- Two general chemistry students working together in the lab weigh out 0.832 g of CaCl2 2 H2O into a crucible. After heating the sample for a short time and allowing the crucible to cool, the students determine that the sample has a mass of 0.739 g. They then do a quick calculation. On the basis of this calculation, what should they do next? (a) Congratulate themselves on a job well done. (b) Assume the bottle of CaCl2 2 H2O was mislabeled; it actually contained something different. (c) Heat the crucible again, and then reweigh it.arrow_forwardThe structure of one of the bases in DNA, adenine, is shown here.

- Cacodyl, a compound containing arsenic, was reported in 1842 by the German chemist Robert Wilhelm Bunsen. It has an almost intolerable garlic-like odor. Its molar mass is 210 g/mol, and it is 22.88% C, 5.76% H, and 71.36% As. Determine its empirical and molecular formulas.arrow_forward3.123 Most periodic tables provide molar masses with four or five significant figures for the elements. How accurately would you have to measure the mass of a sample of roughly 100 g to make a calculation of the number of moles of the chemical to have its significant figures limited by the molar mass calculation rather than the mass measurement?arrow_forwardWhen the supply of oxygen is limited, iron metal reacts with oxygen to produce a mixture of FeO and Fe2O3. In a certain experiment, 20.00 g iron metal was reacted with 11.20 g oxygen gas. After the experiment, the iron was totally consumed, and 3.24 g oxygen gas remained.
