This question considers some uranium chemistry. A small sample of uranium metal (0.169 g) is heated to 900 °C in air to give 0.199 g of a dark green oxide, UxOy. How many moles of uranium metal were used? What is the empirical formula of the oxide UxOy? What is the name of the oxide? How many moles of UxOy, must have been obtained? The oxide UxOy is obtained if UO2NO3 · n H2O is heated to temperatures greater than 800 °C in air. However, if you heat it gently, only the water of hydration is lost.
