What is the percentage of water in the following compound? Answer using three significant figures. Sodium carbonate decahydrate,
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
The trick for this problem is to understand atomic mass: the fact that different atoms have different masses. What we need to do is add up all the atomic masses of the compound and work out the ratio of mass of water to the mass of sodium carbonate. Atomic masses are often given for each atom in the periodic table, but you can look them up on google too.

You can do this by adding up individual atoms for each molecule, or you can shortcut and lookup the molar mass of the compound (i.e.the task already done for you). 

The molar mass of water is 18.01g/mole so for 10 moles of water we have a mass of 180.1g.


The molar mass of sodium carbonate is 106g/mole (google).

So the total mass of the sodium carbonate decahydrate compound is 180.1+106 = 286.1g, of which water would make up 180.1g, so the percentage of water is is 180.1/286.1 = 0.629, so we can round this to 63%

Calculate the amount of work done against an atmospheric pressure of 1.00 atm when 500.0 g of zinc dissolves in excess acid at 3
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

19,26 kJ

Explanation:

The work done when a gas expand with a constant atmospheric pressure is:

W = PΔV

Where P is pressure and ΔV is the change in volume of gas.

Assuming the initial volume is 0, the reaction of 500g of Zn with H⁺ (Zn(s) + 2H⁺(aq) → Zn²⁺(aq) + H₂(g)) produce:

500,0g Zn(s)×\frac{1molZn}{65,38g}×\frac{1molH_{2}(g)}{1molZn} = 7,648 moles of H₂

At 1,00atm and 303,15K (30°C), the volume of these moles of gas is:

V = nRT/P

V = 7,648mol×0,082atmL/molK×303,15K / 1,00atm

V = 190,1L

That means that ΔV is:

190,1L - 0L = <em>190,1L</em>

And the work done is:

W = 1atm×190,1L = 190,1atmL.

In joules:

190,1 atmL×\frac{101,325}{1atmL} = <em>19,26 kJ</em>

I hope it helps!

In a few sentences, describe the molecular polarity and the intermolecular forces present in ammonium lauryl sulfate.
Sergio [31]

Answer:

A polar molecule is a molecule in which one end of the molecule is slightly positive, while the other end is slightly negative. A diatomic molecule that consists of a polar covalent bond, such as HF, is a polar molecule. The two electrically charged regions on either end of the molecule are called poles, similar to a magnet having a north and a south pole. A molecule with two poles is called a dipole. Hydrogen fluoride is a dipole. A simplified way to depict polar molecules is pictured below When placed between oppositely charged plates, polar molecules orient themselves so that their positive ends are closer to the negative plate and their negative ends are closer to the positive plate

Experimental techniques involving electric fields can be used to determine if a certain substance is composed of polar molecules and to measure the degree of polarity.

For molecules with more than two atoms, the molecular geometry must also be taken into account when determining if the molecule is polar or nonpolar. is a comparison between carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a linear molecule. The oxygen atoms are more electronegative than the carbon atom, so there are two individual dipoles pointing outward from the C atom to each O atom. However, since the dipoles are of equal strength and are oriented in this way, they cancel each other out, and the overall molecular polarity of CO2 is zero.

Water is a bent molecule because of the two lone pairs on the central oxygen atom. The individual dipoles point from the H atoms toward the O atom. Because of the shape, the dipoles do not cancel each other out, and the water molecule is polar. In the figure, the net dipole is shown in blue and points upward.

Some other molecules are shown below (Figure below). Notice that a tetrahedral molecule such as CH4 is nonpolar. However, if one of the peripheral H atoms is replaced by another atom that has a different electronegativity, the molecule becomes polar. A trigonal planar molecule (BF3) may be nonpolar if all three peripheral atoms are the same, but a trigonal pyramidal molecule (NH3) is polar.

How many molecules are in 70.7 grams of C4H10?
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

1.216mol

Explanation:

The molar mass of C₄H₁₀ is (12 x4)+ (1x 10) = 48 + 10 = 58g

1 grams C4H10 is equal to 0.017205129881525 mole.

70.7 grams = 70.7 x 0.017205129881525  = 1.216mol
