The balanced chemical reaction is 

<span>2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

To determine the amount of magnesium oxide produced from the reaction, we use the initial amount of the reactants and the relation of the substances from the reaction. We do as follows:

125 g Mg ( 1 mol / 24.31 g ) = 5.14 mol Mg
102 g O2 ( 1 mol / 32 g) = 3.19 mol O2

Therefore, the limiting reactant is magnesium. We calculate as follows:

5.14 mol Mg ( 2 mol MgO / 2 mol Mg ) ( 40.31 g /mol) = 207.19 g MgO produced.</span>

A chemist needs to make 250 mL of a 2.50 M aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide from a 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution. How
Furkat [3]

Answer:

250 mL (total solution)  = 104 mL (stock solution)  + 146 mL (water)

Explanation:

Data Given

M1 = 6.00 M

M2 = 2.5 M

V1 = 250 mL

V2 = ?

Solution:

As the chemist needs to prepare 250 mL of solution from 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution to prepare a 2.50 M aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide.

Now

first he have to determine the amount of ammonium hydroxide solution that will be taken from6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution

For this Purpose we use the following formula

                    M1V1=M2V2

Put values from given data in the formula

                   6 x V1 = 2.5 x 250

Rearrange the equation

                   V1 = 2.5 x 250 /6

                    V1 = 104 mL

So 104 mL is the volume of the solution which we have to take from the 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution to prepare 2.5 M  aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide

But we have to prepare 250 mL of the solution.

so the chemist will take 104 mL from 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution and have to add 146 mL water to make 250 mL of new solution.

in this question you have to tell about the amount of water that is 146 mL

250 mL (total solution)  = 104 mL (stock solution)  + 146 mL (water)

The chemical reaction in which solid calcium oxide is treated liquid water is an example of what: A) decomposition B)combustion
laiz [17]

Answer:

The chemical reaction in which solid calcium oxide is treated liquid water is an example of Synthesis reaction. Hence, the answer is (D) Synthesis.

Explanation:

The formula of Calcium Oxide is CaO.

The formula of liquid water is H₂O.

Calcium Oxide reacts with water and forms Calcium Hydroxide. The Chemical equation is shown below.

CaO + H₂O --> Ca(OH)₂.

This is a Synthesis reaction because Ca(OH)₂ is synthesized by using Calcium Oxide and water.

The product of this reaction is calcium hydroxide, also known as slaked lime.

Thus, when calcium oxide reacts with water, slaked lime is produced.  

Calcium oxide is also known as lime and is most commonly used for many purposes. It can be used for pH correction of water or for its disinfection (with excess lime).
