Answer : The percent composition of hydrogen in a compound is, 15%

Solution : Given,

The mass of compound = 276 grams

The mass of collected hydrogen after decomposition = 41.4 grams

Formula used :

\%\text{ composition of hydrogen}=\frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Mass of compound}}\times 100

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the percent composition of hydrogen.

\%\text{ composition of hydrogen}=\frac{41.4g}{276g}\times 100=15\%

Therefore, the percent composition of hydrogen in a compound is, 15%

Which of the following statements is true about the following reaction?
MAVERICK [17]

The correct reaction equation is:

3NaHCO_{3} (aq) + C_{6}H_{8}O_{7} (aq) \rightarrow 3CO_{2} (g) + 3H_{2}O (l) + Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7} (aq)

Answer:

b) 1 mole of water is produced for every mole of carbon dioxide produced.

Explanation: <u>CONVERT EVERYTHING TO MOLES OR VOLUME, THEN COMPARE IT WITH THE COMPOUND'S STOICHIOMETRY IN CHEMICAL EQUATION.</u>

a) <u>22.4 L of CO_{2} gas</u> is produced only when <u>\frac{22.4}{3} L of  C_{6}H_{8}O_{7}</u> is reacted with 22.4 L of NaHCO_{3}. So it is wrong.

b) Since in the chemical equation the stoichiometric coefficient of CO_{2}  and H_{2}O are same so the number of moles or volume of each of them will be same whatever the amount of reactants taken. <u>Therefore it is correct option.</u>

c)  6.02\times 10^{23} molecules is equal 1 mole of Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7} if produced then 3 moles of NaHCO_{3} is required, which is not given in the option. So it is wrong.

d) 54 g of water or 3 moles of H_{2}O (<em>Molecular Weight of water is 18 g</em>) is produced when 3 moles of NaHCO_{3} is used but in this option only one mole of NaHCO_{3} is given. So it is wrong.

4.8g of calcium is added to 3.6g of water. The following reaction occurs
notka56 [123]
Q1)
the number of moles can be calculated as follows
number of moles = mass present / molar mass
number of moles is the amount of substance.
4.8 g of Ca was added therefore mass present of Ca is 4.8 g
molar mass of Ca is 40 g/mol 
molar mass is the mass of 1 mol of Ca
therefore if we substitute these values in the equation 
number of moles of Ca = 4.8 g / 40 g/mol = 0.12 mol
0.12 mol of Ca is present 

q2)
next we are asked to calculate the number of moles of water present 
again we can use the same equation to find the number of moles of water
number of moles = mass present / molar mass
3.6 g of water is present 

sum of the products of the molar masses of the individual elements by the number of atoms 
H - 1 g/mol and O - 16 g/mol 
molar mass of water = (1 g/mol x 2 ) + 16 g/mol = 18 g/mol 
molar mass of H₂O is 18 g/mol 
therefore number of moles of water  = 3.6 g / 18 g/mol = 0.2 mol 
0.2 mol of water is present

Answer:

Follows are the explanation to this question:

Explanation:

When the drug is negatively charged, its negative electrolyte is annihilated to just the positive electrode. It is enticed, and it may not have a picture showing the electrode, however, We suppose that electrodes from either side of a skin slice. Its negative electrode will bypass or push thru the skin if in front of the counter terminal this becomes a red-positive electrode.

How many grams of oxygen are in 56 g of c2h2o2?
jolli1 [7]
First, find percent of oxygen: atom/molecule... there are 2 atoms of Oxygen so: O2/C2H2O2 which is: 32g O2 / 58g C2H2O2 =32/58. 

<span>Next, multiply this by the total mass (56g C2H2O2) and the units will cancel out (g*g/g -> g) leaving you with the mass of Oxygen: </span>

<span>56g C2H2O2 * 32g O2/58g C2H2O2 = 56*32/58= 31g</span>

A sample taken from a layer of mica in a canyon has 2.10 grams of potassium-40. A test reveals it to be 2.6 billion years old. H
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

\boxed{ \text{8.40 g}} 

Explanation:

The half-life of K-40 (1.3 billion years) is the time it takes for half of it to decay.  

After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.  

After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.  

We can construct a table as follows:  

 No. of                                 Fraction

<u>half-lives</u>      <u>    t/yr      </u>       <u>Remaining</u>  

      0               0                          1

      1                1.3  billion              ½

      2              2.6                          ¼

      3              3.9                          ⅛

We see that after 2 half-lives, ¼ of the original mass remains.

Conversely, if two half-lives have passed, the original mass must have been four times the mass we have now.

Original  mass = 4 × 2.10 g = \boxed{ \text{8.40 g}}
