Answer:

The oxide formula is Fe_{2}O_{3}

Explanation:

The provided compound contains iron (Fe) and oxygen (O).

Therefore, mass of oxygen in the sample = (total mass) - (mass of iron)

                                                   = (6.285 g) - (4.396 g)

                                                   = 1.889 g

Molar mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol and of iron = 55.845 g/mol.

Thus, the ratio of moles of Fe and O (Fe: O)

      = \frac{4.396}{55.845}:\frac{1.889}{16}

      = 0.0787: 0.118

      = 1:\frac{0.118}{0.0787}

      = 1: 1.5

      = 2: 3.

Consequently, the oxide formula is Fe_{2}O_{3}.

21.7 mL of gas at 98.8 kPa is allowed to expand at constant temperature into a 52.7 mL container. What is the new pressure of th
alisha [2963]
The new pressure of the gas is calculated to be 40.7 kPa. Using the principle that P1 • V1 = P2 • V2, we can set 98.8 kPa (P1) multiplied by 21.7 mL (V1) equal to P2 (unknown pressure) multiplied by 52.7 mL (V2). To isolate P2, we rearrange the equation to P2 = (98.8 kPa • 21.7 mL) / 52.7 mL, resulting in P2 equal to 40.7 kPa.

A 126-gram sample of titanium metal is heated from 20.0°C to 45.4°C while absorbing 1.68 kJ of heat. What is the specific heat o
lorasvet [2795]
The specific heat of titanium metal is 0.524 J/g°C. Given that Q = 1.68 kJ, which equates to 1680 Joules, with a mass of 126 grams and initial and final temperatures of 20°C and 45.4°C respectively, the specific heat is computed using the formula Q = (mass)(ΔT)(Cp), where ΔT = T₂ - T₁ = 25.4°C. Plugging in the numbers leads us to Cp = 0.524 J/g°C.

An unknown liquid has a mass of 4.25 × 108 mg and a volume of 0.250 m3. what is the density of the liquid in units of g/ml?
VMariaS [2998]
Density is calculated as mass divided by volume.
  Step one:
Convert m³ to ml.
1 m³ = 1,000,000 ml
0.250 m³ x 1,000,000 = 250,000 ml
  Step two: Convert mg to g.
1 mg = 0.001 g, hence 4.25 x 10^8 mg equals 0.459 g.
Consequently, the density comes out to be 0.459 g/250,000 = 1.836 x 10^-6 g/ml.

If the standard free energy change for the conversion of fructopyranose to fructofuranose is 1.7 kJ/mol, what fraction of the to
alisha [2963]
The connection between Gibb's free energy and temperature can be described as follows. The value for \Delta G is specified as 1.7 kJ/mol. Additionally, we know that k = \frac{[product]}{[substrate]}

= \frac{\text{[fructofuranose]}}{\text{[fructopyranose]}}. Since k has a value of 0.50357 at a temperature of 298 K, we can conclude that

\frac{\text{[fructofuranose]}}{\text{[fructopyranose]}} = 0.50357, leading to \frac{\text{[fructofuranose]}}{\text{[fructopyranose]}} + 1 = 1.50357, which equals \frac{\text{[total fructose solution]}}{\text{[fructopyranose]}} \frac{1}{1.50357} = 0.665. Therefore, we can deduce that 0.665 of the total fructose in the solution exists as fructopyranose.

Aqueous silver ion reacts with aqueous chloride ion to yield a white precipitate of solid silver chloride. When 10.0 mL of 1.00M
Tems11 [2777]

Answer:

Explanation:

AgNO3 + NaCl --> AgCl + NaNO3

Moles

of AgNO3

= molarity * volume

= 1 * 0.01

= 0.01 mol

for NaCl

= 0.01 * 1

= 0.01 mol.

According to stoichiometry, one mole of silver nitrate corresponds to one mole of NaCl reacted. Hence,

Moles of AgCl generated = 0.01 × 1

= 0.01 mol AgCl produced.

Heat gained by the solution as precipitation occurs:

Solution mass = density × volume

= 1 × 20

= 20 g.

Using q = m * Cp * (T2 - T1)

= 20 * 4.18 * (32.6 - 25.0)

= 635 J

The absorbed heat of 635 J indicates the reaction released -635 J

Thus, Delta H = -635 J/0.01 mol

= -63500 J/mol

= -63.5 kJ/mol.
