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.

Given 50.0 grams of Strontium, find grams of Phosphorus required for complete reaction

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

Explanation:

The balance chemical equation is as follow:

6 Sr + P4 → 2 Sr₃P₂

Step 1: Calculate moles of Sr as;

Moles = Mass / M/Mass

Moles = 50.0 g / 87.62 g/mol

Moles = 0.570 moles

Step 2: Find moles of P₄ as;

According to equation,

6 moles of Sr reacted with = 1 mole of P₄

So,

0.570 moles of Sr will react with = X moles of P₄

Solving for X,

X = 1 mol × 0.570 mol / 6 mol

X = 0.0952 mol of P₄

Step 3: Calculate mass of P₄ as,

Mass = Moles × M.Mass

Mass = 0.0952 mol × 123.89 g/mol

Mass = 11.78 g of P₄

What mass of water was produced if 350.0 L of carbon dioxide were made at STP? C3H8 (g) + 5O2(g) → 2CO2 (g) + 4H2O (g)

madam [21]

700 L of water was produced if 350.0 L of carbon dioxide were made at STP.

The quantitative relationship (ratio) between reactants and products in a chemical reaction that produces gases is known as gas stoichiometry. When the created gases are presumed to be ideal and their temperature, pressure, and volume are all known, gas stoichiometry is applicable.

The ideal gas equation is PV=nRT, where n is the number of moles and R is the gas constant, P is the pressure measured in atmospheres (atm), V is the volume measured in liters (L), and

Calculations based on stoichiometry assist scientists and engineers who work in the business world in estimating the number of items they will make using a particular process. They can also assist in determining if a product will be economical to produce.

Reduced growth, reproduction, and survivability for the consumer are typically the results of a significant stoichiometric imbalance between the primary producer and consumer.
