1.386 g of Mg ribbon combusts to form 2.309 g of oxide product. The mass percent of oxygen in the oxide is 40.0 %.

Let's consider the reaction for the combustion of Mg.

Mg + 1/2 O₂ ⇒ MgO

1.386 g of Mg combusts to form 2.309 g of MgO. We want to determine the mass of oxygen in MgO. According to Lavoisier's law of conservation of mass, matter is not created nor destroyed over the course of a chemical reaction. Then, the mass of Mg in the reactants is equal to the mass of Mg in MgO. The mass of the magnesium oxide is the sum of the masses of magnesium and oxygen. The <u>mass of oxygen in the oxide</u> is:

mMgO = mMg + mO\\mO = mMgO - mMg = 2.309 g - 1.386 g = 0.923 g

We can calculate the mass percent of O in MgO using the following expression.

\% O = \frac{mO}{mMgO} \times 100\% = \frac{0.923 g}{2.309g} \times 100\%  = 40.0 \%

a concentration solution of H2so4 is 59.4% by mass (m/m) and has a density of 1.83 g/mL. How many mL of the solution would be re
Blababa [14]

Answer: 41.5 mL

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in L

Given : 59.4 g of H_2SO_4 in 100 g of solution  

moles of H_2SO_4=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{59.4g}{98g/mol}=0.61

Volume of solution =\frac{\text {mass of solution}}{\text {density of solution}}=\frac{100g}{1.83g/ml}=54.6ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

Molality=\frac{0.61\times 1000}{54.6ml}=11.2M

To calculate the volume of acid, we use the equation given by neutralisation reaction:

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the molarity and volume of stock acid which is H_2SO_4

M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the molarity and volume of dilute acid which is H_2SO_4

We are given:

M_1=11.2M\\V_1=mL\\M_2=0.30M\\V_2=1550mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

11.2\times V_1=0.30\times 1550\\\\V_1=41.5mL

Thus 41.5 mL of the solution would be required to prepare 1550 mL of a .30M solution of the acid

g Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each are ____________ . The cis and trans isomers of a particular compound are ___
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Diasteriomers

Stereoisomers

Stereoisomers

Meso compounds

Constitutional isomers

Enantiomers

Enantiomers

Explanation:

Isomers are compounds that posses the same molecular formula but different structural formulas.

Constitutional isomers differ only in atom to atom connectivity while stereoisomers differ in arrangement of atoms in space. Stereo isomers differ in physical and chemical properties of the compounds.

When stereo isomers are non-superimpossible mirror images of each other, they are called enantiomers. Enantiomers have the same chemical and physical properties and differ only in their reaction with chiral substances.

Achiral compounds are compounds that do not exhibit chirality. Some achiral compounds contain stereogenic centers and are called meso compounds.
