Reactant concentration, the physical state of the reactants, and surface area, temperature, and the presence of a catalyst are the four main factors that affect reaction rate.
The compound MgCl2(aq) is ionic which will have the releasing of 2 Cl⁻ ions ions in water for every molecule of MgCl2 that dissolves.
MgCl2(s) --> Mg+(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
[Cl⁻] = 0.87 mol MgCl2/1L × 2 mol Cl⁻ / 1 mol MgCl2 = 1.7 M
The answer to this question is [Cl⁻] = 1.7 M
The chemical breakdown of enormous quantities of organic material buried in the sedimentary rocks has produced ethane gas.
Answer:
D. 44.2 g O₂
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Gas Laws</u>
- STP (Standard Conditions for Temperature and Pressure) = 22.4 L per mole at <em>1 atm, 273 K</em>
<u>Stoichiometry</u>
- Dimensional Analysis
- Mole Ratio
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify given.</em>
61.9 L O₂ at STP
<u>Step 2: Convert</u>
We know that the oxygen gas is at STP. Therefore, we can set up and solve for how many <em>moles</em> of O₂ is present:

Recall the Periodic Table (Refer to attachments). Oxygen's atomic mass is roughly 16.00 grams per mole (g/mol). We can use a mole ratio to convert from <em>moles</em> to <em>grams</em>:

Now we deal with sig figs. From the original problem, we are given 3 significant figures. Round your answer to the <u>exact</u> same number of sig figs:

∴ our answer is letter choice D.
