Answer:
The empirical formula for C12 H24 O6 is C2 H4 O.
Since the number of moles of a substance is the mass divided by the molar mass of the substance, we can just simply multiply the molar mass of magnesium chloride by the number of moles, which is 4.40 in this case.
To find the molar mass, refer to the periodic table for the relative atomic mass of Mg and Cl and add them together. Since there’s 2 chloride ions in MgCl2, double the relative atomic mass of Cl when adding.
24.31 + 35.45x2
=95.21
Now just multiply 95.21 to 4.40mol, which you’ll get 418.9g (corrected to 3 significant figures)
Answer:
All alkali and alkaline earth metals dissolves in water to form alkaline solutions.
Explanation:
The alkali metals are found in group one of the periodic table while the alkaline earth metals are found in group 2. These two groups of elements are quite reactive and they react very well with air and water. All the elements in the two groups react with water to give rise to alkaline solutions; solutions whose pH range from 8 to 14.
