The reaction for the formation of MgO(s):

2 Mg (s) + O2(g) -à 2MgO(s)                     ΔH = -601.24 kJ/mol

<span>The enthalpy information is taken from: http://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/inchi?ID=C1309484&Mask=2</span>

From the equation and with an enthalpy change of -231 kJ:

-231 kJ * 2 mol Mg * (1/-601.24 kJ/mol) = 0.76841 mol Mg

Then, with the molar mass of MgO = 40.3,

0.76841 mol Mg *(2 mol MgO/2 mol Mg)* 40.3 g/mol MgO = <span>30.967 g MgO</span>

A compound is formed when 12.2 g Mg combines completely with 5.16 g N. What is the percent composition of this compound? Please
STALIN [3.7K]
3Mg + N₂= Mg₃N₂
n(Mg)=12,2g÷<span>24,4g/mol=0,5mol-limiting reagent
</span>n(N₂)=5,16g÷28g/mol=0,18mol
n(Mg₃N₂):n(Mg)=1:3, n(Mg₃N₂)=0,166mol, m(Mg₃N₂)=0,166·101,2=16,8g.
%(N)= 2·Ar(N)÷Mr(Mg₃N₂) = 2·14÷101,2=27,66%=0,2766
%(Mg) = 3·Ar(Mg)÷Mr(Mg₃N₂)= 3·24,4÷101,2=72,34% or 100% - 27,66%= 72,34%.

Give three examples of energy being changed to other forms.
dimaraw [331]
Solar: rays from the sun shine on solar pannels creating energy which is a renewable energy.
Water: water stored at a dam flows through turbines creating energy which is a renewable energy
Fossil fuels: fossil fuels are extracted from the ground the burned to create energy and this is a nonrenewable resource.
Hope this helps :)
