A 12.17 g sample of a compound contains 7.77 g of iron, Fe, 1.44 g of phosphorus, P, and oxygen, O. Calculate the empirical formula for the compound.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Fe₃PO₄

Explanation:

They have given the total mass of the compound, the mass of iron and the mass of phosphorus. So we can find the mass of oxygen.

Mass of oxygen = 12.17 - (7.77 + 1.44) = 2.96g

So we can now find the empirical formula.

Element - mass - Mr - Mass÷Mr - Ratio - Simplest Ratio

Fe - 7.77g - 55.8 - [7.77÷55.8] - [0.14÷0.05]  - 2.8 = 3

P   - 1.44g -   31   -   [1.44÷31]    - [0.05÷0.05] - 1

O  - 2.96g -   16  -   [2.96÷16]   - [0.19÷0.05]  - 3.8 = 4

[The simplest ratio was obtained by dividing the answer of mass÷mr with the smallest value. Phosphorus had the smallest value of mass÷mr=0.05, so all other answer were divided by 0.05]

Emperical formula = Fe₃PO₄

A sample of Ammonia gas at 650mmHg and 15 degree has a mass of 56.8g.calculate the volume occupied by the gas. Take N=14, H=1,R=8.3145jk.

Answers

Answer:

The first thing we have to do is change and state all the units so that we can use our ideal gas law equation ([tex]PV = nRT[/tex]).

650 mmHg is a pressure unit, we have to convert this to kiloPascals. We know that 760 mmHg gives us 101 kPa.

[tex]650 \ mmHg \ * \ \frac{101kPa}{760 mmHg} = 86 \ kPa[/tex]

P = 86kPa

T = 15°C + 273K = 288K

R (Gas constant) = 8.31 kj/mol  

Molar mass of Ammonia ([tex]NH_{3}[/tex]) = (1 x 3) + (14) = 17g/mol

n (moles) = [tex]\frac{mass}{molar \ mass}[/tex] [tex]= \frac{56.8}{17} =[/tex] 3.34 mol

V = ?

Rearrange the equation to solve for Volume:

[tex]V = \frac{nRT}{P}[/tex]

Substitute the values inside:

V = [tex]\frac{(3.34)(8.31)(288)}{(86)} = 93 L (rounded)[/tex]

Students were investigating heat transfer by conduction and they set up the simple experiment you see here. They utilized three spoons made of different materials: the specific heat capacity of each material was recorded in the students' data table. Each spoon was placed in a pot of hot (90°C) water and a pat of butter was placed on the handle of each spoon. The butter melted first on the tin spoon and in about the same amount of time on the plastic and wood spoons. Based on the data table and the experimental results select ALL of the conclusions that are appropriate.

A) Conduction occurred more readily in the tin due to its lower specific heat
capacity

B) Heat transfer via conduction occurred from the hot water to the spoons
and then to the butter,

C) When in contact with hot water, there was no transfer of kinetic energy
through the wood or plastic

D) The atoms in the tin spoon vibrated and collided at a greater rate thon
those in the wood or plastic spoons

E) In all three cases energy s transferred from the faster moving hot water
molecules to the slower moving molecules in the spoon​

Answers

Answer:

the Answer is A B D

Explanation:

the cunduction in the spoons are equal to all the following answers

Conduction occurred more readily in the tin due to its lower specific heat capacity, Heat transfer via conduction occurred from the hot water to the spoons and then to the butter, The atoms in the tin spoon vibrated and collided at a greater rate thon those in the wood or plastic spoons. Thus option A,B, D are correct.

What is specific heat ?

Specific heat can be measured as the quantity of heat required to increase the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.

The units of specific heat  are represented as calories or joules per gram per Celsius degree such as the specific heat of water is 1 calorie  per gram per Celsius degree

Specific heat capacity= Heat quantity/ mass × change in temperature.

If Q is the quantity of heat in joules, M is the mass of substance heated,

If ∆O is the change in temperature in Kelvin, Then Q= MC∆O, C is a constant called Specific heat capacity. Therefore, making C the subject of formula:

C= Q /M∆O

Thus option A,B, D are correct.

Suppose you have samples of three unknown solids. Explain how you could use their properties to determine whether or not they are ionic solids.

Answers

Given a sample of three unknown solids, we would be able to deduce which are ionic solids by their melting and boiling points, conductivity in water, and the insulation they provide.

What are Ionic solids?An ionic solid is a solid formed by ionic bonds. They are the solid version of ionic compounds, which are held together by strong electrostatic energies.

What properties do they possess?Among their many properties, ionic solids possess high melting and boiling points.These solids are also known to conduct electricity well when dissolved into water, however, this can be tested after melting them as they will not conduct electricity in a solid state.A final property that we can use to identify them is that they provide a good means of insulation.Each of these properties can be tested and will allow us to determine the ionic solids amongst the samples.

Therefore, we can find the ionic solids amongst the samples by testing their melting and boiling points, conductivity in water, and the insulation they provide, given that each of these should provide high values to indicate an ionic solid.

how many grams are in 4.07x10^15 molecules of calcium hydroxide

Answers

There are 5.01 × 10-⁷grams in 4.07 x 10¹⁵molecules of calcium hydroxide.

HOW TO CALCULATE MASS:

The mass of a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles in the substance by its molecular mass.

However, given that the number of molecules in calcium hydroxide is 4.07 x 10¹⁵molecules, we need to calculate the number of moles in Ca(OH)2 as follows:

no. of moles of Ca(OH)2 = 4.07 x 10¹⁵ ÷ 6.02 × 10²³

no. of moles = 0.676 × 10-⁸

no. of moles = 6.76 × 10-⁹ moles.

Molar mass of Ca(OH)2 = 74.093 g/mol

Mass of Ca(OH)2 = 74.093 × 6.76 × 10-⁹ moles

Mass = 5.01 × 10-⁷grams.

Therefore, there are 5.01 × 10-⁷grams in 4.07 x 10¹⁵molecules of calcium hydroxide.
