6.6 grams of oxygen reacted with magnesium to give magnesium oxide.

<h3>What is law of conservation of mass?</h3>

When a chemical reaction takes place the total mass of reactants is always equal to the mass of products.As in a chemical reaction the atoms are neither created nor destroyed rather they rearrange themselves.

The reaction between magnesium and oxygen is as follows,

2 Mg+O₂ $\rightarrow$ 2 MgO

According to the question, 10 g of magnesium is utilized to produce 16.6 g of magnesium oxide.In order to find mass of oxygen utilized ,

mass of oxygen=mass of magnesium oxide-mass of magnesium

substituting the given data,

mass of oxygen=16.6-10=6.6 g

Thus, 6.6 grams oxygen reacted to produce 16.6 grams of magnesium oxide.

How many atoms are present in 65.39 g of zinc?

klio [65]

<span>Avogadro's number represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of atoms or molecules into number of moles.

65.39 g Zn ( 1 mol / 65.38 g ) ( </span>6.022 x 10^23 atoms / 1 mol ) = 6.023x10^23 atoms Zn

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Concept: Chemical Analysis

Start by taking inventory of the elements that you have
Make a list, one for the right side and another for the left side
Then add coefficients to the elements to the right or left side to balance out the equation

a 4.18 g sample of a hydrocarbon is combusted in a bomb calorimeter that contains 974 g of water. the temperature of the water i

lys-0071 [83]

The heat of the reaction, in kJ, when 4.18 g of the hydrocarbon are combusted 775.70 kJ.

The heat energy is given as :

q = m c ΔT + Ccal ΔT

q = ( 974 g× 4.184 ×6.9) + 624 ×6.9

q = 32424.59 J

moles of hydrocarbon = 0.0418 mol

heat of combustion = 32424.59 J / 0.0418 mol

= 775707.89 J

= 775.70 kJ

Thus, A 4.18 g sample of a hydrocarbon is combusted in a bomb calorimeter that contains 974 g of water. the temperature of the water increases by 6.9 °C when the hydrocarbon is combusted. the calorimeter constant for the calorimeter was determined to be 624 J/°C. what is the heat of the reaction is 775.70 kJ.
