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.

Your task is to create a buffered solution. You are provided with 0.10 M solutions of formic acid and sodium formate. Formic aci

Anton [14]

Answer:

15.2mL of the 0.10M sodium formate solution and 4.8mL of the 0.10M formic acid solution.

Explanation:

To find the pH of a buffer based on the concentration of the acid and conjugate base we must use Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [A⁻] could be taken as moles of the sodium formate and [HA] moles of the formic acid</em>

<em />

4.25 = 3.75 + log [A⁻] / [HA]

0.5 = log [A⁻] / [HA]

3.162 = [A⁻] / [HA] <em>(1)</em>

As both solutions are 0.10M and you want to create 20mL of the buffer, the moles are:

0.10M * 20x10⁻³L =

2x10⁻³moles = [A⁻] + [HA] <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

3.162 = 2x10⁻³moles - [HA] / [HA]

3.162 [HA] = 2x10⁻³moles - [HA]

4.162[HA] = 2x10⁻³moles

[HA] = 4.805x10⁻⁴ moles

[A⁻] = 2x10⁻³moles - 4.805x10⁻⁴ moles = 1.5195x10⁻³moles

That means, to create the buffer you must add:

[A⁻] = 1.5195x10⁻³moles * (1L / 0.10mol) = 0.0152L =

<h3>15.2mL of the 0.10M sodium formate solution</h3>

[HA] = 4.805x10⁻⁴ moles * (1L / 0.10mol) = 0.0048L =

<h3>4.8mL of the 0.10M formic acid solution</h3>

What always happens during a chemical change?

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

In a chemical change, the atoms in the reactants rearrange themselves and bond together differently to form one or more new products with different characteristics than the reactants. When a new substance is formed, the change is called a chemical change.

<u>b. one carbon and two oxygen? </u>

Answer:

(1) Carbon + (2) Oxygen = Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Explanation:

a colorless, odorless gas produced by burning carbon and organic compounds and by respiration. It is naturally present in air (about 0.03 percent) and is absorbed by plants in photosynthesis.

<u>c. one carbon and four chlorine?</u>

Answer:

(1) Carbon + (4) Chlorine = Carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)

Explanation:

Carbon Tetrachloride is a clear, colorless, volatile and very stable chlorinated hydrocarbon. Carbon Tetrachloride is used as a solvent for oils and fats, as a refrigerant and as a dry-cleaning agent. Inhalation of its vapors can depress central nervous system activity and cause degeneration of the liver and kidneys. Carbon Tetrachloride is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals.
