Answer:

B. Both electrons of Mg should be transferred to one O.

Explanation:

Metals react by loosing electrons while non metals react by gaining electrons.

Reactions occur as each element strives to attain an octet electron configuration in the outer energy level.

It is easier for magnesium to loose 2 electrons than to gain six because loosing the two requires less energy.

Oxygen on the other hand reacts by gaining the two electrons lost by magnesium since it is easier to gain the two than to loose the six. Gaining the two electrons for oxygen requires less energy than loosing the six.

In summary, magnesium looses two electrons that are transferred to oxygen.

How many moles of potassium hydroxide are needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminum sulfate
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:- Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles


Solution:- The given balanced equation is:


Al_2(SO_4)_3+6KOH\rightarrow 2Al(OH)_3+3K_2SO_4


We are asked to calculate the moles of potassium hydroxide needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.


From the balanced equation, there is 1:6 mol ratio between aluminium sulfate and potassium hydroxide.


It is a simple mole to mole conversion problem. We solve it using dimensional set up as:


2.94molAl_2(SO_4)_3(\frac{6molKOH}{1molAl_2(SO_4)_3})


= 17.6 mol KOH


So, Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles of potassium hydroxide are required to react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.

What is the cell potential of an electrochemical cell that has the half-reactions shown below?
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

E°(Ag⁺/Fe°) = 0.836 volt

Explanation:

3Ag⁺ + 3e⁻ => Ag°;            E° = +0.800 volt

Fe° => Fe⁺³ + 3e⁻ ;             E° = -0.036 volt

_________________________________

Fe°(s) + 3Ag⁺(aq) => Fe⁺³(aq) + 3Ag°(s) ...    

E°(Ag⁺/Fe°) = E°(Ag⁺) - E°(Fe°) = 0.800v - ( -0.036v) = 0.836 volt
