Boron and sulfur form two binary compounds. The firstcontains 0.2247 g B/1.000 g S, and the second contains0.1348 g B/1.000 g S. If the formula for the first compoundis a multiple of B2S3, then the second is a multiple of: (AW: ?B=10.811; S=32.065) The average atomic mass of Ga is 69.72. Naturallyoccurring Ga is composed of Ga-69, which has an atomicmass of 68.91, and of Ga-71, which has an atomic mass of70.93. What percentage of naturally occurring Ga is Ga-71?

With the advent of techniques such as scanning tunneling microscopy, it is now possible to write with individual atoms by manipulating and arranging atoms on an atomic surface. a. If an image is prepared by manipulating iron atoms and their total mass is 1.05 1020 g, what number of iron atoms were used? b. If the image is prepared on a platinum surface that is exactly 20 platinum atoms high and 14 platinum atoms wide, what is the mass (grams) of the atomic surface? c. If the atomic surface were changed to ruthenium atoms and the same surface mass as determined in part b is used, what number of ruthenium atoms is needed to construct the surface?
Polystyrene can be prepared by heating styrene with tribromobenzoyl peroxide in the absence of air. A sample prepared by this method has the empirical formula Br3C6cH3(C8H8)n, where the value of n can vary from sample to sample. If one sample has 0.105% Br, what is the value of n?
Fulgurites are the products of the melting that occurs when lightning strikes the earth. Microscopic examination of a sand fulgurite shows that it is a globule with variable composition that contains some grains of the definite chemical composition Fe 46.01%, Si 53.99%. Determine the empirical formula of these grains.
Atomic masses are relative masses. What does this mean?
Saccharin is the active ingredient in many sweeteners used today. It is made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and nitrogen. When 7.500 g of saccharin are burned in oxygen, 12.6 g CO2, 1.84 g H2O, and 2.62 g SO2 are obtained. Another experiment using the same mass of sample (7.500 g) shows that saccharin has 7.65% N. What is the simplest formula for saccharin?
A 2.077-g sample of an element, which has an atomic mass between 40 and 55, reacts with oxygen to form 3.708 g of an oxide. Determine the formula of the oxide (and identify the element).
Chlorine exists mainly as two isotopes, 37Cl and 33Cl. Which is more abundant? How do you know?
Two basic laws of chemistry are the law of conservation of mass and the law of constant composition. Which of these laws (if any) do the following statements illustrate? (a) Lavoisier found that when mercury(ll) oxide, HgO, decomposes, the total mass of mercury (Hg) and oxygen formed equals the mass of mercury(ll) oxide decomposed. (b) Analysis of the calcium carbonate found in the marble mined in Carrara, Italy, and in the stalactites of the Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico gives the same value for the percentage of calcium in calcium carbonate. (c) Hydrogen occurs as a mixture of two isotopes, one of which is twice as heavy as the other.
Determine the simplest formulas of the following compounds: (a) tetraethyl lead, the banned gasoline anti-knock additive, which is composed of 29.71% C, 6.234% H, and 64.07% Pb (b) citric acid, present in most sour fruit, which is com- posed of 37.51% C, 4.20% H, and 58.29% O (c) cisplatin, a drug used in chemotherapy, which is composed of 9.34% N, 2.02% H, 23.36% Cl, and 65.50% Pt
When a 2.11 8-g sample of copper is heated in an atmosphere in which the amount of oxygen present is restricted, the sample gains 0.2666 g of oxygen in forming a reddish-brown oxide. However, when 2.118 g of copper is heated in a stream of pure oxygen, the sample gains 0.5332 g of oxygen. Calculate the empirical formulas of the two oxides of copper.
A reagent occasionally used in chemical synthesis is sodium-potassium alloy. (Alloys are mixtures of metals, and Na-K has the interesting property that it is a liquid.) One formulation of the alloy (the one that melts at the lowest temperature) contains 68 atom percent K; that is, out of every 100 atoms, 68 are K and 32 are Na. What is the mass percent of potassium in sodium-potassium alloy?
