Sodium reacts with oxygen in air to form two compounds: sodium oxide and sodium peroxide. In forming sodium oxide, 23.0 g of sodium combines with 8.0 g of hydrogen. In forming sodium peroxide, 23.0 g of sodium combines with 16.0 g of oxygen. (a) What are the mass ratios of oxygen in the two compounds?

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the two compounds formed: sodium oxide (Na2O) and sodium peroxide (Na2O2).
Calculate the mass ratio of oxygen in sodium oxide. Given that 23.0 g of sodium combines with 8.0 g of oxygen, the mass ratio of oxygen to sodium in sodium oxide is 8.0 g of oxygen per 23.0 g of sodium.
Calculate the mass ratio of oxygen in sodium peroxide. Given that 23.0 g of sodium combines with 16.0 g of oxygen, the mass ratio of oxygen to sodium in sodium peroxide is 16.0 g of oxygen per 23.0 g of sodium.
Compare the mass ratios of oxygen in the two compounds. This involves comparing the ratio of 8.0 g of oxygen to 23.0 g of sodium in sodium oxide with the ratio of 16.0 g of oxygen to 23.0 g of sodium in sodium peroxide.
Express the mass ratios as a simple ratio or fraction to clearly show the difference in the amount of oxygen combined with a fixed amount of sodium in each compound.

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is the branch of chemistry that deals with the quantitative relationships between the reactants and products in a chemical reaction. It allows chemists to calculate the amounts of substances consumed and produced in a reaction based on balanced chemical equations. Understanding stoichiometry is essential for determining mass ratios and ensuring that the law of conservation of mass is upheld.

Mass Ratio

A mass ratio is a comparison of the mass of one substance to the mass of another substance, often expressed as a fraction or percentage. In the context of chemical compounds, it helps to understand the proportion of elements within a compound. Calculating mass ratios is crucial for analyzing the composition of compounds formed in reactions, such as sodium oxide and sodium peroxide in this case.
