Answer:

We will expect 4 moles of MgO to be formed (option b).

Explanation:

Step 1: The balanced equation

2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

Step 2: Data given

Number of moles of Magnesium = 4 moles

Oxygen = in excess  → this means Magnesium is the limiting reactant

Magnesium will completely be consumed ( 4 moles). There will remain 0 moles.

For 2 moles of magnesium consumed, we need 1 mole of oxygen to produce 2 moles of MgO.

For 4 moles of magnesium, we need 4/2 = 2 moles of oxygen.

For 4  moles of magnesium, we will produce 4/1 = 4 moles of MgO

We will expect 4 moles of MgO to be formed (option b).

Answer:

x=2.8moles

Explanation:

first step balance the chemical equation

C2H6+O2-->CO2+2H2O

use more ratio to find the moles of water

1mole of C2H6= 2 moles of H2O

1.4mole of C2H6=?x

cross multiply

x=2.8 moles of H2O

Which one of the following compounds utilizes both ionic and covalent bonding?A) C6H12O6.B) CC32-.C) CO2.D) MgCl2.E) Al2(SO4)3.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Al2(SO4)3

Explanation:

Looking at this carefully, we will discover that Al2(SO4)3 is composed of Al^3+ and SO4^2-.

The aluminum and sulphate ions are ionically bonded. However, the oxygen and sulphur in the sulphate ion are covalently bonded.

Hence, Al2(SO4)3 contains both ionic and covalent bond.

Potassium carbonate, K 2CO 3, sodium iodide, NaI, potassium bromide, KBr, methanol, CH 3OH, and ammonium chloride, NH 4Cl, are s
slava [35]

Answer:

Potassium carbonate (K₂CO₃)

Explanation:

The compounds dissociate into ions in water, as follows:

K₂CO₃ → 2 K⁺ + CO₃⁻    ⇒ 3 dissolved particles per mole

NaI → Na⁺ + I⁻    ⇒ 2 dissolved particles per mole

KBr → K⁺ + Br⁻   ⇒ 2 dissolved particles per mole

CH₃OH → CH₃O⁻ + H⁺  ⇒ 2 dissolved particles per mole

NH₄Cl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻   ⇒ 2 dissolved particles per mole

Therefore, the largest number of dissolved particles per mole of dissolved solute is produced by potassium carbonate (K₂CO₃).

Atoms of which element have the greatest tendency to gain electrons?
Anastasy [175]
Fluorine. 

Because:- Atoms want to become stable, for an atom to become stable, they need 8 valence electrons. Since Fluorine has 7 valence electrons, it only needs one more electron to become stable and have an octet. An octet is when an atom/element has 8 valence electrons. Since Fluorine will need to gain an electron, it will have a negative charge, and become an anion.
