Large amounts of an unknown compound were isolated from seawater. The compound contained 32.0 grams ofbromine and 4.9 grams of magnesium. What is its percent composition?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

87% bromine and 13% magnesium

Explanation:

The compound contained 32.0 grams of bromine and 4.9 grams of magnesium.

We need to find its percent composition.

Mass of the sample = mass of bromine + mass of magnesium

= 32 g + 4.9 g

= 36.9  g

Percentage composition of bromine,

[tex]\%=\dfrac{32}{36.9}\times 100\\\\=86.7\\\\=87\%[/tex]

The percentage composition of magnesium,

[tex]\%=\dfrac{4.9}{36.9}\times 100\\\\=13.27\\\\=13\%[/tex]

So, its percent composition is 87% bromine and 13% magnesium.

A gas is at 275 K, and its temperature is raised to 400 K. The volume is measured at 5.82 L after the gas is heated. What is
the volume of the gas before it is heated?
8.25 L
12.0L
2.00 L
4.00 L

Answers

Answer:

4.00L

Explanation:

Using Charle's law, which have the following equation:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

V1 = initial volume (litres)

T1 = initial temperature (Kelvin)

V2 = final volume (litres)

T2 = final temperature (Kelvin)

According to the information provided, T1 = 275K, T2 = 400K, V1 = ?, V2 = 5.82L

Hence, using the formula;

V1/275 = 5.82/400

400 × V1 = 275 × 5.82

400V1 = 1600.5

V1 = 1600.5 ÷ 400

V1 = 4.001

Therefore, volume of the gas before it is heated is 4.00L

D. atomic number and atomia mess. 5​

Answers

Answer:

B. electrons and protons.

Explanation:

In an electrically neutral atom of any element, there are equal number of protons and electrons in the atom.

Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom.

Electrons are the negatively charged particles within the atom.

  When the number of protons and electrons are the same or equal, the atom is neutral.

But when there is an imbalance, an ion results.

Answers

Answer:

c. protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus

d. protons and neutrons have approximately the same mass

Explanation:

There are three fundamental particles within an atom which are the protons, neutrons and electrons.

The protons are the positively charged particles within an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges

Electrons are the negatively charged particles.

Both the protons and neutrons occupy the tiny nucleus at the center of the atom. The electrons moves round the nucleus through the orbital space. The mass of the protons and neutrons are similar and are assumed to be approximately the same.

1) How much heat does 23.0 g of water absorb as its temperature increases from 25.4 °C to 42.8 °C?

2) A sample of unknown metal has a mass of 120.7 g. As the sample cools from 90.5 °C to 25.7 °C, it releases 7020 J of energy. What is the specific heat of the sample?

Answers

Answer:

c = 0.898 J/g.°C

Explanation:

1) Given data:

Mass of water = 23.0 g

Initial temperature = 25.4°C

Final temperature = 42.8° C

Heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g°C

ΔT = 42.8°C - 25.4°C

ΔT = 17.4°C

Q = 23.0 g ×  × 4.18 J/g°C × 17.4°C

Q = 1672.84 j

2) Given data:

Mass of metal = 120.7 g

Initial temperature = 90.5°C

Final temperature = 25.7 ° C

Heat released = 7020 J

Specific heat capacity of metal = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 25.7°C - 90.5°C

ΔT = -64.8°C

7020 J = 120.7 g ×  c ×  -64.8°C

7020 J = -7821.36 g.°C ×  c

c = 7020 J / -7821.36 g.°C

c = 0.898 J/g.°C

Negative sign shows heat is released.

B. Add more water to decrease the concentration.
C. Add more water to increase the concentration.
D. Add more salt to decrease the concentration.

Answers

Answer:

B. Add more water to decrease the concentration.

Explanation:

If we add more water to the solution, the concentration is decreased and like wise the conductivity of the solution.

Concentration is the amount of solute in a solution. Conductivity deals with the ability of a solution to allow the passage of current.

Concentration and conductivity are directly proportional to one another. The higher the concentration, the higher the conductivity and vice versa.

Adding more water increases the amount of solvent and the concentration reduces.

What is the frequency of light with a wavelength of 3.2 x 10^-16 m?

Answers

Answer:

f = 0.94 ×10²⁴  Hz

Explanation:

Given data:

Frequency of light = ?

Wavelength of light = 3.2 ×10⁻¹⁶ m

Solution:

Formula:

Speed of light = wavelength × frequency

c = λ × f

c = speed of wave = 3×10⁸ m/s

by putting values,

3×10⁸ m/s  = f × 3.2 ×10⁻¹⁶ m

f  =  3×10⁸ m/s   / 3.2 ×10⁻¹⁶ m

f  = 0.94 ×10²⁴ s⁻¹

f = 0.94 ×10²⁴  Hz (Hz = s⁻¹)

The compound F2O has two lone pairs on the central oxygen atom. What's the structure of an F2O molecule? Is this compound polar or non-polar? Question 1 options: A) Bent or angular, polar B) Trigonal planar, polar C) Bent or angular, non-polar D) Trigonal planar, non-polar

Answers

Answer:  A) Bent or angular, polar

Explanation:

The central atom oxygen has two lone pairs and two bond pairs in [tex]OF_2[/tex]. The number of electron pairs are 4,  that means the hybridization will be [tex]sp^3[/tex] and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral. But as there are two lone pair of atoms around the central oxygen atom, repulsion between lone and bond pair of electrons is more and hence the molecular geometry will be bent shape.

The compound [tex]OF_2[/tex] is polar as the net dipole moment of oxygen - fluoride bonds do not cancel each other out.

Solution:

The formula of the compound is:

            CaCO₃

      6.02 x 10²³ atoms are contained in 1 mole of a compound

       2 x 10²⁴ atoms will be made up of [tex]\frac{2 x 10^{24} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }[/tex]   = 3.32mole of CaCO₃

 Mass of CaCO₃  = number of moles x molar mass

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Al₂CO₃ = 10.0 g

Number of atoms of oxygen = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of Al₂CO₃:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 10.0 g/233.99 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.043 mol

1 mole of Al₂CO₃ contain 3 mole of oxygen.

0.043 ×3 mol = 0.129 mol

Number of atoms of oxygen:

why can mosquitos stand on water?
A-The mosquito is able to walk on the water due to the attraction between multiple water molecules, creating surface tension.
B-The mosquito is able to walk on the water due to the attraction between water molecules and other non-water molecules, creating surface tension.

Answers

Answer:

Mosquitos can stand on water because;

A. The mosquito is able to walk on the water due to the attraction between multiple water molecules, creating surface tension

Explanation:

Surface Tension is the surface property of a liquid which is due to the cohesive forces of attraction between its molecules, that enables it to withstand an external shearing force

The molecules in a liquid maintain a cohesive force between adjacent molecules that keeps all the molecules together such that the liquid has a defined volume

On the surface of the liquid, the cohesive forces between the molecules are shared by only between the adjacent molecules and molecules which are under the surface, and therefore, the attraction is much stronger such that the surface of the liquid is in tension, which is called the surface tension of the liquid

Therefore, the mosquito is able to walk on the water due to the attraction between multiple water molecules, creating surface tension.
