The acceleration is defined by force divided by the mass of the object. So, When the smaller object is hit by a small force, it can produce equal acceleration which is same as that of the bigger body hit with large force.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Force is defined as the product of the mass of the body its applied to and the acceleration of the body in the direction of the force. So acceleration is force divided by the mass of the body.

Let the mass of the smaller body be m and that of the larger body be M.

The smaller force applied on the smaller body be f and the larger force applied on the larger body be F.

So acceleration of the larger body = F/M.

Acceleration of the smaller body = f/m.

For the accelerations to be same,

F/M = f/m.

Or F/f = M/m.

So when the ratio of the force applied on two bodies is in ratio of their masses, the acceleration becomes equal.

If a sample of magnesium with a mass of 35.0 grams reacts with 35.0 grams of oxygen how much magnesium oxide will be produced?​
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

58.0 g of MgO

Explanation:

in a perfect world, 70 g, however we don't live in a perfect world

The equation of reaction

2Mg + O₂ --> 2MgO

first find which element is limiting:

35 g x 1 mol/24.3 g of Mg x 2 mol of MgO/ 2 mole of Mg = 1.44 moles of MgO

35 g x 1 mol/32g of Mg x 2 mol of MgO/ 1 mole of O₂ = 2.1875 moles of MgO

This means Mg is the limiting factor, so you will be using this moles to find grams of MgO

1.44 mols of MgO x 40.3 g of MgO/ 1 mol = 58.0 g of MgO
