Explanation:

what you have to do is to multiply the given grams with the ratio of grams of that certain element in it's full compound in order to isolate the compound and get the element.

because the question did not specify how many grams of NO2 is formed, we can assume that the mass is neglegible, thus 1 mole was assigned to Nitrogen.

Barium sulfate, BaSO4, is a white crystalline solid that is insoluble in water. It is used by doctors to diagnose problems with
pshichka [43]

Answer:2

Explanation:

Ba(OH)2 contains two oxygen atoms

BaSO4 contains four oxygen atoms.

This means that barium sulphate contains two more oxygen atoms than barium hydroxide in its formula. This is clearly seen from the two formulae shown above.

If 6.00 g of the unknown compound contained 0.200 mol of C and 0.400 mol of H, how many moles of oxygen, O, were in the sample?
Arada [10]

Convert moles to mass.

mass C = 0.2 mol * 12 g / mol = 2.4 g

mass H = 0.4 mol * 1 g / mol = 0.4 g

So mass left for O = 6 g – (2.4 g + 0.4 g) = 3.2 g

 

Calculating for moles O given mass:

moles O = 3.2 g / (16 g / mol) = 0.2 moles

 

Answer:

<span>0.2 moles O</span>

If a 0.10 M solution of a colored substance has a maximum absorbance at 500 nm and an absorbance of 0.26 M at this wavelength, w
Mashcka [7]
Absorbance is related to the concentration of a substance using the Beer-Lambert's Law. According to this law, absorbance is linearly related to concentration. However, this is only true up to a certain concentration depending on the substance. For this case, we assume that the said law is applicable.

A = kC
Using the first conditions, ewe solve for k.
0.26 = k (0.10)
k = 2.6

A = kC
A = 2.6 (0.20) = 0.52

Therefore, the absorbance at a concentration of 0.20 M and wavelength of 500nm is 0.52.

A saturated solution of potassium iodide contains, in each 100 mL, 100 g of potassium iodide. The solubility of potassium iodide
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Specific gravity of the saturated solution is 2

Explanation:

The specific gravity is defined as the ratio between density of a solution (In this case, saturated solution of potassium iodide, KI) and the density of water. Assuming density of water is 1:

Specific gravity  = Density

The density is the ratio between the mass of the solution and its volume.

In 100mL of water, the mass of KI that can be dissolved is:

100mL * (1g KI / 0.7mL) = 143g of KI

That means all the 100g of KI are dissolved (Mass solute)

As the volume of water is 100mL, the mass is 100g (Mass solvent)

The mass of the solution is 100g + 100g = 200g

In a volume of 100mL, the density of the solution is:

200g / 100mL = 2g/mL.

The specific gravity has no units, that means specific gravity of the saturated solution is 2

At which temperature do the molecules of an ideal gas have 3 times the kinetic energy they have at 32of?
algol [13]

Answer:

  • 820 K

Explanation:

As per Boltzman equation, <em>kinetic energy (KE)</em> is in direct relation to the <em>temperature</em>, measured in absolute scale Kelvin.

  • KE α T.

Then, <em>the temperature at which the molecules of an ideal gas have 3 times the kinetic energy they have at any given temperature will be </em><em>3 times</em><em> such temperature.</em>

So, you must just convert the given temperature, 32°F, to kelvin scale.

You can do that in two stages.

  • First, convert 32°F to °C. Since, 32°F is the freezing temperature of water, you may remember that is 0°C. You can also use the conversion formula: T (°C) = [T (°F) - 32] / 1.80

  • Second, convert 0°C to kelvin:

         T (K) = T(°C) + 273.15 K= 273.15 K

Then, <u>3 times</u> gives you: 3 × 273.15 K = 819.45 K

Since, 32°F has two significant figures, you must report your answer with the same number of significan figures. That is 820 K.
