Find the percent abundances are converted to fractions: 19.80 percent to 19.80/100 or 0.1980 and 80.20 percent to 80.20/100 or .8020. We find the contribution to the average atomic mass for each isotope, and then add the contributions together to obtain the average atomic mass. (0.1980)(10.0129amu) + (0.8020)(11.0093amu) = 10.8129

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) cures scurvy. It is composed of 40.92 percent carbon (C) 4.58 percent hydrogen (H), and 54.50 percent oxygen (O) by mass. Determine its empirical formula

If we have 100 g of ascorbic acid, then each percentage can be converted directly to grams. In this sample, there will be 40.92 g of C, 4.58 of H, and 54.50 g of O. Because the subscripts in the formula represent a mole ratio, we need to convert the grams of each element to moles. The conversion factor needed is the molar mass of each element. let n represent the number of moles each element has... NC- 40.92 g C x (1 mol C/12.01 g C) =3.407 mol C NH= 4.58 g H x (1 mol H/ 1.008 g H) = 4.54 mol H NO=54.50 g O x (1 mol O/ 16.00 g O) =3.406 mol O Thus, we arrive at the formula C3.407H4.54O3.406, which gives the identity and the mole ratios of atoms present. However, chemical formulas are written with whole numbers. Try to convert to whole numbers by dividing all the subscripts ny the smallest subscript (3.406): C: (3.407/3.406)= 1 H: (4.54/3.406)= 1.33 O: (3.406/3.406)=1 Where the = sign means "approximately equal to". This gives CH1.33O as the formula for ascorbic acid. Next, we need to convert 1.33, the subscript for H, into an integer. This can be done by a trial-and-error procedure: 1.33 x 1 = 1.33 1.33 x 2 = 2.66 1.33 x 3 = 3.99 Because 1.33 x 3 gives us an integer (4), we multiply all the subscripts by 3 and obtain C3H4O3, as the empirical formula for ascorbic acid.

Methane (CH4) is the principal component of natural gas. How many moles of CH4 are present in 6.07 g of CH4?

The conversion factor needed to convert between grams and moles is the molar mass. First we need to calculate the molar mass of CH4, following the procedure in 3.5... molar mass of CH4= 12.01 g + 4(1.008 g) =16.04 g Because... 1 mol CH4 = 16.04 g CH4 the conversion factor we need should have been grams in the denominator so that the unit g will cancel, leaving the unit mol in the numerator 1 mol CH4/16.04 g CH4 We now write... 6.07 g CH4 x (1 mol CH4/16.04 g CH4) = 0.378 mol CH4

Helium (He) is a valuable gas used in industry, low-temperature research, deep sea diving tanks, and balloons. How many moles of He atoms are in 6.46g of He?

The conversion factor needed to convert between grams and moles is the molar mass. In the periodic table, we see that the molar mass of He is 4.003 g. This can be expressed as... 1 mol He= 4.003 g He From this equality, we can write two conversion factors, 1 mole He/4.003 g He and 4.003 g He/1 mole He The conversion factor on the left is the correct one. Grams will cancel, leaving the unit mol for the answer- that is... 6.46 g He x (1 mol He/4.003 g He)= 1.61 mol He

Zinc (Zn) is a silvery metal that is used in making brass (with copper) and in plating iron to prevent corrosion. How many grams of Zn are in 0.356 mole of Zn?

The conversion factor needed to convert between moles and grams is the molar mass. In the periodic table, we see the molar mass of Zn is 65.39 g. This can be expressed as 1 mol Zn= 65.39 g Zn From this equality we can write two conversion factors 1 mol Zn/ 65.39 g Zn AND 65.39 g Zn/1 mol Zn The conversion factor on the right is the correct one. Moles will cancel, leaving the unit of grams for the answer- that is... 0.356 mol Zn x (65.39 g Zn/1 mol Zn) = 23.3 g Zn

Phosphoric Acid (H3PO4) is a colorless, syrupy liquid used in detergents, fertilizers, toothpastes, and in carbonated beverages for a "tangy" flavor. Calculate the percent composition by mass of H, P, and O in this compound

The molar mass of H3PO4 is 97.99 g. The percent by mass of each of the elements in H3PO4 is calculated... %H= ((3(1.008g)H)/97.99 g H3PO4) x 100%=3.086% %P=(30.97 g P/97.99 g H3PO4) x100% = 31.61 % %O= ((4(16.00g) O/97.99 g H3PO4) x 100% =65.31%

Chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) is a principal mineral of copper. Calculate the number of kilograms of Cu in 3.71 x 10^3 kg of chalcopyrite.

The molar masses of Cu and CuFeS2 are 63.55 g and 183.5 g, respectively. The mass percent of Cu is therefore... %Cu= molar mass of Cu/ molar mass of CuFeS2 x 100% = (63.55g/183.5g) x 100%= 34.63% To calculate the mass of Cu in a 3.71 x 10^3 kg sample of CuFeS2, we need to convert the percentage to a fraction (that is, convert 34.63 percent to 34.63/100 or 0.3463) and write mass of Cu in CuFeS2=0.3463 x (3.71 x 10^3 kg) = 1.28 x 10^3 kg

molecular mass

Calculate the molecular masses (in amu) of the following compounds (a) sulfur dioxide (SO2), a gas that is responsible for acid rain (b) caffeine (C8H10N4O2), a stimulant present in tea, coffee, and cola beverages

To calculate molecular mass, we need to sum all the atomic masses in the molecule. For each element, we multiply the atomic mass of the element by the number of atoms of that element in the molecule. We find atomic masses in the periodic table (a) There are two O atoms and one S atom in SO2, so that... molecular mass of SO2=32.07 amu + 2(16.00 amu) = 64.07 (b) There are eight C atoms, ten H atoms, four N atoms, and two O atoms in caffeine, so the molecular mass of C4H10N4O2 is given by... 8(12.01 amu) + 10(1.008 amu) + 4(14.01 amu) + 2(16.00 amu) = 194.20 amu

How many hydrogen atoms are present in 25.6 g of urea [(NH2)2CO], which is used as a fertilizer, in animal feed, and in the manufacture of polymers? The molar mass of urea is 60.06 g.

To calculate the number of H atoms, we first must convert grams of urea to moles of urea using the molar mass of urea. This part is similar to 3.2. The molecular formula of urea shows there are four moles of H atoms in one mole of urea molecule, so the mole ratio is 4:1. Finally, knowing the number of moles of H atoms, we can calculate the number of H atoms using Avogadro's number. We need two conversion factors: molar mass and Avogadro's number. We can combine these conversions grams of urea-> moles of urea-> moles of H-> atoms of H into one step: 25.6 g (NH2)2CO x (1 mol (NH2)2CO/60.06 g (NH2)2CO) x (4 mol H/1 mol (NH2)2CO) x (6.022 x 10^23 H atoms/ 1 mol H) = 1.03 x 10^24 H atoms
