Answer is: <span>number of grams of oxygen present in a sample is </span>37,41 g.
m(S) = 50 g.
mass percentage (S) = 57,20 % = 0,572.
mass percentage (O) = 100% - 57,20% 
mass percentage(O) = 42,8% = 0,428.
m(O) = ?.
make proportion 57,20% : 42,8% = 50 g : m(O)
57,2% · m(O) = 42,8% · 50 g.
m(O) = 42,8% · 50 g ÷ 57,2%.
m(O) = 37,41 g.

Answer:

37.41 grams of oxygen present in a sample of this compound that contains 50.00 grams of S.

Explanation:

Mass of Sulfur present in the sample = 50.00 g

Mass of oxygen present in the sample = m

Total mass of the sample of the compound =  = 50.00 g + m

Percentage of sulfur by mass in the compound = 57.20%

\%(S)=\frac{\text{Mass of sulfur}}{\text{Total mass of the compound}}\times 100

57.20\%=\frac{50.00 g}{50.00g + m}\times 100

m = 37.41 g

37.41 grams of oxygen present in a sample of this compound that contains 50.00 grams of S.

If you perform the experiment described in investigation #15 by mixing 10 g of glue with 13 g of water and 8 g of sodium borate
Phantasy [73]

10 g of glue with 13 g of water ,

Mass ratio of the material can be calculated as:    

\frac{Mass of glue}{Mass of glue + Mass of water}  

\frac{10 g}{10 g + 13 g }  

\frac{10 g}{23 g }

8 g of sodium borate suspended in 11 g of water, mass ratio can be calculated as:

\frac{Mass of sodium borate}{Mass of sodium borate + Mass of water}  

\frac{ 8 g}{ 8 g + 11 g }  

\frac{8 g}{19 g }

If an ionic compound were composed of a4+ and b−, which unit cell structure would give a neutral compound?
Ymorist [56]
<span>biological reactions that happen within cells while reducing the complex interactions found in a whole cell. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells have been used for creation of these simplified environments[1]. Subcellular fractions can be isolated by ultracentrifugation to provide molecular machinery that can be used in reactions in the absence of many of the other cellular components. Cell-free biosystems can be prepared by mixing a number of purified enzymes and coenzymes. Cell-free biosystems are proposed as a new low-cost biomanufacturing platform compared to microbial fermentation used for thousands of years. Cell-free biosystems have several advantages suitable in industrial applications</span>

Titration of a 20.0-mL sample of acid rain required 1.7 mL of 0.0811 M NaOH to reach the end point. If we assume that the acidit
Rasek [7]

Answer:

Concentration of sulfuric acid in the acid rain sample is 0.0034467 mol/L.

Explanation:

Volume of NaOH = 1.7 ml = 0.0017 L

Molarity of NaOH = 0.0811 M

Moles of NaOH = n

0.0811 M=\frac{n}{0.0017 L}

n = 0.0001378 mol

H_2SO_4+2NaOH\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O

According to reaction, 2 mol of NaOH neutralize 1 mol of sulfuric acid.

Then 0.0001378 mol of NaOH will neutralize:

\frac{1}{2}\times 0.0001378 mol=6.8935\times 10^{-5} mol of sulfuric acid.

Concentration of sulfuric acid in the acid rain sample: x

x=\frac{6.8935\times 10^{-5}}{0.02 L}=0.0034467 mol/L

Concentration of sulfuric acid in the acid rain sample is 0.0034467 mol/L.
