<h3>Answer:</h3>

43.27 g Mg

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The balanced equation for the reaction between magnesium metal and hydrochloric acid is;

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) → MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)

From the equation;

1 mole of magnesium reacts with 2 moles of HCl

We are given;

3.56 moles of Mg and 3.56 moles of HCl

Using the mole ratio;

3.56 moles of Mg would react with 7.12 moles of HCl, and

3.56 moles of HCl would react with 1.78 moles of Mg

Therefore;

The amount of magnesium was in excess;

Moles of Mg left = 3.56 moles - 1.78 moles

                         = 1.78 moles

But; 1 mole of Mg = 24.305 g/mol

Therefore;

Mass of magnesium left = 1.78 moles × 24.305 g/mol

                                        = 43.2629 g

                                        = 43.27 g

Thus, the mass of magnesium that remained after the reaction is 43.27 g

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Bohr thought that electrons orbited the nucleus in circular paths; whereas in the modern view atomic electron structure is more like 3D standing waves. Bohr built upon Rutherford's model of the atom. ... He believed that electrons moved around the nucleus in circular orbits with quantised potential and kinetic energies.

He improved and followed from the works of Luigi Galvani, which used a 'frog galvanoscope' as a prototype of measuring current. He recognized that a compass could actually measure current, given that it is placed near coil of wire.
