Answer:
C) 2 H₂ + O₂ → 2 H₂O
Explanation:
4 atoms of hydrogen on reactant side
2 atoms of oxygen on reactant side
4 atoms of hydrogen on product side
2 atoms of oxygen on product side
Table Giving Answer
Element Atomic mass % Amount
Mg_24 24 79 18.96
Mg_25 25 10 2.5
Mg_26 26 11 2.86
Total 24.32
Discussion
The method of calculation for this table, which was done in Excel (a spread sheet) is shown below. Assume that there is 100 grams of material of "pure" magnesium. What is it's mass?
<em><u>Sample Calculation</u></em>
The the sample atomic mass = 24
Mass = % * sample atomic mass
Mass = 79% * 24
Mass = (79/100) * 24
Mass = 18.96
<em><u>Note</u></em>
The other two elements are found exactly the same as the sample calculation.
Then all you do is add the 3 masses together.
Answer
The mass of Mg to 1 decimal place is 24.3 <<<< Answer.
Gray matter hope this helps!
Explanation:
Some Rules Regarding Oxidation Numbers:
- Hydrogen has oxidation number of + 1 except in hydrides where it is -1
- Oxygen has oxidation number of -2 except in peroxides where it is -1
- Some elements have fixed oxidation numbers. E.g Halogen group elements has oxidation number of -1
- Oxidation number of a compound is the sum total of the individual elements and a neutral compound has oxidation number of 0.
A. HI
Hydrogen has oxidation of + 1
Oxidation number of I:
1 + x = 0
x = -1
B. PBr3
Br has oxidation number of - 1
Oxidation number of Pb:
x + 3 (-1) = 0
x = + 3
C. KH
Hydrogen has oxidation of + 1
Oxidation number of K:
1 + x = 0
x = -1
D. H3PO4
Hydrogen has oxidation number of + 1
Oxygen has oxidation number of -2
Oxidation number of P:
3(1) + x + 4(-2) = 0
3 + x - 8 =0
x = 5
