6 0

Answer: 6.1 g

Explanation:

between Mg and MgO theres a 1;1 MOLE RATIO

here's the balanced equation

2Mg + O2 ==> 2MgO

24g of magnesium is approximately 1 mole of magnesium so it produces 40 g of mgo which is also 1 mole of mgo thus 10/40 =0.25 moles of MgO so 0.25 moles of magnesium would be needed  which is approximately 6.1 g

How many grams of hydrogen are needed to produce 1.80g of water according to this equation?
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

0.2g of hydrogen is needed to produce 1.80g of water

Explanation:

$H_{2}+O_{2} \to 2H_{2}O$

No. of moles of water$= \frac{Weight}{Molecular \, weight}$ \\

From given values,

Weight of water $=1.80g$

Molecular weight of water $=18g$

$\therefore$ No. of moles of water$=\frac{1.80}{18}=0.1 $

From equation, it is clear that 2 moles of water can be formed by 2 moles of $H_{2}$

Hence, 0.1 mole of water can be formed from 0.1 mole of $H_{2}$

Now,

No. of moles of $H_{2} = \frac{Weight}{Molecular \, weight}$

$\Rightarrow weight \,of\, H_{2}=No.\,of\,moles \times Molecular\,weight$\\ $=0.1 \times 2=0.2g$

Which forces are intramolecular and which intermolecular?
xxTIMURxx [149]

On a chilly, humid evening, intermolecular forces enable fog to form. The gaseous water molecules condense as a result of powerful molecular interactions.

What force allows fog formation?

From the south, warm, moist air is brought in, and if there is snow or cool precipitation on the ground, it will come into touch with the warm, moist breezes. The air coming in will cool as a result of this air-ground contact. Dew point rises at that position, leading to high humidity and the formation of fog.

What is molecular interactions?

Interactions between molecules or between atoms without bonds are referred to as molecular interactions. There are three types of molecular interactions: cohesive (attraction between like), adhesive (attraction between unlike), and repulsive forces.
