The following charges on individual oil droplets were obtained during an experiment similar to Millikan's. Determine a charge for the electron( in coulombs), and explain your answer:
Magnesium oxide (MgO) forms when the metal burns in the air.How many grams of Mg are in534 g of MgO?
Explain the following statement: The smallest particles unique to an element may be atoms or molecules.
State the mass law(s) demonstrated by the following experimental results, and explain your reasoning:
Experiment 1: A student heats 1.27 g of copper and 3.50 g of iodine to produce 3.81 g of a white compound; 0.96 g of iodine remains.
Experiment 2: A second student heats 2.55 g of copper and 3.50 g of iodine to form 5.25 g of a white compound, and 0.80 g of copper remains.
The mass percent of sulfur in a sample of coal is a key factor in the environmental impact of the coal because the sulfur combines with oxygen when the coal is burned and the oxide can then be incorporated into acid rain. Which of the following coals would have the smallest environmental impact?
Mass (g) of Sample | Mass(g) of Sulfur in Sample | |
Coal A | 378 | 11.3 |
Coal B | 495 | 19.0 |
Coal C | 675 | 20.6 |
