Answer:

92.01 g/mol

Explanation:

So first you need to find the empirical formula by the percents. That would be, assuming that you have 100 grams of the the sample, divide each quantity of each element found by its respective molar mass.

30.4 g of N ÷ 14 g/mol N= 2.17 mol of N

69.6 g of O ÷ 16g/mol= 4.35 mol of O

You can establish now the empirical formula.

N2.17O4.35,

but since you can't have a decimal subscript, you divide each subscript by the minimum subscript

NO2

So then you're said that the molecular formula derived from that empirical formula has 2 nitrogen, so you multiply all the subscripts, by 2:

N2O4

-Dinitrogen Tetraoxide

-Nitrogen oxide (IV)

Then all you have to do is find the molecular mass of the compound using the periodic table and what you obtain is the molar mass.

remember: molecular mass is correspondent to molar mass.

Calculate the energy required to melt 21 g of ice at 0 oC.
vladimir1956 [14]

<u>We are given:</u>

Mass of ice = 21 grams

The ice is already at 0°c, the temperature at which it melts to form water

Molar heat of fusion of Ice = 6.02 kJ/mol

<u>Finding the energy required:</u>

<u>Number of moles of Ice: </u>

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Number of moles = given mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 21 / 18 = 7/6 moles

<u>Energy required to melt the given amount of ice:</u>

Energy = number of moles * molar heat of fusion

Energy = (7/6) * (6.02)

Energy = 7.02 kJ OR 7020 joules

A compound of a transition metal and iodine is 56.7% metal by mass.How many grams of the metal can be obtained from 630 g of thi
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

357 g of the transition metal are present in 630 grams of the compound of the transition metal and iodine

Explanation:

In any sample of the compound, the percentage by mass of the transition metal is 56.7%. This means that for a 100 g sample of the compound, 56.7 g is the metal while the remaining mass, 43.3 g is iodine.

Given mass of sample compound = 630 g

Calculating the mass of iodine present involves multiplying the percentage by mass composition of the metal by the mass of the given sample;

56.7 % = 56.7/100 = 0.567

Mass of transition metal = 0.567 * 630 = 357.21 g

Therefore, the mass of the transition metal  present in 630 g of the compound is approximately 357 g

If the density of water is 1g/ml, what is the mass of 254ml of water?
Mariulka [41]
The mass of 254 mL of water is 254 g. Since the density of water is 1g/mL, we can simply multiply the density 1g/mL by 254 mL of water and get 254 g as our answer.  Since mL is in the numerator and denominator, mL cancels out and we are left with g only.

Consider a 0.10 M aqueous benzoic acid, CeHeCOOH. The K benzoic acid. 6.5 x 10 for A) Write a balanced equation that shows the r
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

a) C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

b) [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = 2.599

Explanation:

a) balanced equation:

C6H5COOH + H2O ↔ H3O+  +  C6H5COO-

⇒ Ka = ( [ H3O+ ] * [ C6H5COO- ] ) / [ C6H5COOH ] = 6.5 E-5

mass balance:

0.10 m = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ C6H5COOH ].....(1)

charge balance:

[ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] + [ OH- ] .......[ OH- ] : comes from water, it's not significant

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = [ C6H5COO- ] .........(2)

b) (2) in (1):

⇒ 0.10 M = [ H3O+ ] + [ C6H5COOH ]

⇒ [ C6H5COOH ] = 0.10 - [ H3O+ ]

⇒ Ka = [ H3O+ ]² / ( 0.1 - [ H3O+ ] ) = 6.5 E-5

⇒ [ H3O+ ]² + 6.5 E-5 [ H3O+ ] - 6.5 E-6 = 0

⇒ [ H3O+ ] = 2.517 E-3 M

c) pH = - log [ H3O+ ]

⇒ pH = - Log ( 2.517 E-3 )

⇒ pH = 2.599
