Answer:

4.72 × 10²⁴ molecules

Explanation:

Number of mols of a substance = mass of substance/molar mass of substance

Mass of carbon dioxide (CO2) = 345g

Molar Mass of Carbon = 12

Molar Mass of Oxygen = 16

Molar mass of CO2 = 12 + (16 x 2) = 44 g/mol

Number of mols of 345 grams of CO2 = 345/44 = 7.84 mols

Number of molecules of a substance = number of mols x Avogadro's constant.

= 7.84 mol x 6.02 × 10²³ /mol

= 4.72 × 10²⁴

Hence, the number of molecules in 345 grams of carbon dioxide is 4.72 × 10²⁴ molecules.

A piston containing 0.120moles of methane gas, CH4, has a volume of 2.12liters. If methane is added until the volume is increase

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

2.83 g

Explanation:

At constant temperature and pressure, Using Avogadro's law

$\frac {V_1}{n_1}=\frac {V_2}{n_2}$

Given ,

V₁ = 2.12 L

V₂ = 3.12 L

n₁ = 0.120 moles

n₂ = ?

Using above equation as:

$\frac{2.12}{0.120}=\frac{3.12}{n_2}$

$2.12n_2=0.12\cdot \:3.12$

$2.12n_2=0.3744$

$n_2=\frac{0.3744}{2.12}$

$n_2=0.17660$

n₂ = 0.17660 moles

Molar mass of methane gas = 16.05 g/mol

So, Mass = Moles*Molar mass = 0.17660 * 16.05 g = 2.83 g

2.83 g are in the piston.

Suppose you have two cubes of exactly the same volume. You weigh them and find a mass of 8.91g for one and 8.88g for the other c

Yuliya22 [10]

The two substances have different densities. Density can be affected by the temperature of a substance. Since they have to same volume but weigh differently, they have different densities. Remember, density = mass/volume

Write the Lewis structure for ethanol (CH3CH2OH), the alcohol found in alcoholic beverages, then answer the following questions:

hodyreva [135]

Answer :

(1) The number of valence electrons present in the compound is, 20

(2) The number of bonded electrons present in the compound is, 16

(3) The number of lone pair electrons present in the compound is, 4

(4) The number of single bonds present in the compound is, 8

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $CH_3CH_2OH$

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electrons and oxygen has '6' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $CH_3CH_2OH$ = 2(4) + 6(1) + 6 = 20

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 16 number of bonding electrons and 4 number of non-bonding electrons or lone pair of electrons.

The Lewis-dot structure of $CH_3CH_2OH$ is shown below.

Use the conversion factor 1amu=6.66054 x 10^-24 to answer the following questions.. . a) 1.674 x 10^-24 g of neutrons is how man

Wewaii [24]

A.) The conversion factor is 1 amu = $1.66054 ^{-24}g$

To know how many amu in $1.674x10^{-24}g$ grams of neutrons:
$1.674x10^{-24}g ( \frac{x (amu) }{ 1.66054x10^{-24} g)}$

=1.00811 amu

b.) The mass in grams of one lithium ion which has an atomic weight of 6.94 amu.

$6.94 amu (\frac{6.66054 ^{-24} g}{1 amu})$ = $4.62241x10 ^{23} g$

c.) How many amu in 6.492x10^-23g potassium?

$6.492x10^{-23}g ( \frac{x (amu) }{ 1.66054x10^{-24}g })$ = 39.0957 amu
