What is the difference between magnesium powder and magnesium ribbon

Chemistry

<span>The powder form has a much larger surface area per unit weight of magnesium than the ribbon form ,so while the ribbon will react rapidly with the acid, the powdered form will be nearly explosive and dangerous in that a great amount of hydrogen gas and heat will be formed in a fraction of a second. 
hope this helps :)</span>

The magnesium powder has a larger surface area than the ribbon so when it reacts with substances like sulphuric acid, it creates a much more explosive and dangerous reaction, whilst the ribbon still reacts very quickly but is less explosive.
Hope this helps :)

5. What is the volume of 10 moles of a gas at 300 K held at a pressure of 3.5 atm?
Helga [31]

70.33 L  is the volume of 10 moles of a gas at 300 K held at a pressure of 3.5 atm.

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

Volume is the percentage of a liquid, solid, or gas's three-dimensional space that it occupies.

Liters, cubic metres, gallons, millilitres, teaspoons, and ounces are some of the more popular units used to express volume, though there are many others.

We will use ideal gas law to find the volume

PV = nRT

Can also be written as

V = (nRT)/P

Where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = amount of substance

R = ideal gas constant

T = temperature

Here, we have given

P = 3.5 atm

V = to find

n = 10 moles

R = 0.08206 L⋅atm/K⋅mol

T = 300k

Lets substitute the values

V = (10 × 0.08206 × 300)/3.5

V =  70.33 L
