Answer:
2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
Explanation:
Chemical equation:
Mg + O₂ → MgO
Balanced chemical equation:
2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
The balanced equation s given above and it completely follow the law of conservation of mass.
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Steps to balanced the equation:
Step 1:
Mg + O₂ → MgO
Mg = 1 Mg = 1
O = 2 O = 1
Step 2:
2Mg + O₂ → MgO
Mg = 2 Mg = 1
O = 2 O = 1
Step 3:
2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
Mg = 2 Mg = 2
O = 2 O = 2
Sulphur Dioxide. Toxic. Don't eat it.
<span>The student should
follow following steps to make 1 L of </span>2.0 M CaCl₂.<span>
<span>
1. First he should
calculate the number of moles of 2.0 M CaCl</span></span>₂ in 1 L solution.<span>
</span>Molarity of the solution = 2.0 M<span>
Volume of solution which should be prepared = 1 L
Molarity =
number of moles / volume of the solution
Hence, number of moles in 1 L = 2 mol
2. Find
out the mass of dry CaCl</span>₂ in 2 moles.<span>
moles =
mass / molar mass
Moles of CaCl₂ =
2 mol</span><span>
Molar mass of CaCl₂ = </span><span>110.98 g/mol
Hence, mass of CaCl</span>₂ = 2 mol x <span>110.98 g/mol
= 221.96
g
3. Weigh the mass
accurately
4. Then take a cleaned and dry1 L volumetric flask and place a funnel top of it. Then carefully add the salt into the volumetric flask and
finally wash the funnel and watch glass
with de-ionized water. That water also should be added into the volumetric
flask.
5. Then add some
de-ionized water into
the volumetric flask and swirl well until all salt are
dissolved.
<span>6. Then top up to
mark of the volumetric flask carefully.

7. As the final step prepared solution should be labelled.
Remember that a cation will be smaller than its neutral atom, and an anion will be larger than its neutral atom. This would automatically eliminate answer choices A and D.
Also keep in mind that atomic radii decreases from left to right as you move along a periodic table. It also decreases from bottom up.
Atomic radii increases as you move from right to left and as you go from up to down.
As bromine is higher up in the periodic table than Iodine, it would have a smaller radius. Iodine would have a larger radius.
The correct answer is B. Br
