Given:

7.20 g sample of Al2(SO4)3

Required:

Mass of oxygen

Solution:

                Since you are not given a chemical reaction, just base your solution to the chemical formula given.

Molar mass of Al2(SO4)3 = 342.15 g/mol

7.20 g Al2(SO4)3 (1 mol/342.15g)(3mol O/2 mol Al)(1 mol O2/1/2 mol O2)(32g O2/1mol O2) = 4.04 g O2

7.20 g of a sample of Al2(SO4)3 contains 4.04 g of oxygen.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2><h3>A compound  </h3>
  • A compound is a substances that contains two or more different atoms that are bonded together. When the atoms are similar the substance is known as a molecule, therefore not all molecules are compounds.
<h3>Molar mass </h3>
  • Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a compound or a substance. The molar mass of a compound is the mass that is equivalent to the sum of relative atomic masses of the atoms of elements making up the compound.
<h3>Mass percent composition of a compound </h3>
  • Mass percent composition of a compound is calculated by dividing the mass of element in one mole of the compound by the molar mass of the compound and multiplying by 100%.

In this case we are require to calculate the mass of Oxygen in 7.2 g of Al2(SO4)3

  • Therefore; the molar mass of Al2(SO4)3 will be; 342.15 g/mol  
  • Al2(SO4)3 is made up of two Al atoms, three sulfur atoms, and 12 oxygen atoms.

Therefore;

1 mole of Al2(SO4)3 contains a mass of 192 g of Oxygen  

Thus; A sample of 7.20 g Al2(SO4)3 will contain;

= ((7.2 g Al2(SO4)3x(192 g O))/ 342.15 g/mol Al2(SO4)3

= 4.04 g Oxygen

SO3 has how many regions of high electron density and how many bonded electrons when the octet rule is strictly obeyed?1.5; 142.
motikmotik

Answer:

3 regions of high electronic density

2 simple links

1 double bond

Explanation:

Hello!

First we calculate the total valence electrons that make up the molecule (6 + 6 * 3 = 24)

We locate six electrons forming the bonds and complete the octecs with the remaining 18 electrons.

We move 2 electrons of an oxygen to complete the sulfur octet.

What volume of a 0.00945-M solution of potassium hydroxide would be required to titrate 50.00 mL of a sample of acid rain with a
andrezito [222]

Answer:

1.30mL

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is given below:

H2SO4 + 2KOH —> K2SO4 + 2H2O

From the equation above we obtained the following:

Mole of acid (nA) = 1

Mole of base (nB) = 2

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mb = 0.00945M

Vb =?

Va = 50mL

Ma = 1.23 × 10^−4M

Using MaVa / MbVb = nA/nB, we can calculate the volume of KOH as illustrated below:

MaVa / MbVb = nA/nB

(1.23 × 10^−4 x 50)/0.00945xVb = 1/2

Cross multiply to express in linear form

1.23 × 10^−4 x 50 x 2 = 0.00945xVb

Divide both side by 0.00945

Vb = (1.23 × 10^−4 x 50 x 2) /0.00945

Vb = 1.30mL

What mass of titanium is produced from 380g of titanium chloride?
emmainna [20.7K]
Molar mass of TiCl₃ = (47.9 + 35.5×3) g/mol = 154.4 g/mol 
No. of moles of TiCl₃ = (380 g) / (154.4 g/mol) = 2.46 mol 

1 mole of TiCl₃ contains 1 mole of Ti. 
No. of moles of Ti needed = (2.46 mol) × 1 = 2.46 mol 

Molar mass of Ti = 47.9 g/mol 
Mass of Ti needed = (2.46 mol) × (47.9 g/mol) = 118 g
