Adark brown binary compound contains oxygen and a metal. it is 13.38% oxygen by mass. heating it moderately drives off some of the oxygen and gives a red binary compound that is 9.334% oxygen by mass. strong heating drives off more oxygen and gives still another binary compound, which is only 7.168% oxygen by mass.
(a) compute the mass of oxygen that is combined with 1.000 g of the metal in each of these three oxides.
(b) assume that the empirical formula of the first compound is mo2 (where m represents the metal). give the empirical formulas of the second and third compounds.
(c) name the metal.

Answer from: mariaaalopezz

a) Mass of O in compound A = 32.72 g

Mass of O in compound B = 21.26 g

Mass of O in compound C = 15.94 g

b) Compound A = MO2

Compound B = M3O4

Compound C = MO

c) M = Pb

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A binairy compound contains oxygen (O) and metal (M)

⇒ 13.38 % O

⇒ 100 - 13.38 = 86.62 % M

After heating we get another binairy compound

⇒ 9.334 % O

⇒ 100 - 9.334 = 90.666 % M

After heating we get another binairy compound

⇒ 7.168 % O

⇒ 100 - 7.168 = 92.832 % M

The first compound has an empirical formula of MO2

⇒ 1 mol M for 2 moles O

Step 2: Calculate amount of metal and oxygen in each

compound A: M = m1 *0.8662 O = m1 *0.1338

compound B: M = m2 *0.90666 O = m2 *0.09334

compound C: M = m3 *0.92832 O = m3 *0.07168

Step 3: Calculate mass of oxygen with 1.000 grams of M

Compound A: 1.000g * 0.1338 m1gO / 0.8662m1gMetal = 0.1545

Compound B: 1.000g * 0.09334 m2gO / 0.90666m2gMetal = 0.1029

Compound C: 1.000g * 0.07168 m3gO / 0.92832m3gMetal = 0.07721

Step 4:

1 mol MO2 has 1 mol M and 2 moles O

m1 = (mol O * 16)/0.1338 m1 = 239.2 grams

1 mol M = 0.8632*239.2 = 206.48

0.90666m2 = 206.48 ⇒ m2 = 227.74 g

0.92832m3 = 206.48 ⇒ m3 = 222.42 g

Step 5: Calculate mass of O

Mass of O in compound A = 239.2 - 206.48 = 32.72 g

Mass of O in compound B = 227.74 - 206.48 = 21.26 g

Mass of O in compound C = 222.42- 206.48 = 15.94 g

Step 6: Calculate moles

Moles of O in compound A ≈ 2

⇒ MO2

Moles of O in compound B = 21.26 / 16 ≈ 1.33

⇒ M3O4

Moles of O compound C = 15.94 /16 ≈ 1 moles

⇒ MO

Step 7: Calculate molar mass

The mass of 1 mol metal is 206.48 grams ⇒ molar mass ≈ 206.48 g/mol

The closest metal to this molar mass is lead (Pb)

Answer from: Quest

Mass is the amount of matter in an object. weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. say for example, you travel to the moon which has a different gravitational field compared to the gravitational field of earth. (gravitational fields: earth = 1, moon = 0.165) now when you are on the moon, the pull of gravity on you is different than on the earth. and as weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object, that means yes, your weight can and will change on the moon. however, on the moon, on earth or even on jupiter, the amount of mass inside of you remains the same. meaning your physical mass remains constant. in conclusion it is possible for your weight to change as your mass remains constant.

1. suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 ml of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [ch2(cn)2], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. the solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 ml, and in water is 13.3 g/100 ml. what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction with (a) three 100-ml portions of ether and (b) one 300-ml portion of ether? suggestion: for each extraction, let x equal the weight extracted into the ether layer. in part (a), the concentration in the ether layer is x/100 and in the water layer is (30 x)/300; the ratio of these quantities is equal to k 20/13.3.
