The equation is
Mg + 2HCl -> MgCl2 +H2

Mg (s)       +    HCl (aq)    →  MgCl₂(s)   + H₂(g)

Looking at the equation :

We have 1 Mg at the left hand side and 1 Mg as well on the right hand side.
So that is balanced. 

We have 1 H at the left hand side and 2 H on the right hand side.
So that is not balanced.  Same for Chlorine. Cl.

We add 2 to the HCl on the left hand side and that balances it.

Mg(s)       +    2HCl(aq)    →  MgCl₂(s)  + H₂(g)

Which 20.0 g sample of metal is most likely to undergo the smallest change in temperature upon absorption of 100.0 J of heat?
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

b. aluminum

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1g of a material in 1°C.

Thus, the sample with the higher specific heat capacity is the sample that will require more energy to increase its temperature in 1°C, suffering the smallest change in temperature.

Thus, is the aluminium with 0.900J/gK the element that is most likely to undergo the smallest change in temperature:

A certain metal M forms a soluble sulfate salt M2SO4. Suppose the left half cell of a galvanic cell apparatus is filled with a 5
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Right

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The soluble sulfate formed by the metal, M = M₂SO₄

In the galvanic cell formed by the metal M, we have;

The concentration of M₂SO₄ in the left half cell = 50.0 mM = 0.05 M

The concentration of M₂SO₄ in the right half cell = 5.00 M

In the galvanic cell, the metal 'M' will be dissolved into the solution with lower concentration as M²⁺ which is the left half cell, making the cell negative and the solution more concentrated

In the right half cell, the metal 'M²⁺' in the solution will be plated unto the electrode making the solution less concentrated and the electrode in the right half cell will be the positive electrode

Therefore;

The electrode which will be positive is the electrode in the right half cell.
