Heating 1.29 g of gallium gives a gallium-oxygen compound with a mass of 1.73 g.
-How many grams of oxygen are in the 1.73 grams of gallium-oxygen compound.
.44 grams
27.68g
To determine the mass of oxygen in the gallium-oxygen compound, we need to find the difference between the total mass of the compound (1.73 g) and the mass of gallium.
Given:
Mass of gallium = 1.29 g
Mass of gallium-oxygen compound = 1.73 g
The mass of oxygen in the compound can be calculated as follows:
Mass of oxygen = Mass of gallium-oxygen compound - Mass of gallium
Mass of oxygen = 1.73 g - 1.29 g
Mass of oxygen = 0.44 g
Therefore, there are 0.44 grams of oxygen in the 1.73 grams of gallium-oxygen compound.
To find the mass of oxygen in the gallium-oxygen compound, we need to determine the mass of gallium in the compound first. Then, we can subtract this mass from the total mass of the compound to find the mass of oxygen.
Given:
Mass of gallium = 1.29 g
Mass of gallium-oxygen compound = 1.73 g
To find the mass of oxygen:
Mass of oxygen = Mass of gallium-oxygen compound - Mass of gallium
Mass of oxygen = 1.73 g - 1.29 g
Mass of oxygen = 0.44 g
Therefore, there are 0.44 grams of oxygen in the 1.73 grams of gallium-oxygen compound.
