Answer:

The simplest formula of this compound is XY2Z4

We would have 2.352 moles of Z in a sample that contains 0.588 moles X

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A compound contains 3 elements

X = 0.221 mol

Y = 0.442 mol

Z = 0.884 mol

Step 2: Calculate the mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

X = 0.221/0.221 = 1

Y = 0.442/0.221 = 2

Z = 0.884/0.221 = 4

The empirical formula is XY2Z4

This means for each 1 X atom we have 2 Y atoms and 4 Z atoms.

If we have 0.588 moles X this means we have 0.588*2 = 1.176 moles of Y

And 0.588 *4 = 1.176*2 = 2.352 moles of Z

The simplest formula of this compound is XY2Z4

We would have 2.352 moles of Z in a sample that contains 0.588 moles X

Answer:

XY₂Z₄

2.35 mol Z

Explanation:

A sample of the compound contains 0.221 mol X, 0.442 mol Y, and 0.884 mol Z. We can find the simplest formula (empirical formula) by <em>dividing all the numbers of moles by the smallest one</em>.

X: 0.221/0.221 = 1

Y: 0.442/0.221 = 2

Z: 0.884/0.221 = 4

The simplest formula is XY₂Z₄.

The molar ratio of X to Z is 1:4. The moles of Z in a sample that contained 0.588 moles of X is:

0.588 mol X × (4 mol Z/1 mol X) = 2.35 mol Z

aliina [53]
<span>Answer Choices: 
A) Ca 
B) O 
C) Cl 
D) s</span>

<span>the formula is Li2X, so the charge on the X anion must be 2- 

the ion is X2- elements in group 6A form monatomic ions with a 2- charge. In your list that is O or Po 

If the element can accomodate 12 electrons then it can have an expanded octet. Only elements in period 3 and higher can have expanded octets. 

So you are looking for a group 6A element in period 3 or higher.
cA would not intereact with LI BECAUSE ITS A METAL The only element that fits the bill is D) S</span>

Hardness in groundwater is due to the presence of metal ions, primarily Mg2+ and Ca2+ . Hardness is generally reported as ppm Ca
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

[Ca⁺²] = 0.0123 M

1234 ppm of CaCO₃

Explanation:

Ca(In)²⁺ + EDTA ⟶ Ca(EDTA)²⁺ + In

To solve this problem we need to keep in mind the definition of Molarity (moles/L) and parts per million (mg CaCO₃ / L water). First we <u>calculate the moles of EDTA</u>:

  • 0.0450 M * 13.70 mL = 0.6165 mmol EDTA

Looking at the reaction we see that one mol of EDTA reacts with one mol of Ca(In)²⁺, so we have as well 0.6165 mmol Ca(In)²⁺ (which for this case is the same as Ca⁺²). We calculate the molarity of Ca⁺²:

  • [Ca⁺²] = 0.6165 mmol / 50 mL = 0.0123 M

For calculating the concentration in ppm, we use the moles of Ca⁺² and the molecular weight of CaCO₃ (100.09 g/mol):

  • 0.6165 mmol Ca⁺² * \frac{1mmolCaCO_{3}}{1mmolCa^{+2}} * 100.09 mg/mmol = 61.70 mg CaCO₃

<u>That is the mass of CaCO₃ present in 50 mL</u> (or 0.05 L) of water, so the concentration in ppm is:

  • 61.70 mg / 0.05 L = 1234 ppm

The shape of hair is determined in part by the pattern of disulfide bonds in keratin, its major protein. From first to last, arr
UNO [17]

Answer:

I.A thiol containing reagent and Heating(gentle)

II. Disulfide bond Breaker for Keratin

III. curling the hair physically

IV.A good oxidizing agent application

V. Disulfide bonds reformer for keratin  to hold the shape

Explanation:

The hair is mostly made of Keratin which is a structural proteins with about 15% cysteine

In order to change the hair appearance on the outside a reducing agent is required containing a thiol as to reduce the formation of the sulfide and disulfide bridges formation in the hair so the that any changes can be applied without the body naturally turning it back, i-e allowing easier manipulation after this  hairs are to be curled physically in order to keep this a oxidizing agent is applied and then finally a keratin reformer is added to hold the shape

A researcher suspects that the pressure gauge on a 54.3-L gas cylinder containing nitric oxide is broken. An empty gas cylinder
mixer [17]

Answer:

Number of moles nitric acid in the cylinder is 400.539g/mol.

Explanation:

From the given,

Weight of empty gas cylinder W_{1}= 90.0 lb= 40823.3 gramsWeight of full cylinder[tex]W_{2} = 116.5 lb= 52843.511 gramsThe critical temperature = 287 KThe critical pressure 54.3 LMolar mass of nitric acid = [tex]M_{NO} = 30.01 g/mol

Number of moles nitric acid = n_{NO} =?

The mass of nitric acid in the cylinder = W_{NO}=W_{2}-W_{1}

=52843.511-40823.3 =12,020.2g

Number of moles of nitric acid =

\frac{Given\,mass}{Molar\,mass}=\frac{12,020.2}{30}=400.539g/mol

Therefore, number of moles nitric acid in the cylinder is 400.539g/mol.
