Answer:
Monatomic molecule
Explanation:
Each helium atom has 2 electrons, which is already the maximum no. of electrons that can fit in the first electron shell. When the outermost electron shell is full (2 for the first layer, 8 for others), the atom is stable.
Helium atom itself is already stable, so it doesn't need to combine with another helium atom to form a molecule, hence we call it monatomic.
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).
Dilution refers to decreasing the ratio of total solution to the reference solution by the addition of other liquids. By adding water to tomato soup, the balance of “tomato soup” molecules decreases from 100% tomato soup, to eventually 1:1 TS and Water (50%), and so on. Chemically, you can observe this as decreasing the concentration of tomato soup in this solution.
