Silicon Tetrachloride is reacted with very pure magnesium, producing silicon and magnesium chloride. (What would be the unbalanc

ed equation? In other words I'm trying to find pure magnesium's formula.. would it be Mg2? Or just Mg?) I have SiCl4 for Silicon tetrachloride so far..
Is it: SiCl4 + Mg = Si + MgCl2 [unbalanced]?
Balanced: SiCl4 + 2Mg = Si + 2MgCl2 ??

Pure magnesium's formula would just be Mg because all elements except for 7 nonmetals are just left alone when they are by themselves in a formula. The 7 diatomic elements( means they have to have two of them without another element attached to it aka. a subscript two after it when it's by itself) are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine. An easy way to remember the diatomic seven is that when looking at a periodic table if you trace over them from nitrogen over to fluorine and down to iodine all of those elements are diatomic + hydrogen. 

And your unbalanced and balanced equations are correct.

(sorry I went on a tangent with the diatomic rules hopefully it will help you in the future though)

Will you obtain a pure solid in evaporation technique? Justify your answer
aniked [119]

Evaporation technique is used to separate a compound dissolved in a solvent by vaporizing the solvent and converting it to gaseous state. This leaves behind the solid residue present in the solution after the pure solvent is vaporized. The solvent vapors can be collected and condensed to get pure solvent. But the solid residue cannot be considered pure as it is the left over solid after all the solvent is evaporated. If the solution has some impurities, the solid left over includes all of the impurities. So, we cannot obtain a pure solid in evaporation technique.

If an object has a mass of 25g and a volume of 5cm what is the density ​
sergij07 [2.7K]

Density= 5m^3

Explanation:

Here, the Mass of an object is 25g

To convert grams into kilograms, we need to divide 25 by 1000

so, the 25g=25/1000 = 0.025kg.

The volume of an object is given by 5cm^3 ( cubic centimetre)

To convert cubic centimetre to meter cube, we need to divide 5 by 1000.

So, 5cm^3=5/1000=0.005m^3

Finally, the equation of density is

DENSITY= MASS/VOLUME

Density = 0.025/0.005

            = 5m^3

Hence, the density of the object is  5m^3.
