1) Chemical equation:
Mg + I2 ---> Mg I2
2) molar ratios
1 mol Mg : 1 mol I2 : 1 mol Mg I2
3) Calculate the number of moles of Mg in 48 grams
Atomic mass of Mg: 24.3 g/mol
number of moles = mass in grams / atomic mass = 48 g / 24.3 g/mol = 1.975 mol Mg
4) Use a proportion with the molar ratios
1 mol I2 / 1 mol Mg = x / 1.975 mol Mg =>
=> x = 1 mol I2 * 1.975 mol Mg / 1 mol Mg = 1.975 mol I2
5) Convert 1.975 mol I2 to grams
molar mass of I2 = 2 * 126.9 g/mol = 253.8 g/mol
mass = number of moles * molar mass = 1.975 mol * 253.8 g/mol = 501.255 g
Answer: 501 grams
Although there exists a dipole moment in the molecule, I guess its nonpolar because the dipole is very small as the electronegativity difference between the Br and Cl is very low and so it can be neglected.
Answer:
32.57g
Explanation:
mass = mole x molar mass
mass of LiBr = 0.375 x 86.85
mass = 32.57g
Answer:
Mass does not change based on gravity
Explanation:
Mass is how much matter is in an object. That's why we have the same mass on Moon, Neptune, etc.
But weight depends on gravity. That's why our weight on the moon is less than Earth because the Moon's gravity is less than Earth.
