If 0.66 g magnesium reacts exactly with 0.43 g oxygen, what mass of magnesium oxide will be produced?

Chemistry

Nitella [24]3 years ago

Balanced equation for the reaction is;
2Mg + O₂ --> 2MgO
stoichiometry of Mg to O₂ is 2:1
we need to first find the limiting reactant 
number of Mg moles - 0.66 g / 23 g/mol = 0.029 mol
number of O₂ moles - 0.43 g / 32 g/mol = 0.013 mol
If Mg is the limiting reactant 
2 mol of Mg reacts with 1 mol of O₂
then 0.029 mol of Mg reacts with - 0.029/2 = 0.0145 mol 
but only 0.013 mol of O₂ is present
therefore O₂ is limiting reactant. amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present,
stoichiometry of O₂ to MgO is 1:2
when 0.013 mol of O₂ reacts - 0.026 mol of MgO is formed 
mass of MgO produced is - 0.026 mol x 39 g/mol = 1.014 g
1.014 g of MgO formed

In a light wave, which properties tell you the color of light
algol13

Answer :- In a light wave the property of wave which tells about the color of light is it's Wavelength .

Wavelength is the distance between one crest and one through , also it is the distance after which the wave repeat itself !

It's SI unit is meter !

It is scalar quantity !!

Different Wavelength of light have different color !!

• VIBGYOR

i.e, Violent , Indigo , Blue , Green , Yellow Orange, and Red along with their shades are the colors which we can see !!

• They almost range from 400nm to 700nm ( visible range of light )

an atom has a charge of -3 in its orbitals which statement must be true in order for this atom to have no net charge
NISA [10]

Answer:

The atom must lose its three extra electrons to make the atom over all neutral.

Explanation:

The three subatomic particles construct an atom electron, proton and neutron. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons.

If an atom have -3 charge it means three more electrons are added. In order to make the atom overall neutral three more electrons must be removed so that negative and positive charge becomes equal and cancel the effect of each other and make the atom neutral.

Electron:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

Proton and neutron:

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷ Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg

When the coffee is brewed according to directions, a pound of coffee beans yields 50 cups of coffee (4 cups = 1 qt). How many kg
Xelga [282]

1 pound of coffee is said to yield 50 cups of coffee

So we need to find the pounds of coffee beans required to produce 250 cups

so if 50 cups need 1 pound of coffee beans

therefore 250 cups need - 1/50 x 250 = 5 pounds of coffee beans

since we have to find the amount of coffee beans needed in kg, we have to convert pounds to kg

1 pound = 0.45 kg

So if 1 pound is equivalent to 0.45 kg

then 5 pounds are equivalent to - 0.45 kg/pound x 5 pounds = 2.25 kg

therefore 2.25 kg of coffee beans are required
