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 hydrogen atoms are in a cycloalkane with 8 carbon atoms?
frosja888 [35]
Cycloalkanes are those saturated organic compounds which exist in the form of Rings. Their Hydrogen Deficiency Index in one. The General formula for cycloalkanes is,
                                                  CnH2n
When number of Carbons = 8
Then
                                                  C₈H₂₍₈₎

                                                  C₈H₁₆

Result:

In the equation CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2 What is the mass of CO2 produced when 35g of O2 reacts?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

24.06 g of CO₂

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> 2H₂O + CO₂

Next, we shall determine the mass of O₂ that reacted and the mass of CO₂ produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ from the balanced equation = 2 × 32 = 64 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (2×16)

= 12 + 32

= 44 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 44 = 44 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO₂ produced by the reaction of 35 g of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Therefore, 35 g of O₂ will react to produce = (35 × 44)/64 = 24.06 g of CO₂.

Thus, 24.06 g of CO₂ were produced from the reaction.

Part A:
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Part A = The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams

Part B = The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

Explanation:

Part A

Step 1: Data given

A mixture of carbon and sulfur has a mass of 9.0 g

Mass of the product = 27.1 grams

X = mass carbon

Y = mass sulfur

x + y = 9.0  grams

x = 9.0 - y

x(molar mass CO2/atomic mass C) + y(molar mass SO2/atomic mass S) = 22.6

(9 - y)*(44.01/12.01) + y(64.07/32.07)

(9-y)(3.664) + y(1.998)

32.976 - 3.664y + 1.998y = 22.6

-1.666y = -10.376

y = 6.228 = mass sulfur

x = 9.0 - 6.228 = 2.772 grams = mass C

The mass of sulfur is 6.228 grams

Part B

Calculate the mass, in grams, of a single silver atom (mAg = 107.87 amu ).

Calculate moles of 1 silver atom

Moles = 1/ 6.022*10^23

Moles = 1.66*10^-24 moles

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass = 1.66*10 ^-24 moles *107.87

Mass = 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

The mass of 1 silver atom is 1.79 * 10^-22 grams

Human blood typically contains 1.04 kg/L of platelets. A 1.89 pints of blood would contain what mass (in grams) of platelets
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The correct answer is 930 grams platelets.

Explanation:

The volume of blood given is 1.89 pints. Total number of gallons in 1.89 pints is,  

= 1.89/8 = 0.236 gallon

1 gallon comprise = 3.785 L

So, 0.236 gallon comprise = 0.236 * 3.785 L = 0.89 L

As mentioned that 1 Liter of blood comprise 1.04 kilograms of platelets. Therefore, 0.89 L of blood will contain = 1.04 * 0.89 = 0.93 Kg platelets

1 Kg contain 1000 grams. So, number of platelets in grams will be,  

= 1000 * 0.93 = 930 grams platelets.
