What would be the mass in grams of 0.300 moles of the ionic compound formed when magnesium metal reacts with oxygen

Chemistry
1 answer:
yarga [219]2 years ago

Answer:

Balanced Equation for reaction between Magnesium and Oxygen:

2Mg + O₂ --> 2MgO

Molar Mass of MgO is the atomic masses listed on the periodic table for the two elements Magnesium and Oxygen. Magnesium's molar mass is 24g/mol, and Oxygen's molar mass is 16g/mol. So MgO's molar mass would be 24 + 16 = 40g/mol.

The equation to find moles is:

moles \ = \ \frac{mass}{molar \ mass}

So if we rearrange this equation to find for mass:

mass = moles \ * \ molar \ mass

So you have to multiply 0.300 moles by 40, which gives you 12g

Meaning the mass of Magnesium Oxide is 12g.

A 111.6 gram sample of iron (MW=55.8) was heated from 0 degrees C to 20 degrees C. It absorbed 1004 Joules of energy. What is th
qwelly [4]
Use the equation q=ncΔT.
q= heat absorbed our released (in this case 1004J)
n= number of moles of sample ( in this case 2.08 mol)
c=molar heat capacity 
ΔT=change in temperature (in this case 20°C)
You have to rewrite the equation for c.
c=q/nΔT
c=1004J/(2.08mol x 20°C)
c=24.1 J/mol°C
 
I hope this helps

Calcium has an atomic number of 20. How many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding?
NARA [144]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.

What types of chemical<br> reactions can change a toxic<br> chemical into one that is less<br> toxic
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Very toxic materials are substances that may cause significant harm or even death to an individual if even very small amounts enter the body.There are a number of very toxic materials that may be used in workplaces. Some examples include carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, chlorine and sodium cyanide

Explanation:

here are generally four types of toxic entities; chemical, biological, physical and radiation: Chemical toxicants include inorganic substances such as, lead, mercury, hydrofluoric acid, and chlorine gas, and organic compounds such as methyl alcohol, most medications, and toxins.
