Answer:

0.171 grams of oxygen combined with the metal.

Explanation:

2Mg+O_2\rightarrow 2MgO

Mass of magnesium oxide produced = 0.421 g

Mass of magnesium metal used = 0.250 g

Suppose reaction completely converts the magnesium into magnesium oxide.

Mass of oxygen combined with magnesium = m

0.421 g = 0.250 g + m

m =  0.421 g - 0.250 g = 0.171 g

0.171 grams of oxygen combined with the metal.

Calculate the weight of 3.491 into 10 to the power 19 molecules of cl2​
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The mass of 3.491 × 10¹⁹ molecules of Cl₂  of Cl₂ is 4.11 × 10⁻³ grams

Explanation:

The number of particles in one mole of a substance id=s given by the Avogadro's number which is approximately 6.023 × 10²³ particles

Therefore, we have;

One mole of Cl₂ gas, which is a compound, contains 6.023 × 10²³ individual molecules of Cl₂

3.491 × 10¹⁹ molecules of Cl₂ is equivalent to (3.491 × 10¹⁹)/(6.023 × 10²³) = 5.796 × 10⁻⁵ moles of Cl₂

The mass of one mole of Cl₂ = 70.906 g/mol

The mass of 5.796 × 10⁻⁵ moles of Cl₂ = 70.906 × 5.796 × 10^(-5) = 4.11 × 10⁻³ grams

Therefore;

The mass of 3.491 × 10¹⁹ molecules of Cl₂  of Cl₂ = 4.11 × 10⁻³ grams.
