The particular reaction that represents the oxidation of Mg metal would be the following:

Mg => Mg+2 + 2e-

This is the half reaction of the oxidation of the magnesium metal, another charged species would need to receive it to become reduced or gain the 2 electrons lost.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

2,669.58 grams of water will be produced by metabolism of 2.4 kilogram of fat.

Explanation:

2C_{57}H_{110}O_6+163O_2\rightarrow 114CO_2+110H_2O

Mass of fat = 2.4 kg = 2.4 × 1000 g = 2400 g

1 kg = 1000 g

Molar mass of fat = M

M = 57 × 12 g/mol + 110 × 1 g/mol+ 6 × 16 g/mol = 890 g/mol[/tex]

Moles of fat = \frac{2400 g}{890 g/mol}=2.6966 mol

According to reaction , 2 moles of fat gives 110 moles of water. Then 2.6966 moles of fat will give  ;

\frac{110}{2}\times 2.6966 mol=148.31 mol of water

Mass of 148.31 moles of water ;

148.31 mol × 18 g/mol = 2,669.58 g

2,669.58 grams of water will be produced by metabolism of 2.4 kilogram of fat.

The Earth rotates about its axis from west to east. What piece of evidence about the Moon can we use to support this statement?
Debora [2.8K]
The Earth's rotation has no relation to the phases of the moon.
Like everything else in the sky, the moon rises in the east just like the stars, planets, and the sun.

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Matter can change form through physical and chemical changes, but through any of these changes, matter is conserved. The same amount of matter exists before and after the change none is created or destroyed.

The formula of nitrobenzene is c6h5no2. the molecular weight of this compound is __________ amu.
mafiozo [28]

The molecular weight of a given compound would simply the sum of the molar weights of each component.

 

The molar masses of the elements are:

C = 12 amu

H = 1 amu

N = 14 amu

O = 16 amu

where 1 amu = 1 g / mol

 

Since there are 6 C, 5 H, 1 N and 2 O, therefore the total molecular weight is:

molecular weight = 6 (12 amu) + 5 (1 amu) + 1 (14 amu) + 2 (16 amu)

molecular weight = 123 amu

 

Therefore the molecular weight of nitrobenzene is 123 amu or which is exactly equivalent to 123 g / mol.
