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.

UkoKoshka [18]

X moles of hot water vapor(H2O) * 1 mol Fe3O4 / 4 mol H2O * 233.55g Fe3O4 / 1 mol = 275 g

Solve the equation

x = 4.71 mol of hot water vapor (steam)

Why is the sky black in space

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:Since there is virtually nothing in space to scatter or re-radiate the light to our eye, we see no part of the light and the sky appears to be black.

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

B, D, E, C, A

Explanation:

We have 5 blocks with their respective masses and volumes.

Block Mass Volume

A 65.14 kg 103.38 L

B 0.64 kg 100.64 L

C 4.08 kg 104.08 L

D 3.10 kg 103.10 L

E 3.53 kg 101.00 L

The density (ρ) is an intensive property resulting from dividing the mass (m) by the volume (V), that is, ρ = m / V

ρA = 65.14 kg / 103.38 L = 0.6301 kg/L

ρB = 0.64 kg / 100.64 L = 0.0064 kg/L

ρC = 4.08 kg / 104.08 L = 0.0392 kg/L

ρD = 3.10 kg / 103.10 L = 0.0301 kg/L

ρE = 3.53 kg / 101.00 L = 0.0350 kg/L

The order from least dense to most dense is B, D, E, C, A

What is Newton's first law of motion? How can you describe the effect of a vehicle restraint using Newton's first law of motion?

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Newton's First Law states that an object in motion will stay in motion, an object at rest will stay at rest, at a constant velocity, unless an unbalanced force acts upon it.

Newtons First law of motion has to do with seat belts because think about it, what happens when we don't wear a seat belt and our vehicle comes to a quick stop. What happens to you? You move forward and stay in motion until an unbalanced force acts upon you. Now what is an unbalanced force? An unbalanced force is one that is not opposed by an equal and opposite force operating directly against the force intended to cause a change in the object's state of motion or rest. So, when you come to a stop, you wouldn't stop motion unless a force is caused to change your motion and put you at rest. If you were wearing a seat belt, the seat belt would act as the unbalanced force, it would stop you from being in motion.
