How many oxygen atoms are there in one molecule of CH3FO?

Lynna [10]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf D. 0.440 \ mol \ NaOH}}$

Explanation:

To convert from moles to grams, the molar mass is used (mass of 1 mole). The values are the same as the atomic masses on the Periodic Table, but the units are grams per mole (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units.

<h3>1. Molar Mass</h3>

We are given the compound sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and we need to look up the molar masses of the individual elements.

Na: 22.9897693 g/mol
O: 15.999 g/mol
H: 1.008 g/mol

The formula for the compound has no subscripts, so there is 1 mole of each element in 1 mole of the substance. We can simply add the molar masses.

NaOH: 22.9897693 + 15.999 + 1.008 = 39.9967693 g/mol

This means there are 39.9967693 grams of sodium hydroxide in 1 mole.

<h3>2. Convert Grams to Moles </h3>

Use the molar mass we found as a ratio.

$\frac {39.9967693 \ g \ NaOH}{ 1 \ mol \ NaOH}$

Since we are converting 17.6 grams of NaOH to moles, we multiply by this value.

$17.6 \ g\ NaOH *\frac {39.9967693 \ g \ NaOH}{ 1 \ mol \ NaOH}$

Flip the ratio so the units of grams of NaOH cancel.

$17.6 \ g\ NaOH *\frac {1 \ mol \ NaOH}{ 39.9967693 \ g \ NaOH}$

$17.6 *\frac {1 \ mol \ NaOH}{ 39.9967693}$

$\frac{17.6 }{ 39.9967693} \ mol \ NaOH$

$0.4400355406 \ mol \ NaOH$

<h3>3. Round </h3>

The original measurement of grams has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the thousandth place.

0.4400355406

The 0 in the ten thousandths place (in bold above) tells us to leave the 0 in the thousandth place.

$0.440 \ mol \ NaOH$

17.6 grams of sodium hydroxide are equal to <u>0.440 moles of sodium hydroxide.</u>

9. A box is pushed 1.5 m to the right in 5 s. What is the box’s average speed to the nearest hundredth of a m/s? *

poizon [28]

Answer:

s = 0.30 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Distance travel = 1.5 m

Time taken = 5 s

Average speed of box = ?

Solution:

s = d/t

s = speed

d = distance

t = time

by putting values,

s = 1.5 m/ 5 s

s = 0.30 m/s

16.0 grams of molecular oxygen gas is equal to

IceJOKER [234]

One thing to notice in the question is, we are asked about molecular oxygen that has formula O2 not atomic oxygen O.

As we are asked about molecular oxygen, we will answer the question in terms of number of molecules that are present in 16 grams of molecular oxygen.

To get the number of molecules present in 16 grams of O2, we will use the formula:

No. of molecules = no. of moles x Avogadro's number (NA)----- eq 1)

As we know:

The number of moles = mass/ molar mass of molecule

Here we have been given mass already, 16 grams and the molar mass of O2 is 32 grams.

Putting the values in above formula:

= 16/32

= 0.5 moles

Putting the number of moles and Avogadro's number (6.02 * 10^23) in eq 1

No. of molecules = 0.5 x 6.02 * 10^23

=3.01 x 10^23 molecules

or 301,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules

This means that 16 grams of 3.01 x 10^23 molecules of oxygen.

Hope it helps!
