Answer:

New experimental methods

Technological inventions

Explanation:

A scientific theory is usually not based on speculation. Scientific theories must have a solid empirical basis.

However, experimental methods are limited to the caliber of equipments available at the time in which a theory is formulated. With advancing years, more technological sophistication leads to the invention of new instruments and ultimately, the development of new experimental methods.

These innovations are likely to alter existing scientific theories as new evidences emerge, hence the answer.

Why do atoms of nonmetals form anions? Support your answer with an example.
Papessa [141]
Nonmetals form negatively charged ions, or anions. They do this because they need to gain one to three electrons in order to achieve an octet of valence electrons, making them isoelectronic with the noble gas at the end of the period to which they belong.

How is enthalpy related to the spontaneity of a reaction?
mina [271]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Gibb's free energy change(∆G) and Standard electrode potential of electrochemical (Ecell) determine the spontaneity of a reaction.

when ∆G > 0, the reaction is not spontaneous

∆G < 0, the reaction is spontaneous

∆G = 0, the reaction is in equilibrium

when Ecell > 0, the redox reaction is spontaneous

Ecell < 0, the redox reaction is not spontaneous

Ecell = 0, the redox reaction is in equilibrium.

Element X has two isotopes. If 72.0% of the element has an isotope mass of 84.9 atomic mass units, and 28.0% of the element has
bija089 [108]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Average atomic mass of an element is the sum of the masses of its isotopes each multiplied by its natural abundance

\footnotesize \longrightarrow \:  \rm Average \:  atomic  \: mass =  \dfrac{ \sum\limits \: \% age \: of \: each \: isotope \times Atomic  \: mass }{100} \\

\footnotesize \longrightarrow \:  \rm Average \:  atomic  \: mass =  \dfrac{ 72 \times84.9 + 28 \times 87  }{100} \\

\footnotesize \longrightarrow \:  \rm Average \:  atomic  \: mass =  \dfrac{ 6112.8 + 2436  }{100} \\

\footnotesize \longrightarrow \:  \rm Average \:  atomic  \: mass =  \dfrac{ 8548.8  }{100} \\

\footnotesize \longrightarrow \:  \bf Average \:  atomic  \: mass =  85.488 \: amu  \\

4. Magnesium and oxygen undergo a chemical reaction to
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

About 16.1 grams of oxygen gas.

Explanation:

The reaction between magnesium and oxygen can be described by the equation:
\displaystyle 2\text{Mg} + \text{O$_2$} \longrightarrow 2\text{MgO}

24.4 grams of Mg reacted with O₂ to produce 40.5 grams of MgO. We want to determine the mass of O₂ in the chemical change.

Compute using stoichiometry. From the equation, we know that two moles of MgO is produced from every one mole of O₂. Therefore, we can:

  1. Convert grams of MgO to moles of MgO.
  2. Moles of MgO to moles of O₂
  3. And moles of O₂ to grams of O₂.

The molecular weights of MgO and O₂ are 40.31 g/mol and 32.00 g/mol, respectively.

Dimensional analysis:

\displaystyle 40.5\text{ g MgO} \cdot \frac{1\text{ mol MgO}}{40.31\text{ g MgO}} \cdot \frac{1\text{ mol O$_2$}}{2\text{ mol MgO}} \cdot \frac{32.00\text{ g O$_2$}}{1\text{ mol O$_2$}} = 16.1\text{ g O$_2$}

In conclusion, about 16.1 grams of oxygen gas was reacted.

You will obtain the same result if you compute with the 24.4 grams of Mg instead:

\displaystyle 24.4\text{ g Mg}\cdot \frac{1\text{ mol Mg}}{24.31\text{ g Mg}} \cdot \frac{1\text{ mol O$_2$}}{1\text{ mol Mg}} \cdot \frac{32.00\text{ g O$_2$}}{1\text{ mol O$_2$}} = 16.1\text{ g O$_2$}
