Answer:
39.7 %
Explanation:
magnesium + oxygen ⟶ magnesium oxide
10.57 g 6.96 g 17.53 g
According to the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em>, the mass of the product must equal the total mass of the reactants.
Mass of MgO = 10.57 + 6.96
Mass of MgO = 17.53 g
The formula for mass percent is
% by mass = Mass of component/Total mass × 100 %
In this case,
% O = mass of O/mass of MgO × 100 %
Mass of O = 6.96 g
Mass of MgO = 17.53 g
% O = 6.96/17.53 × 100
% O = 0.3970 × 100
% O = 39.7 %
Answer:
V = 80.65L
Explanation:
Volume = ?
Number of moles n = 5 mol
Temperature (T) = 393.15K
Pressure = 1520mmHg
Ideal gas constant (R) = 62.363mmHg.L/mol.K
According to ideal gas law,
PV = nRT
P = pressure of the ideal gas
V = volume the gas occupies
n = number of moles of the gas
R = ideal gas constant (note this can varies depending on the unit of your variables)
T = temperature of the ideal gas
PV = nRT
Solve for V,
V = nRT / P
V = (5 * 62.363 * 393.15) / 1520
V = 80.65L
The volume the gas occupies is 80.65L
