It would be solid because you said it dissolves...Hope this helped :)
The answer will be 3 moles
Weathering is the process of breaking large rocks and boulders into much smaller ones. Weathering can be brought about by wind and water mostly. Sometimes even biological forces account for some types of weathering.
5.00 moles of a binary, group 2 oxide are found to have a mass of 521 g. The group 2 metal is Strontium.
According to question 5 moles of binary group 2 metal oxide mass =521 g
So, 1-mole metal oxide mass will be =521 / 5=104.2 g
Now, as metal oxide is group 2 oxide so metal: oxygen =1: 1
So the mass of metal is =104.2-16=88.2 gm (as the atomic mass of oxygen is 16 g
Therefore, the metal is Strontium(Sr) whose atomic mass is 87.62 g which is nearly 88.2 gm
So, the formula of metal oxide is SrO
The group two metal here is Sr which is strontium and lies in the same group as calcium.
