For many years chloroform (CHCl3) was used as an inhalation anesthetic in spite of the fact that it is also a toxic substance that may cause severe liver, kidney, and heart damage. Calculate the percent composition by mass of this compound to four significant figures.

SEE EXPLANATION

Explanation:

We must first obtain the molar mass of CHCl3 as follows;

CHCl3 = ( 12.01 * 1 )+ (1.008 * 1 ) + ( 35.45 * 3 ) => 119.37 g/mol

Then we obtain the percentage by mass of each element

For Carbon =  ( atomic mass C / molar mass CHCl3 ) * 100

C  =  (12.01 / 119.37 ) * 100

C = ( 0.1006 * 100 )

C =  10.06 %

For Hydrogen :

H = ( atomic mass H / molar mass CHCl3 ) * 100

H = ( 1.008 / 119.37 ) * 100

H = 0.008444 * 100

H = 0.8444 %

For Chlorine :

Cl  ( molar mass Cl3 / molar mass CHCl3 ):

Cl =  ( 3 * 35.5 / 119.37 ) * 100

Cl =  ( 106.5 / 119.37 ) * 100

Cl = 0.8921 * 100

Cl = 89.92%

the food using pesticides in the future will harm you by giving you diseases like cancer or something since they have things that we should not eat in it like chemicals or pesticides. that is why organic food is more expensive because they take the time to make it right and healthy for you to eat.

explanation:

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
