Explanation:
The balanced equation of the reaction is given as;
Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2 HBr (aq) → MgBr2 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)
1. How many grams of MgBr2 will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr produces 1 mol of MgBr2
Converting to masses using;
Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass
Molar mass of HBr = 80.91 g/mol
Molar mass of MgBr2 = 184.113 g/mol
This means;
(2 * 80.91 = 161.82g) of HBr produces (1 * 184.113 = 184.113g) MgBr2
18.3g would produce x
161.82 = 184.113
18.3 = x
x = (184.113 * 18.3 ) / 161.82 = 20.8 g
2. How many moles of H2O will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?
Converting the mass to mol;
Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 18.3 / 80.91 = 0.226 mol
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr produces 2 mol of H2O
0.226 mol would produce x
2 =2
0.226 = x
x = 0.226 * 2 / 2 = 0.226 mol
3. How many grams of Mg(OH)2 are needed to completely react with 18.3 grams of HBr?
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr reacts with 1 mol of Mg(OH)2
18.3g of HBr = 0.226 mol
2 = 1
0.226 = x
x = 0.226 * 1 /2
x = 0.113 mol
<span>In the Bohr model electrons in atoms can occupy allowed orbits where they do not emit energy. Exchange of energy with the surrounding environment occurs only when an electron "jumps" from an orbit to another. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
