pashok25 [27]3 years ago
4 0
The electronic structure of Magnesium is 2,8,2
so in order to form a stable ions, it will lose 2 electrons.
Now, the proton number of Mg is 12, electron number is 10.
It will show positive charge.
Conclusion: Mg will lose 2 electrons to form Mg2+.

The equilibrium constant for the reaction of carbon monoxide with water is 1.845. if 1.00 mol of each reactant is placed in a 2.
SpyIntel [72]
[CO] = 1 mol / 2L = 0.5 M

According to the equation:

and by using the ICE table:

             CO(g) + H2O(g) ↔   CO2(g) + H2(g)

initial     0.5            0.5                    0          0

change  -X              -X                   +X         +X
     
Equ       (0.5-X)       (0.5-X)                     X            X

when Kc = X^2 * (0.5-X)^2

by substitution:

1.845 = X^2 * (0.5-X)^2  by solving for X 

∴X = 0.26

∴ [CO2] = X = 0.26

Calculate the energy required to heat 406.0mg of cyclohexane from 33.5°C to 38.9°C . Assume the specific heat capacity of cycloh
N76 [4]

Answer:

Q = 4.056 J

Explanation:

  • Q = m<em>C</em>ΔT

∴ m = 406.0 mg = 0.406 g

∴ <em>C </em>= 1.85 J/g.K

∴ T1 = 33.5°C ≅ 306.5 K

∴ T2 = 38.9°C = 311.9 K

⇒ ΔT = 311.9 - 306.5 = 5.4 K

⇒ Q = (0.406 g)(1.85 J/gK)(5.4 K)

⇒ Q = 4.056 J

If 15 g of C₂H₆ reacts with 60.0 g of O₂, how many moles of water (H₂O) will be produced?
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

n_{H_2O}=1.5molH_2O

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

2C_2H_6 + 7O_2 \rightarrow 4CO_2 + 6H_2O

Next, we identify the limiting reactant by computing the available moles of ethane and the moles of ethane consumed by 60.0 grams of oxygen:

n_{C_2H_6}^{available}=15g*\frac{1mol}{30g} =0.50molC_2H_6\\n_{C_2H_6}^{reacted}=60.0gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32gO_2}*\frac{2molC_2H_6}{7molO_2} =0.536molC_2H_6

Thus, we notice there are less available moles, for that reason, the ethane is the limiting reactant. Finally, we can compute the produced moles of water by:

n_{H_2O}=0.50molC_2H_6*\frac{6molH_2O}{2molC_2H_6}\\\\n_{H_2O}=1.5molH_2O

Best regards.
