Zinc and magnesium metal each reacts with hydrochloric acid to make chloride salts of the respective metals, and hydrogen gas. a

11.20-g mixture of zinc and magnesium produces 0.6854 g of hydrogen gas upon being mixed with an excess of hydrochloric acid. determine the percent magnesium by mass in the original mixture.

M=11.20 g
m(H₂)=0.6854 g
M(H₂)=2.016 g/mol
M(Mg)=24.305 g/mol
M(Zn)=65.39 g/mol
w-?

m(Mg)=wm
m(Zn)=(1-w)m

Zn + 2HCl = ZnCl₂ + H₂
m₁(H₂)=M(H₂)m(Zn)/M(Zn)=M(H₂)(1-w)m/M(Zn)

Mg + 2HCl = MgCl₂ + H₂
m₂(H₂)=M(H₂)m(Mg)/M(Mg)=M(H₂)wm/M(Mg)

m(H₂)=m₁(H₂)+m₂(H₂)
m(H₂)=M(H₂)(1-w)m/M(Zn)+M(H₂)wm/M(Mg)=M(H₂)m{(1-w)/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)}

m(H₂)=M(H₂)m{(1-w)/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)}

(1-w)/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)=m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}

1/M(Zn)-w/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)=m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}

w(1/M(Mg)-1/M(Zn))=m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}-1/M(Zn)

w=[m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}-1/M(Zn)]/(1/M(Mg)-1/M(Zn))

w=0.583 (58.3%)

What is the phase of water at 0.25 atm and 0°C?
seropon [69]
D.) as you can tell the temperature is the x axis while pressure (atm) is the y axis, so therefore you’d find (0,0.25) which gives u solid because its not near water or gas

How many photons are produced in a laser pulse of 0.897 J at 407 nm?
Leona [35]
The relationship between energy of a single photon and its wavelength can be determined using the formula E=hc/lambda where E is energy, h is Planck's constant, c is the speed of light, and lambda is photons.

Before being able to solve for energy, need to convert nanometers to meters.

407 nm (1 m/1 x 10^9 nm) = 4.07 x 10^-7 m

Then plug in the values we know into the equation.
E h(Planck's constant) c(speed of light)
E = (6.63 x 10^-34 Js)(3 x 10^8 m/s) / 4.07 x 10^-7 m (lambda)

E=(0.000000000000000000000000000000000663js)(300,000,000m/s)=1.989×10^-25j/ms

E=1.989x10^-25j/ms /{divided by} 4.07x10^-7m = 4.8869779x10^-33 J (the meters cancel out)

E = 4.89 x 10^-33 J

This gives us the energy in Joules of a single photon. Now, we can find the number of photons in 0.897 J

0.897J / 4.89 x 10^-33 J = ((0.897 J) / 4.89) x ((10^(-33)) J) = 1.8343558 x 10^-34

1.83435583 × 10-34m4 kg2 / s4 photons

Backpackers often use canisters of white gas to fuel a cooking stove's burner. If one canister contains 1.45 L of white gas, and
Vaselesa [24]

The number of  kilograms  of fuel   that are contained in one  canister  is 1.03 Kilograms


calculation

mass =  density x  volume

Density= 0.710 g/cm³

volume = 1.45 L

convert  1.45 l into cm³  to make the units  uniform

that is     1 L= 1000 cm³

              1.45 L=  cm³

by cross  multiplication

= (1.45 L  x 1000 cm³)  / 1 L  = 1450 cm³


mass is therefore =   0.710g/cm³  x 1450 cm³   =1029.5 grams


convert grams to Kg

1 kg = 1000 grams

  ? kg  =1029.5  grams

by cross  multiplication

= (1 kg  x 1029.5 grams) /1000 grams  = 1.0295 Kg ≅1.03 kg
