Answer:
Our atmosphere is a mixture of gases that surround Earth. It is kept in place by the pull of Earth's gravity. If Earth was a much smaller planet, like Mercury or Pluto, its gravity would be to weak to hold a large atmosphere.
Explanation:
Answer:
4 mol of lithium nitride would be produced
Explanation:
6Li + N2 → 2Li3N
This equation means that 6 mol of lithium are reacted with 1 mol of nitrogen to make, 2 mol of lithium nitride.
So this is the rule of three to find out, how many moles of lithium nitride are been made, from 12 mol of Li.
6 Li _____ 2 Li3N
12 Li ________ (12. 2) / 6 = 4 moles
Answer:
22.77 g.
he limiting reactant is O₂, and the excess reactant is Mg.
Explanation:
- From the balanced reaction:
<em>Mg + 1/2O₂ → MgO,</em>
1.0 mole of Mg reacts with 0.5 mole of oxygen to produce 1.0 mole of MgO.
- We need to calculate the no. of moles of (16.3 g) of Mg and (4.52 g) of oxygen:
no. of moles of Mg = mass/molar mass = (16.3 g)/(24.3 g/mol) = 0.6708 mol.
no. of moles of O₂ = mass/molar mass = (4.52 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = 0.2825 mol.
So. 0.565 mol of Mg reacts completely with (0.2825 mol) of O₂.
<em>∴ The limiting reactant is O₂, and the excess reactant is Mg (0.6708 - 0.565 = 0.1058 mol).</em>
<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>
1.0 mole of Mg produce → 1.0 mol of MgO.
∴ 0.565 mol of Mg produce → <em>0.565 mol of MgO.</em>
<em>∴ The amount of MgO produced = no. of moles x molar mass </em>= (0.565 mol)(40.3 g/mol) = <em>22.77 g.</em>
Answer: Oxidation reaction occurs when a reactant losses electrons in the reaction.
Reduction reaction occurs when a reactant gains electrons in the reaction.
Explanation: Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. That means, the gain of electrons takes place.
Or we can say that, reduction reaction occurs when a reactant gains electrons in the reaction.
Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.
It is softer than topaz and and it is softer than diamond (diamond has a Mohs hardness of 10, which is the highest value of the scale)
