How does magnesium and nitric acid react? (Observations)

Chemistry
1 answer:
ankoles [38]4 years ago
5 0

It depends on the strength of the nitric acid. With dilute acid magnesium nitrate and hydrogen gas is formed. The gas reacts violently with a naked flame.

With concentrated nitric acid a violent reaction occurs and lots of reddish brown fumes of nitrogen oxides (NO and NO2) are produced.

For the reaction HNO3 + Mg(OH)2→ Mg(NO3)2 + H2O, how many grams of magnesium nitrate are produced from 8.00 mol of nitric acid,
ollegr [7]

Answer:

tha mass of magnesium nitrate is 592g

Explanation:

from a balanced chemical equation

2HNO3 + Mg(OH)2→ Mg(NO3)2 + 2H2O

2 mol of nitric acid is equivalent to 1 mol of magnesium nitrate. then 8 mol of nitric acid will be equivalent to 4 mol of magnesium nitrate.

P4O10 -> 4P+5O2 How many moles of phosphorus would be produced if 5.3 mol of P4O10 reacted?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

21.2 moles.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the given chemical reaction, we can see there is a 1:4 mole ratio between tetraphosphorous decaoxide and phosphorous; therefore, the following proportional factor provides the requested moles of phodphorous:

n_P=5.3molP_4O_{10} *\frac{4molP}{1molP_4O_{10}} \\\\n_P=21.2molP

Best regards!

the copper anode is weighed before and after the electrolysis reation. if the copper anode is not completely dry when it is weig
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Faraday's constant will be smaller than it is supposed to be.

Explanation:

If the copper anode was not completely dry when its mass was measured, mass of the copper must be heavier than it should have been. Hence, the calculated Faraday’s constant would be smaller than it is supposed to be since when calculating Faraday’s Constant, the charge transferred is divided by the moles of electrons.

When 3.0 kg of water is warmed from 10 °C to 80 °C, how much heat energy is needed?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

THE HEAT NEEDED TO CHANGE 3KG OF WATER FROM 10 C TO 80 C IS 877.8kJ OR 877,800 J.

Explanation:

Mass = 3.0 kg = 3 * 1000 = 3000 g

Initial temperature = 10 C

Final temperature = 80 C

Change in temperature = 80 - 10 = 70 C

Specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g C

Heat needed = unknown

Heat is the amount of energy in joules needed to change a gram of water by 1 C.

Heat = mass * specific heat * change in temperature

Heat = 3000 g * 4.18 J/g C * 70 C

Heat = 877 800 Joules

Heat = 877.8 kJ.

The heat needed to change 3 kg mass of water from 10 C to 80 C is 877,800 J or 877.8 kJ.
