<span>All matter contain heat energy, and it can be seen anywhere as long as it contains mass and occupies space. Heat energy is another form energy that transfers particles in a substance through kinetic energy. One way to transfer heat from one object to the other is through the difference in temperature between two objects.</span>
The answer is 60.3% magnesium, 39.7% oxygen.
Solution:
The chemical equation for the reaction is 2 Mg + O2 → 2 MgO.
Since magnesium reacts completely with oxygen, it is the limiting reactant in the reaction. Hence, we can use the number of moles of magnesium to get the mass of MgO produced:
moles of magnesium = 14.7g / 24.305g mol-1
= 0.6048 mol
mass of MgO = 0.6048mol Mg(2 mol MgO/2mol Mg)(40.3044g MgO/1 mol MgO)
= 24.376g MgO
We can now solve for the percentage of magnesium:
% Mg = (14.7g Mg / 24.376g MgO)*100% = 60.3%
We also use the number of moles of magnesium to get the mass of oxygen consumed in the reaction:
mass of O2 = 0.6048 mol Mg (1mol O2 / 2mol Mg) (31.998g / 1mol O2)
= 9.676g
The percentage of oxygen is therefore
% O2 = (9.676g O2 / 24.376g MgO)*100%
= 39.7%
Notice that we can just subtract the magnesium's percentage from 100% to get
% O2 = 100% - 60.3% = 39.7%
Only when there is no product that is when a chemical reaction has not occured
