Magnesium element exists as single atoms. Free oxygen is always diatomic (two atoms bonded together) as O2. Nitrogen gas is also diatomic N2.

2Mg + O2 → MgO

Mg forms a +2 ion, O forms a -2 ion, so they combine and balance in a 1:1 ratio. MgO, magnesium oxide, is a solid. 
3Mg + N2→Mg3N2

Mg forms a +2 ion, but N forms a -3 ion. Hence the Mg3N2 configuration for magnesium nitride.

The whole cloves are broken up to help release the eugenol during distillation.
GREYUIT [131]

The statement is False.

No, whole cloves are not broken up to help release the eugenol during distillation.

Steam distillation:

  • Live steam is used in the co-distillation technique of steam distillation to separate mixture components.
  • It works well to extract essential oil constituents with high boiling points, such as those with boiling points of 200°C. However, the oil vapors themselves are warmer—around 100°C—helping to maintain the compounds' structural integrity.
  • It enables distillation to be carried out at lower temperatures than the boiling points of the constituent parts.
  • The high-boiling essential oils are vaporized by steam, and after passing through a cooling system, the hot vapors that were formed from them condense back into a liquid along with water.
  • A two-phase distillate, consisting of a water layer and an oil layer, is created because the oils are immiscible in water.

Convert 59,800 cg/L to g/mL
alexgriva [62]
To convert the given value to the desired one, use the proper unit conversions and dimensional analysis. Use the following conversion for the first set.

    1 g = 100 cg
    1 L = 1000 mL

Using the concept presented above,
         
            V = (59800 cg/L)(1 g/100 cg)1 L/1000 mL)
            V = 0.598 g/mL

Compare the mass of the Mg ribbon with the mass of the magnesium oxide. Notice that the the mass of the magnesium oxide is great
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Magnesium oxide is a binary compound of magnesium and oxygen while magnesium ribbon consists only of magnesium atoms.

Explanation:

The burning of magnesium in oxygen is a chemical change. It produces magnesium oxide having greater mass than magnesium ribbon. The greater mass results from the fact that the chemical reaction has added another element to the sample- oxygen. The mass of magnesium ribbon is the mass of magnesium atoms alone but in magnesium oxide, we consider the masses of magnesium and oxygen atoms making magnesium oxide heavier than magnesium ribbon.

How do I know the point which a solid will turn to a liquid?
oee [108]

There is a special temperature for every substance called the melting point. When a solid reaches the temperature of its melting point, it can become a liquid.
