Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

There are several ways to read your equation.

2Mg + O₂ ⟶ 2MgO

  1. Magnesium reacts with oxygen to form magnesium oxide
  2. Two atoms of magnesium react with one molecule of oxygen to form one formula unit of magnesium oxide.
  3. Two moles of magnesium react with one mole of oxygen to form one mole of magnesium oxide.

8. What is the heat of reaction when hydrogen and oxygen combine to form water?
valina [46]

Answer:

The heat of reaction when hydrogen and oxygen combine to form water is :

<u>C. 571.6 kJ</u>

Explanation:

Enthalpy Change = The enthalpy change for the formation of 1 mole of the substance from their standard state is called the enthalpy of formation.

This is intensive quantity as it is fixed for 1 mole .

Intensive properties = Those properties which are independent on the amount of the substance are intensive properties.

The value of these quantities does not get halve if you divide the substance into two equal parts. example , density, refractive index.

However , the enthalpy of reaction is extensive. Because on increasing the amount the value of the enthalpy also get doubles

Hence for this reaction :

2H_{2}(g)+O_{2}\rightarrow 2H_{2}(l)

Its value is -285.8 kJ for 1 mole

And here two moles are present . so the value of molar enthalpy is:

-285.8 x 2 = -571.6 kJ

40o+2 protons electrons And neurons
KatRina [158]

Answer: There are few simple rules to follow.

(1) The atomic number is equal to the number of protons.

Z

= number of protons

(2) In neutrally charged elements, the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.  

Z

= number of protons = number of electrons (no charge)

Otherwise, positive charge means that the element lost an electron and negative charge means it gained an electron.

(3) The atomic mass is equal to the sum of the number of protons and number of neutrons.

A

= number of protons + number neutrons  

or

A

=  

Z

+ number neutrons

So if you say that  

Z

= 20 and  

A

= 40, then

A

=  

Z

+ number neutrons

40 = 20 + number of neutrons

40 - 20 = number of neutrons

Therefore,

number of neutrons = 20

Which of the following statements are true? Significant figures in a measurement are all measured digits, and one estimated digi
Georgia [21]

Answer: Significant figures in a measurement are all measured digits, and one estimated digit

Significant figures communicate the level of precision in measurements Significant figures are an indicator of the certainty in measurements.

Explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value or the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy or precision is known as significant digits.

The significant figures of a measured quantity are defined as all the digits known with certainty and the first uncertain or estimated digit.

Rules for significant figures:

1. Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.

2. All non-zero numbers are always significant.

3. All zero’s between integers are always significant.

4. All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant.

5. All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant.
