The suggestion is to prevent a puddle of the liquid present in the sample from forming or from it leaking on to the surface on which it is placed. For example, if precipitates of a solid are removed from water and then placed on filter paper to dry, the water will soak into the filter paper and then leak on to the counter on which it is placed. If this precipitate were placed in a watch glass or weighing paper, the water would only evaporate and would not contaminate the sample.

It is necessary to have a 40% antifreeze solution in the radiator of a certain car. the radiator now has 70 liters of 20% soluti
Akimi4 [234]
The answer is : 17.5 liters drained and replaced by 17.5 liters of 100% solution. 
x = amount drained and replaced
(70-x) = remaining amount of 20% solution
<span>.20(70-x) + 1.00(x) = .40(70)
14 - .2x + 1x = 28
1x - .2x = 28 - 14
</span><span>.8x = 14
</span><span>x = 14/.8
x= 17,5 ( 17.5 liters drained and replaced by 17.5 liters of 100% solution)

Two moles of magnesium (Mg) and five moles of oxygen (O2) are placed in a reaction vessel. When magnesium is ignited, it reacts
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Two moles of magnesium (Mg) and five moles of oxygen (O2) are placed in a reaction vessel. When magnesium is ignited, it reacts with oxygen. What is the limiting reactant in this experiment?

Mg + O2 → MgO (unbalanced)

first, balance the equation

2Mg +O2-------> 2MgO

two magnesium atoms react with one diatomic oxygen molecule

there is a 1:1 ratio of magnesium to oxygen atoms

but we have 2 moles of magnesium atoms and 2X5 = 10 moles of oxygen atoms

the lesser magnesium LIMITS the amount of product we can make, so it is the LIMITING REAGENT.

xenn [34]

Answer:Macaya (floruit 1802), was a Kongolese-born Haitian revolutionary military leader. Macaya was one of the first black rebel leaders in Saint-Domingue to ally himself with the French Republican commissioners Sonthonax and Polverel. He helped to lead forces that recaptured Cap-Français on behalf of the French Republicans.

Macaya was born in west-central Africa, probably in the Kingdom of Kongo, and taken to the French colony of Saint-Domingue as a slave. After the outbreak of the 1791 slave rebellion in northern Saint-Domingue, Macaya became a lieutenant of an elderly rebel commander named Pierrot. Pierrot's rebel forces were based in the hills outside of Le Cap (Cap Francaise), near Bréda plantation by 1793.
