What is the percentage composition when 10g of magnesium combines with 4g of nitrogen?
Ivanshal [37]
The %  composition   when 10g of magnesium combine   with  4g of   nitrogen  is  71.43%   magnesium   and  28.57 %  nitrogen

               calculation

%
  composition  =  mass  of an element  / total mass  x100
mass  of magnesium = 10 g
mass of nitrogen  =  4g

calculate  the  total  mass  used

=  10g of  Magnesium  + 4 g of  nitrogen = 14 grams

%   composition for  magnesium  is therefore  =  10/14  x100 = 71.43 %

%  
composition  for  nitrogen  is therefore = 4 /14  x100  =   28.57 %

Which element in period 3 has three times the electronegativity value compared to that of li in period 2
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Nitrogen

Explanation:

Elements in period two includes lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon.

According to periodic trends, the electro negativity values are expected to increase across the period up to fluorine. Hence, as we go right wards, we encounter elements with higher electronegative values.

While lithium has an electronegative value of 1 , the electronegative value of element nitrogen is thrrr times this which is equal to three

A tank of gas is found to exert 8.6 atm at 38°C. What would be the required
Vesna [10]

Answer:

36.2 K

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial pressure of the gas (P₁): 8.6 atm
  • Initial temperature of the gas (T₁): 38°C
  • Final pressure of the gas (P₂): 1.0 atm (standard pressure)
  • Final temperature of the gas (T₂): ?

Step 2: Convert T₁ to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C +273.15

K = 38 °C +273.15 = 311 K

Step 3: Calculate T₂

We will use Gay Lussac's law.

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

T₂ = P₂ × T₁/P₁

T₂ = 1.0 atm × 311 K/8.6 atm = 36.2 K
