The total mass is 10.57+6.96=17.53 g.

So, the percent by mass of magnesium is (10.57)/(17.53) * 100 = 60.3%

The percent by mass of oxygen is (6.96)/(17.53) * 100 = 39.7%

Did entropy increase or decrease?

seropon [69]

Answer:

1) increase

2) increase

Explanation:

Entropy is the degree of disorderliness or randomness of a system. It is the measure of the unavailable energy in a system.

Entropy increases with increase in the number of particles. If the number of particles in a system increases from left to right, the entropy of the system increases accordingly.

In reaction 1, the number of particles from left to right increased from two to three hence the entropy was increased.

In reaction 2, the number of particles from left to right increased from three to five hence the entropy was increased.

Law of action-reaction

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects. The size of the forces on the first object equals the size of the force on the second object.

As the temperature of a gas increases, _____. (select all the options that correctly complete the sentence.)

weeeeeb [17]

As the temperature of a gas increases, the average kinetic energy of the gas particles increases and the average speed of a gas particle increases.

According to the kinetic theory of gases, all gases are made of microscopic molecules that move in straight lines until they bump into another gas molecule or object. This transfer of energy causes molecules to move around faster and bump into each other more.

Kinetic energy is proportional to the speed of the molecules. As the speed of the colliding molecules increases, so does the total kinetic energy of all the gas molecules. It's pretty difficult to measure the speed of an individual gas molecule.

Instead, temperature can be used as a measure of the average kinetic energy of all the molecules in the gas. As the gas molecules gain energy and move faster, the temperature goes up. This is why Amy feels warmer!

To determine the average kinetic energy of gas molecules, we need to know the temperature of the gas, the universal gas constant (R), and Avogadro's number (NA).

A solution is made by dissolving 4.87 g of potassium nitrate in water to a final volume of 86.4 mL solution. What is the weight/

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

A solution is made by dissolving 4.87 g of potassium nitrate in water to a final volume of 86.4 mL solution. The weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute is :

2.67%

Explanation:

Note : Look at the density of potassium nitrate in water if given in the question.

You are calculating weight /Volume not weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute

Here the weight/weight % or percent by mass of the solute is asked : So first convert the VOLUME OF SOLUTION into MASS

Density of potassium nitrate in water KNO3 = 2.11 g/mL

$density=\frac{mass}{volume}$
