What would the % p, on the npk ratio, be reported as for a 100g sample containing 7.5g of phosphorous?

When the concentration is expressed in percentage, you simply have to divide the amount of substance to the total amount of the mixture, then multiply it by 100. In this case, when you want to find the percentage of P in the sample, the solution is as follows:

%P = 7.5 g/100 g * 100 = 7.5%

Ans: 7.50% of P

Given:

Mass of NPK sample = 100 g

Mass of P in sample = 7.5 g

To determine:

The % P in the given sample

Explanation:

The percent of a particular substance (say,X) in a given total amount (M) is generally expressed as:

% X = [Mass of X/Total mass]*100

In this case:

%P = [mass of P/mass of NPK sample]*100

= [7.5/100]*100 = 7.5%

A metal oxide with the formula mo contains 15.44% oxygen. in the box below, type the symbol for the element represented by m.

lana66690 [7]

Answer: The element represented by M is Strontium.

Explanation:

Let us consider the molar mass of metal be 'x'.

The molar mass of MO will be = Molar mass of oxygen + Molar mass of metal = (16 + x)g/mol

It is given in the question that 15.44% of oxygen is present in metal oxide. So, the equation becomes:

$\frac{15.44}{100}\times (x+16)=16g/mol\\\\(x+16)=\frac{16g/mol\times 100}{15.44}\\\\x=(103.626-16)g/mol\\\\x=87.62g/mol$

The metal atom having molar mass as 87.62/mol is Strontium.

Hence, the element represented by M is Strontium.

In some chemical reactions, electrons are transferred from one substance to another, but there is no net gain or loss of electro

Natali [406]

Answer and Explanation:

The equation that depicts oxidation of neutral atom A is shown below:

$\rightarrow A^+ + e^-$

This is because one species is losing electrons due to oxidation. The species possesses positively charged after losing electrons, the magnitude of which is proportional to the number of electrons lost.

The net charge will be equivalent on both sides of the equation, too.

Therefore all other options are not correct

The equation that depicts the decline of neutral atom X is

$X + e^- \rightarrow X^-$

It is how a cell gains electrons by reduction. The species obtains a negative charge upon possessing electrons, whose magnitude is equivalent to the amount of electrons gained.

The net charge will be equivalent on both sides of the equation, too.

Therefore all other options are not correct

Which quantity can vary among atoms of the same element?

Wewaii [24]

There is this thing called isotopes
it means that atoms of the same element can have a different number of neutrons.
if there is a change in the no. of neutrons, there will definitely be a change in the mass number.

so the answer is A) mass number
