Answer:-

3.2 grams

Explanation:-

The chemical formula for Magnesium Oxide is MgO.

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

2Mg + O2 --> 2MgO

Atomic weight of Mg = 24 grams

Molecular weight of oxygen gas O2 = 16 x 2 = 32 grams.

Molecular weight of MgO = 24 x 1 + 16 x 1 = 40 grams

From the balanced chemical equation we see

To produce 2 MgO we require 1 O2.

∴ To produce 2 x 40 grams of MgO we require 32 grams of Oxygen.

To produce 8 grams of MgO we require 32 x 8 / ( 2 x 40) grams of oxygen

= 3.2 grams of oxygen

A student sets up the following equation to convert a measurement.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

\frac{1 m}{100 cm}

Explanation:

The final answer has a different set of units. In particular, meters (m) changes to centimeters (cm). To make this change, you need to multiply the first value by proportions.

When writing these proportions, it is important that they are arranged in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. For instance, since m is located in the denominator, it must be located in the numerator of the conversion.

<u>Proportion:</u>

1 m = 100 cm

The full expression:

<h3>-1.7*10^5\frac{V}{m}  ·  \frac{1 m}{100 cm}  =  ? \frac{V}{cm}</h3><h2>                 ^</h2>

As you can see, the old unit (m) cancels out and you are left with cm in the denominator.

Determine the mole fractions and partial pressures of CO2, CH4, and He in a sample of gas that contains 1.20 moles of CO2, 1.79
BARSIC [14]

Answer :  The mole fraction and partial pressure of CH_4,CO_2 and He gases are, 0.267, 0.179, 0.554 and 1.54, 1.03 and 3.20 atm respectively.

Explanation : Given,

Moles of CH_4 = 1.79 mole

Moles of CO_2 = 1.20 mole

Moles of He = 3.71 mole

Now we have to calculate the mole fraction of CH_4,CO_2 and He gases.

\text{Mole fraction of }CH_4=\frac{\text{Moles of }CH_4}{\text{Moles of }CH_4+\text{Moles of }CO_2+\text{Moles of }He}

\text{Mole fraction of }CH_4=\frac{1.79}{1.79+1.20+3.71}=0.267

and,

\text{Mole fraction of }CO_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }CO_2}{\text{Moles of }CH_4+\text{Moles of }CO_2+\text{Moles of }He}

\text{Mole fraction of }CO_2=\frac{1.20}{1.79+1.20+3.71}=0.179

and,

\text{Mole fraction of }He=\frac{\text{Moles of }He}{\text{Moles of }CH_4+\text{Moles of }CO_2+\text{Moles of }He}

\text{Mole fraction of }He=\frac{3.71}{1.79+1.20+3.71}=0.554

Thus, the mole fraction of CH_4,CO_2 and He gases are, 0.267, 0.179 and 0.554 respectively.

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of CH_4,CO_2 and He gases.

According to the Raoult's law,

p_i=X_i\times p_T

where,

p_i = partial pressure of gas

p_T = total pressure of gas  = 5.78 atm

X_i = mole fraction of gas

p_{CH_4}=X_{CH_4}\times p_T

p_{CH_4}=0.267\times 5.78atm=1.54atm

and,

p_{CO_2}=X_{CO_2}\times p_T

p_{CO_2}=0.179\times 5.78atm=1.03atm

and,

p_{He}=X_{He}\times p_T

p_{He}=0.554\times 5.78atm=3.20atm

Thus, the partial pressure of CH_4,CO_2 and He gases are, 1.54, 1.03 and 3.20 atm respectively.
