- Two elements, R and Q, combine to form two binary compounds. In the first compound, 14.0 g of R combines with 3.00 g of Q. In the second compound, 7.00 g of R combines with 4.50 g of Q. Show that these data are in accord with the law of multiple proportions. If the formula of the second compound is RQ, what is the formula of the first compound?arrow_forwardUranium-235 is used in nuclear fission. Determine the number of protons and the number of neutrons in uranium-235 and write its symbol in the form AZX.arrow_forwardAlthough carbon-12 is now used as the standard for atomic weights, this has not always been the case. Early attempts at classification used hydrogen as the standard, with the weight of hydrogen being set equal to 1.0000. Later attempts defined atomic weights using oxygen (with a weight of 16.0000 ). In each instance, the atomic weights of the other elements were defined relative to these masses. (To answer this question, you need more precise data on current atomic weights: H,1.00794 u; O, 15.9994 u.) (a) If H=1.0000 u was used as a standard for atomic weights, what would the atomic weight of oxygen be? What would be the value of Avogadro's number under these circumstances?(b) Assuming the standard is O=16.0000 u, determine the value for the atomic weight of hydrogen and the value of Avogadro's number.arrow_forward
- The vitamin niacin (nicotinic acid, C6H5NO2) can be isolated from a variety of naturalsources such as liver, yeast, milk, and whole grain. It also can be synthesized fromcommercially available materials. From a nutritional point of view, which source ofnicotinic acid is best for use in a multivitamin tablet? Why?arrow_forwardSince 1800, almost 200 sincere but erroneous reports ofthe discovery of new chemical elements have been made.Why have mistaken reports of new elements been sonumerous? Why is it relatively easy to prove that a material is not a chemical element, but difficult to prove absolutely that a material is an element?arrow_forwardA new compound has the empirical formula GaCl2. Thissurprises some chemists who, based on the position of gallium in the periodic table, expect a chloride of gallium to have the formula GaCl3 or possibly GaCl. They suggest that the “GaCl2” is really Ga[GaCl4], in which the bracketed group behaves as a unit with a -1 charge. Suggest experiments to test this hypothesisarrow_forward
