Answer:
3.43 %
Explanation:
We need to calculate first the number of moles of CeO2 produced in the combustion. Given its formula we know how many moles of Ce atom are present. From there calculate the mass this number of moles this represent and then one can calculate the percentage.
0.1848 g CeO2 x 1 mol CeO2/172.114g = 0.00107 mol CeO2
0.00107 mol CeO2 x 1 mol Ce/ 1 mol CeO2 = 0.00107 mol Ce
.00107 mol Ce x 140.116 g Ce/ mol = 0.150 g Ce
0.150 g Ce/ 4.3718 g sample x 100 = 3.43 %
Answer:
Explanation:
If the reaction is really exothermic (and it is) then the water would spatter all over the place. It would boil off if the container could hold it. It would also react according to the following reaction.
You are talking about a reaction like
2K + 2HOH = 2KOH + H2
Answer:
C) 1 and 3
Explanation:
A period in the periodic table is a row of chemical elements. All elements in a row have the same number of electron shells. ... Arranged this way, groups of elements in the same column have similar chemical and physical properties, reflecting the periodic law.
This is seen in the first law of Thermodynamics stating that matter and energy cannot be destroyed nor created.
