Answer is: low reactivity.

Nitrogen (N) is in group 15 of Periodic table of elements and his atomic number is seven, which means that nitrogen has seven electrons and electron configuration: ₇N 1s²2s²2p³.

Nitrogen is inert (low reactivity) nonmetal and has five valence electrons. Nitrogen has oxidation numbers from -3 to +5.

Nitrogen molecule (N₂) has strong nonpolar triple covalent bond, that is why it is very stable and have low reactivity.

Answer:

monoxide

dioxide

trioxide

tetroxide

pentoxide

hexoxide

heptoxide

octoxide

nonoxide

Explanation:

Just the way it is. If there is an -a or -o infront of the oxide(or another substance that starts with vowel), the a is often dropped.

What volume (in milliliters) of oxygen gas is required to react with 4.03 g of Mg at STP?
BigorU [14]
Mg reaction with O₂ gas will produce MgO so the equation will be
2Mg+O₂⇒2MgO. (You have to find the equation in order two figure out the number of moles of O₂ that will react with 1 mole of MgO).

The first step is to find the number of moles of Mg in 4.03g of Mg.  You can do this by dividing 4.03g Mg by its molar mass (which is 24.3g/mol) to get 0.1658mol Mg.  Then you have to find the number of moles of O₂ that will react with 0.1658mol Mg.  To do this you need to use the fact that 1mol O₂ will react with 2mol Mg (this reatio is from the chemical equation) so you have to multiply 0.1658mol Mg by (1mol O₂)/(2mol Mg) to get 0.0829mol O₂.  From here you would usually use PV=nRT and solve for V However, the question tells us that we are at STP, that means you can use the fact that 22.4L of gas is 1 mol of gas at STP.  Using that information we can find the volume of O₂ gas by mulitlying 0.0829mol O₂ by 22.4L/mol to get 1.857L which equals 1857mL.
therefore, 1857mL of O₂ gas will react with 4.03g of Mg.

I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

What would happen to the water’s boiling point if MgSO4 is added to it?
kirill [66]

Answer:

When Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) dissolves, it separates into its ions: a magnesium ion (Mg2+) and a sulfate ion (SO4 2-), which results in hard water. When hard water and soap are mixed, the magnesium ion reacts with soap molecules and forms a solid material called a precipitate, which does not dissolve.

PLEASE HELP!!! NEED TO PASS THIS TO THE FIRST SEMESTER!
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Reaction 1 is balanced but 2 is not balanced , the balance equation are :

1. CH_{3}COOH(aq) + NaHCO_{3}(aq)\rightarrow CO_{2}(g) + H_{2}O(l) + CH_{3}COONa(aq)

2.CaCl_{2}(aq) + 2NaHCO_{3}(aq)\rightarrow CaCO_{3}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) + 2NaCl(aq) + H_{2}O(aq)

Explanation:

Balanced Equations : These are the equation which follows the law of conservation of mass .

The total number of atoms present in reactant is equal to total number of atoms present in product.

1. CH_{3}COOH(aq) + NaHCO_{3}(aq)\rightarrow CO_{2}(g) + H_{2}O(l) + CH_{3}COONa(aq)

This is acid - base type reaction where

CH_{3}COOH(aq) act as Acid

NaHCO_{3}(aq) act as weak base

Reactant :CH_{3}COOH(aq) ,NaHCO_{3}

Number of atoms of :

C = 2 (CH_{3}COOH(aq)) + 1 (NaHCO_{3})

   = 2 + 1

   = 3

H  = 4(CH_{3}COOH(aq)) + 1 (NaHCO_{3})

     = 4 + 1

       5

O = 2(CH_{3}COOH(aq)) + 3 (NaHCO_{3})

    = 5

Na = 1 (NaHCO_{3})

     = 1

Product :  CO_{2}(g),H_{2}O(l) , CH_{3}COONa(aq)

Number of atoms :

C = 1(CO_{2}(g)) + 2(CH_{3}COONa(aq))

   = 1 + 2

   = 3

H = 2(H_{2}O(l)) + 3(CH_{3}COONa(aq))

   = 2 + 3

   = 5

O = 1(H_{2}O(l)) + 2(CH_{3}COONa(aq))

        +2(CO_{2}(g)

    = 1 + 2 + 2

    = 5

Na = 1(CH_{3}COONa(aq)

     = 1

Number of Na =1 , C = 3 , H= 5 and O =5 in both reactant and product , so it is a balanced reaction

2.CaCl_{2}(aq) + 2NaHCO_{3}(aq)\rightarrow CaCO_{3}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) + 2NaCl(aq) + CO_{2}(g)

This is double displacement reaction .

Check the balancing in both reactant and products should be :

Na = 2

H = 2

Ca = 1

C = 2

O = 6

Cl = 2
