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.

Hydrogen can reduce copper oxide but not aluminium oxide explain​
Llana [10]

Answer: as copper has lower electrode potential value than hydrogen, it could be reduced by hydrogen.

Explanation: hydrogen has zero reduction potential while Cu has +0.34V and Al has -1.66 V .

SO in electrochemical series who has most negative or less reduction potential value tends to be a good reducing agent than the other.

Hope it helps...

If 5.0 moles of C3H8 react, how many molecules of water are formed?
artcher [175]
Balance Chemical Equation for combustion of Propane is as follow,

                         C₃H₈  +  5 O₂    →    3 CO₂  +  4 H₂O

According to equation,

              1 mole of C₃H₈ on combustion gives  =  4 moles of H₂O
So,
        5 moles of C₃H₈ on combustion will give  =  X moles of H₂O

Solving for X,
                                    X  =  (5 mol × 4 mol) ÷ 1 mole

                                    X  =  20 moles of H₂O

Calculating number of molecules for 20 moles of H₂O,
As,
                        1 mole of H₂O contains  =  6.022 × 10²³ molecules
So,
                20 moles of H₂O will contain  =  X molecules

Solving for X,
                                 X  =  (20 mole × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules) ÷ 1 mol

                                 X  =  1.20 ×10²⁵ Molecules of H₂O
