The formula of the compound is XY. This means that the relation between the moles is 1: 1. One mole of X per one mole of Y.

From the information about the element X you can determine the number of moles of X (which is the same that the number of moles of Y).

# of moles of X = weigth of X / atomic mass of X = 17.15 g / 22.9 g/mol = 0.74598

Now the atomic mass of Y = weight of Y / # of moles of Y = 14.17 g / 0.74598 mol = 19 amu

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.

In a certain experiment, 28.0 mL of 0.250 M HNO3and 53.0 mL of 0.320 M KOH are mixed. Calculate the number of moles of water for
Xelga [282]

Answer:

The number of moles of water formed in the resulting reaction is 6.03

[H+]: 37,2 M

[OH-]: 37,2 M

Explanation:

HNO3  +  KOH ----> KNO3 + H2O

First, we must discover the limiting reagent and we need to find out the moles, we use for this.

Moles that are used = Molarity / volume

HNO3 : 0,250 mol/L / 0,028L = 8,93 moles

KOH : 0,320 mol/L / 0,053L = 6,03 moles

The ratio of the reagents by stoichiometry is 1 to 1, so the limiting reagent is KOH, if I need 1 mole of nitric per mole of KOH, for every 8.93 moles I will need the same. However I have only 6.03 moles of KOH

The ratio of the reagents/products by stoichiometry is 1 to 1 so if I need 1 mol of KOH to make 1 mol of Water, 6,03 moles of KOH are used to make 6,03 moles of H2O.

The equilibrium of water is this:

2H2O ⇄ H3O+  +  OH-

2 moles of water are broken down into 1 mole of hydronium (H3O +) and 1 mole of hydroxyl (OH-)

6,03 moles of water are broken down into the half of those moles, so we have 3,015 moles of H3O+ and 3,015 moles of OH- but these moles are in 81,0 mL (the volume of the two solutions, 28 mL + 53 mL)

We must find out the moles in 1000 mL (1 L) so let's apply the rule of three.

81 mL ____ 3,015 moles

1000 mL ___ ( 1000 . 3,015) /81 = 37,2 M

One of the emission spectral lines for Be31 has a wavelength of 253.4 nm for an electronic transition that begins in the state w
max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

   \lambda = 253.4 nm = 253.4 \times 10^{-9}m      (as 1 nm = 10^{-9})

            n_{1} = 5,        n_{2} = ?

Relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

                    E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

                       = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} Js \times 3 \times 10^{8} m/s}{253.4 \times 10^{-9}}

                       = 0.0784 \times 10^{-17} J

                       = 7.84 \times 10^{-19} J

Hence, energy released is 7.84 \times 10^{-19} J.

Also, we known that change in energy will be as follows.

     \Delta E = -2.178 \times (Z)^{2}[\frac{1}{n^{2}_{2}} - \frac{1}{n^{2}_{1}}

where, Z = atomic number of the given element

 7.84 \times 10^{-19} J = -2.178 \times (4)^{2}[\frac{1}{n^{2}_{2}} - \frac{1}{(5)^{2}}

    \frac{7.84 \times 10^{-19} J}{34.848} = \frac{1}{n^{2}_{2}} - \frac{1}{(5)^{2}}

      0.02 + 0.04 = \frac{1}{n^{2}_{1}}

                      n_{1} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{0.06}}

                          = 4

Thus, we can conclude that the principal quantum number of the lower-energy state corresponding to this emission is n = 4.

Calculate the mass in grams of 1.32x10^20 uranium atoms
scoundrel [369]
<span>Uranium has an atomic weight of 238.03 g/mol. We have 1.32x10^20 atoms of uranium. We must convert this to moles by dividing Avogadro's number 6.022x10^23 atoms/mol. (1.32x10^20atoms)/(6.022x10^23atoms/mol) 2.19x10^-4moles of Uranium Now multiply this by the atomic weight of Uranium. 2.19x10^-4mol*238.03g/mol Grams of Uranium = .0522g</span>
