Magnesium burns with oxygen to give magnesium oxide based on the following reaction:
2M<span>g</span>+<span>O<span>2 </span></span>........> 2Mg<span>O<span>(s)</span></span>+<span>energy
</span>From the periodic table:
molecular mass of magnesium = 24.3 grams
molecular mass of oxygen = 16 grams
From the reaction:
2 x 24.3 = 48.6 grams of magnesium are required to produce 2(24.3+16) = 80.6 grams of magnesium oxide.
We can know the amount of magnesium oxide produced from 8 grams of magnesium by simply doing cross multiplication as follows:
amount of magnesium oxide = (8 x 80.6) / 48.6 = 13.267 grams
At 4 °C, the clusters start forming. The molecules are still slowing down and coming closer together, but the formation of clusters makes the molecules be further apart. Thus, the density of water is a maximum at 4 °C.
There are about 7 or 8 primary tectonic plates. The lithosphere is made of about a dozen plates. The plates fit together like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. However, the plates can move. This causes earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountains to form.
