A sample of a compound made entirely from copper and oxygen was found to have a total mass of 0.143 g the mass of copper in the
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Mass of Oxygen: 0.0159 grams

Moles of Oxygen: 9.94x10^-4

To find the mass of oxygen, subtract the mass of copper from the total mass.

0.143-0.1271=0.0159

There are 0.0159 grams of Oxygen.

To find how many moles there are, divide the given amount of oxygen by the molar mass (atomic mass) of oxygen because that mass is the same as one mole of oxygen.

Molar mass of Oxygen: 16.00

0.0159/16.00=9.94*10^{-4}

There are 9.94*10^-4 moles of Oxygen.

Which sequence represents the relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas as explained by the kinetic-molecular the
Svetlanka [38]
<h2>Answer : Option C) Smaller volume - crowded particles - more collisions - high pressure</h2><h3>Explanation : </h3>

The kinetic molecular theory of gases explains that if there is small volume of gas there will be more crowding of the gas molecules inside the container. The crowded gas molecules will collide with each other and also with the walls of container as a result, exchange of energies will take place. Which will increase the pressure inside the container, and will raise the pressure than the initial pressure.
