C
atoms, I have (approximately!) 12 grams.
The mole is thus the link between the micro world of atoms and molecules, and the macro world of grams and litres, the which we can easily measure by mass or volume. The masses for a mole of each element are given on the periodic table as the atomic weight. So, if have 12 g of
C
, I know, fairly precisely, how many atoms of carbon I have. Given this quantity, I know how many molecules of
O

are required to react
Answer:
3 Mg, 2 P, 14 O, 12 H
Explanation:
Without mincing words, let us dive straight into the solution for the problem above. This question is all about how how equations showing chemical reactions are being balanced.
From the question, we are giving the reactants: which are Mg(OH)2 and H3PO4 and in order to balance the reaction, the number of atoms in the reactants must be equal to the number of atoms in the products side of the reaction. Since, we have 3 Magnesium atoms, 2 Phosphorus atoms, 14 Oxygen atoms, and 12 Hydrogen atoms in the reactants side of the equation, the same number of atoms is expected in the products side.
Answer:
a. equal to
Explanation:
The <em>osmotic pressure</em> is calculated by the formula:
π = <em>i</em> * M * R * T
Where π is the osmotic pressure, M is the concentration, R is a constant, T is temperature and <em>i</em> is the van't Hoff's factor (the number of ions a compound forms when dissolved in water,<u> for both NaCl and KBr is 2</u>).
Because R is always the same, and <u>Temperature and Concentration are equal between the two solutions</u>, the osmotic pressure of both solutions are also equal.
