Lets name the unknown metal as M. Cation would be M³⁺.
the molecular formula of the compound is M₂(SO₄)₃
the mass of one mole - (molar mass of M x2 + 3 x molar mass of SO₄²⁻)
= 2M + 96 x 3
= 2M + 288
In 1 mol if there's 72.07% of sulphate ,
then 72.07 % corresponds to 288 g
1 % is then - 288/72.07
100 % of the compound - 288/72.07 x 100
molar mass of the compound - 399.6 g/mol
mass of 2M - 399.6 - 288 = 111.6 g
molar mass of M - 111.6 /2 = 55.8 g/mol
the element with molar mass of 55.8 is Fe.
Unknown metal is iron(III) , Fe³⁺
Answer:
P₂ = 3.86 atm .
Explanation:
We assume that during this change , the temperature of the gas remains constant .
So the gas will obey Boyle's law .
P₁ V₁ = P₂V₂
5.08 x 7.56 = P₂ x 9.94
P₂ = 3.86 atm .
