What percent of magnesium bromide, MgBr2, is magnesium?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nat2105 [25]3 years ago
7 0
First, we need to calculate the molar mass of the whole compound by adding the masses of each atom from the periodic table. 

Mg= 24.3 g/mol
Br= 80.0 g/mol

molar mass MgBr2= 24.3 + 2 x 80.0= 184.3 g/mol

to find the percent of magnesium doing "parts over the whole"
the mass of magnesium over the total mass. then times 100 because it is a percentage value

24.3/184.3x 100= 13.2%

How many grams of oxygen can be obtained from 250. grams of KCIO3?
guapka [62]

Answer:

Keep it simple. If all the oxygen contained in the 200 grams of potassium chlorate is produced in the decomposition, then all we have to do is find out how many grams of oxygen are there in the 200 grams. This we can do by calculating the ratio of oxygen mass to the whole. Using 39.1 for potassium, 35.45 for chlorine and 3 times 16, or 48 for the oxygen, we get a total of 122.55 grams per mole for potassium chlorate, of which 48 grams are oxygen. This ratio is 48/122.55. This ratio times the original 200 grams of the compound, gives us 78.34 grams of oxygen produced.

A sample of a compound contains 3.21 g of sulfur and 11.4 g of fluorine. Which of the following represents the empirical formula
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

The empirical formula is SF6 (option E)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sulfur = 3.21 grams

Mass of fluorine = 11.4 grams

Molar mass sulfur = 32.065 g/mol

Molar mass fluorine = 19.00 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = mass /molar mass

Moles sulfur = 3.21 grams / 32.065 g/mol

Moles sulfur = 0.100 moles

Moles fluorine = 11.4 grams / 19.00 g/mol

Moles fluorine = 0.600 moles

Step 3: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

S: 0.100 / 0.100 = 1

F : 0.600 / 0.100 = 6

The empirical formula is SF6 (option E)

The melting points of alkaline earth metals are many times higher than those of the alkali metals. Explain this difference on th
7nadin3 [17]

The correct answer is higher melting point, bound by metal metal bonds.

While alkali metals only have one valence electron, alkaline earth metals have two. Metal to metal connections hold the metals together. Alkaline earth metals have a stronger metallic connection and a higher melting point because they have two valence electrons.

the characteristics that Group 2 metals excel in over Group 1 metals.

  • Initial Ionization Potential
  • Group 2 items are more difficult than group 1 elements.
  • Strong propensity to produce bivalent compounds

As a result, group 2 metals have stronger metallic bonding, which leads to increased cohesive energy and compact atom packing. This explains why group 2 metals are harder and have higher melting and boiling temperatures than group 1 metals.

A balloon is filled with 35.0 L of helium in the morning when the temperature is 35.00 oC.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: V = 33.9 L

Explanation: We will use Charles Law to solve for the new volume.

Charles Law is expressed in the following formula. Temperatures must be converted in Kelvin.

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2 then derive for V2

V2 = V1 T2 / T1

= 35 L ( 308 K ) / 318 K

= 33.9 L
