56.3 g%g, that is, we can dissolve up to 56.3 g of KCl in 100 g of water.

63.5 g Water × 56.3 g KCl/100 g Water = 35.8 g KCl

According to the image, identify the number of neutrons in the most common isotope of aluminum.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

The number of neutron in the Aluminium Isotope is :

B. 14

Explanation:

Isotopes : These are the atoms which have same atomic number but have different mass number.

This image shows the average atomic mass of Al element because it is in decimals.

Atomic mass = 26.98154

(Note : mass number of single isotope can never be in decimals)

It is the average of mass of different isotopes of Al

Major Isotopes of $_{13}^{26.98154}\textrm{Al}$ are :

$_{13}^{26}\textrm{Al}$ ......atomic mass = 26
$_{13}^{27}\textrm{Al}$ .......atomic mass = 27

mass of Al given in image(26.98) is nearly equal to mass of 2nd isotope(27)

mass of $_{13}^{26.98154}\textrm{Al}\ \approx 27$

Now calculate the neutron in $_{13}^{27}\textrm{Al}$

Number of neutron = mass number - atomic number

= 27 - 13

Number of neutron = 14

(Atomic mass is same as mass number)

If the temperature on 244 mL of a gas is changed to 488 mL and 6 atm, at constant

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the initial pressure we use the formula for Boyle's law which is

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

Since we are finding the initial pressure

$P_1 = \frac{P_2V_2}{V_1} \\$

From the question we have

$P_1 = \frac{488 \times 6}{244} = \frac{2928}{244} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

What does it mean to optimize a solution ? How are solutions optimize

Romashka [77]

Question

What does it mean to optimize a solution?

To find out best possible solution for a given problem within the given constraint is generally termed as optimization

How are solution optimize ?

To solve an optimization problem, begin by drawing a picture and introducing variables. Find an equation relating the variables. Find a function of one variable to describe the quantity that is to be minimized or maximized. Look for critical points to locate local extrema.
