<u>Answer:</u> The percent composition of
in taconite is 37.6 %.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Mass of taconite pellets = 1 ton = 907185 g (Conversion factor: 1 ton = 907185 g)
Mass of iron produced = 545 lb = 247212 g (Conversion factor: 1 lb = 453.6 g )
We know that:
Molar mass of iron = 55.85 g/mol
Molar mass of
= 231.53 g/mol
1 mole of
contains 3 moles of iron atom and 4 moles of oxygen atom
(3 × 55.85) = 167.55 g of iron is produced from 231.53 grams of 
So, 247212 grams of iron will be produced from =
of 
To calculate the percentage of
in taconite, we use the equation:

Mass of taconite = 907185 g
Mass of
= 341611.43 g
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the percent composition of
in taconite is 37.6 %.
14. a. Acidic
15. b. Weaker
16. d. Dilute and weak
Explanation:
14. Which type of the solution is one with the pH of 3?
Solution with pH from 1 to 7 are acidic, equal to 7 is neutral and from 7 to 14 basic. The solution with the pH equal to 3 is <u>acidic</u>.
15. The smaller the value of the base dissociation constant (Kb), the <u>weaker</u> the base.
The dissociation reaction of a base (B) is:
B + H₂O → BH⁺ + OH⁻
Kb is defined as:
Kb = ( [BH⁺] × [OH⁻] ) / ( [B] × [H₂O] )
The potency of the base depends on the concentration of the hydroxide ion [OH⁻], so if the Kb ratio is small it means that the concentration of hydroxide ion is smaller so the base will be <u>weaker</u>.
16. A 0.39 M solution of an acid that ionizes only slightly in solution would be termed <u>dilute and weak</u>.
The acid is weak because is only slightly ionizing in solution. The therm diluted is a little bit arbitrarily because we ask yourself "diluted in respect with what"? I would characterize the acid to be diluted at a concentration of 1 M and concentrated at a concentration of 10 M.

Answer:
E²⁺
Explanation:
The group two contain alkaline earth metals.
There are six elements in group 2A.
Beryllium, Magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium and radium.
All members have two valance electrons.
They lose two valance electrons to complete the octet.
When they lose the two valance electrons they form cation X²⁺.
They react with halogens and form salt such as
MgCl₂, CaCl₂ etc.
Mg²⁺ Cl²⁻₂
The oxidation state of halogens are -1, while the elements of group two A shows +2 that's why two atoms of halogen are combine with one atom of alkaline earth metals and make the compound overall neutral.
All the alkaline earth metals have similar properties.
