Whereas ionic bonds join metals to non-metals, metallic bonding joins a bulk of metal atoms. ... Sodium metal is therefore written as Na, not Na+. ... Both of these factors increase the strength of the bond still further. ... Heat capacity: This is explained by the ability of free electrons to move about the solid.

Balance the equation for magnasuin and oxygen to yield magnasuimoxide
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

2Mg + O₂  →  2MgO

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Mg + O₂  →  MgO

Balanced chemical equation:

2Mg + O₂  →  2MgO

The balanced equation s given above and it completely follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Steps to balanced the equation:

Step 1:

Mg + O₂  →  MgO

Mg = 1         Mg = 1

O = 2           O = 1

Step 2:

2Mg + O₂  →  MgO

Mg = 2         Mg = 1

O = 2           O = 1

Step 3:

2Mg + O₂  →  2MgO

Mg = 2         Mg = 2

O = 2           O = 2

What is the molarity of 10g of carbon in a 500L solution?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Molarity is the number of moles in a liter of a substance.

Molarity= Mole/volume

Mass= 10g

Molar mass of Carbon=12g

To calculate the mole we use the formula: mole= mass/molar mass

Mole = 10g/12g

Mole = 0.83

Molarity= 0.83/500 =0.0017moles per liter
