8. Nickel can react with gaseous carbon monoxide to form Ni(CO)₄. Other metals present do not react. If 74.2 g of a mixture of metals reacts with carbon monoxide to produce 98.4 g of Ni(CO)₄, what is the mass percent of nickel in the original sample. (Hints to think about: What are the units of mass percent? 74.2 g is the whole thing (total). If you have the Ni(CO)₄ as a product, how much nickel do you need? If you divide 74.2 by 98.4, it is completely wrong.)

States of Matter

The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).

Chemical Reactions and Equations

When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.

Cloth can be waterproofed by coating it with a silicone layer. This is done by exposing the cloth to (CH3)2 SiCl2 vapor. The silicon compound reacts with OH groups on the cloth to form a waterproofing film (density = 1.0 g/cm³) of [(CH3)2 SiO], where n is a large integer number. n (CH3) SiCl2 + 2n OH → 2n Cl + n H₂O + [(CH3)2 SiO] n The coating is added layer by layer, with each layer of [(CH3)2 SiO], being 0.60 nm thick.
