Answer:

We need 1.1 grams of Mg

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of water = 78 mL

Initial temperature = 29 °C

Final temperature = 78 °C

The standard heats of formation

−285.8 kJ/mol H2O(l)

−924.54 kJ/mol Mg(OH)2(s)

Step 2: The equation

The heat is produced by the following reaction:

Mg(s)+2H2O(l)→Mg(OH)2(s)+H2(g)

Step 3: Calculate the mass of Mg needed

Using the standard heats of formation:

−285.8 kJ/mol H2O(l)

−924.54 kJ/mol Mg(OH)2(s)

Mg(s) + 2 H2O(l) → Mg(OH)2(s) + H2(g)

−924.54 kJ − (2 * −285.8 kJ) = −352.94 kJ/mol Mg

(4.184 J/g·°C) * (78 g) * (78 - 29)°C = 15991.248 J required

(15991.248 J) / (352940 J/mol Mg) * (24.3 g Mg/mol) = 1.1 g Mg

We need 1.1 grams of Mg

A solid piece of lead has a mass of 23.94g and a volume of 2.10cm^3. from these data, calculate the density of lead in si units
jeyben [28]
A density of a substance is constant. It is an extensive property, meaning it does not depend on the amount of substance because it is a ratio of mass to volume. No matter how much of each there is, they would always have a fixed ratio called density. For lead, the density is

Density = mass/volume
Density = 23.94 g/ 2.10 cm³
Density = 11.4 g/cm³

Which of the following pairs of aqueous solutions will form a precipitate when mixed?
wolverine [178]
 I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The reactants calcium sulfide and sodium sulfate will react and form a precipitate which is calcium sulfate since it is only slightly soluble in aqueous solution. Hope this answers the question.
