Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 2.13 grams of magnesium was dissolved in the solution.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

Mg²⁺(aq) + Na₂CO₃(aq) → MgCO₃(s) + 2 Na⁺(aq)

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • Mg²⁺: 1 mole
  • Na₂CO₃: 1  mole
  • MgCO₃: 1 mole
  • Na⁺: 2 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

  • Mg²⁺: 24.3 g/mole
  • Na₂CO₃: 106 g/mole
  • MgCO₃: 84.3 g/mole
  • Na⁺: 23 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • Mg²⁺: 1 mole ×24.3 g/mole= 24.3 grams
  • Na₂CO₃: 1 mole ×106 g/mole= 106 grams
  • MgCO₃: 1 mole ×84.3 g/mole=84.3 grams
  • Na⁺: 2 moles ×23 g/mole= 46 grams

<h3>Mass of magnesium dissolved</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: If by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of Na₂CO₃ react with 24.3 grams of magnesium, 0.0877 moles of Na₂CO₃ react with how much mass of magnesium?

mass of magnesium=\frac{0.0877 moles of Na_{2}C O_{3}x24.3 grams of magnesium }{1 mole of Na_{2}C O_{3}}

<u><em>mass of magnesium= 2.13 grams</em></u>

Finally, 2.13 grams of magnesium was dissolved in the solution.

Why does the mixture of Fe and S have different reactions than the compound FeS?
mario62 [17]

Answer:

fe+s is a mixture of iron and sulphur and it can be separated by magnetic separation. But FeS is a compound formed by heating iron and sulphur together.it can't be separated by any method.

Here are some of the differences between a mixture of iron and sulfur, and iron sulfide: the mixture can contain more or less iron, but iron sulfide always contains equal amounts of iron and sulfur. the iron and sulfur atoms are not joined together in the mixture, but they are joined together in iron sulfide.

How would adding the catalyst nitrogen monoxide (NO) affect this reaction?
marin [14]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A catalyst is defined as the substance which increases the rate of the reaction without actually participating in the reaction.

This substance decreases the activation energy of the reactants, so as to proceed the reaction at a faster rate by increasing their effective collisions.

It does not affect the concentration of the reactants.

For the given reaction:

2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)

If we add NO, which is acting as a catalyst will increase the rate of the reaction to produce the products which is SO_3

Hence, the correct answer is Option A.
