1.386 g of Mg ribbon combusts to form 2.309 g of oxide product. The mass percent of oxygen in the oxide is 40.0 %.
Let's consider the reaction for the combustion of Mg.
Mg + 1/2 O₂ ⇒ MgO
1.386 g of Mg combusts to form 2.309 g of MgO. We want to determine the mass of oxygen in MgO. According to Lavoisier's law of conservation of mass, matter is not created nor destroyed over the course of a chemical reaction. Then, the mass of Mg in the reactants is equal to the mass of Mg in MgO. The mass of the magnesium oxide is the sum of the masses of magnesium and oxygen. The <u>mass of oxygen in the oxide</u> is:

We can calculate the mass percent of O in MgO using the following expression.

Answer:
Hence the correct option is an option (b) Sr4, Cl,Br−,Na+.
Explanation:
Bromine and chlorine belong to an equivalent group. As we go down the group the dimensions increases which too there's a charge on the bromine atom. therefore the size of the Br- is going to be larger in comparison to the chlorine atom.
Sr atom is within the second group, and also it's below the above-mentioned atoms.so Sr is going to be the larger one among all the atoms.
Sodium and chlorine belong to an equivalent period .size decrease from left to right. but due to the charge on sodium its size decreases and there's an opportunity that Na+ size could be adequate for Cl.
Here we finally assume that two atoms are of an equivalent size (Na+ and Cl) which are less in size compared to the opposite two(Sr and Br-) during which one is greater (Sr)and the opposite is smaller(Br-).
