2.258625 *10²³ oxygen atoms will be produced.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Decomposition reaction is defined as the type of reaction where one single reactant breaks to produce more than one product only by means of heat or other external factor.
Formula of magnesium oxide = MgO.
The molecular mass of magnesium oxide = 24 +16= 40.
So in 40 grams of magnesium oxide, number of molecules is 6.023 * 10²³.
So in 15 grams of magnesium oxide,, number of molecules is 6.023 *1023 * 15/40 = 2.258625 *10²³.
From one molecule of magnesium oxide, one oxide atom will be produced.
So number of oxide atoms with 100% yeild = 2.258625 *10²³
Answer:
Atoms are at their most stable when their outermost energy level is either empty of electrons or filled with electrons.
Answer: 9.68 x 10^10 grams.
Explanation:
Given that:
Mass of CO2 = ?
Number of molecules of CO2 = 2.2x10^9 molecules
Molar mass of CO2 = ? (let unknown value be Z)
For the molar mass of CO2: Atomic mass of Carbon = 12; Oxygen = 16
= 12 + (16 x 2)
= 12 + 32 = 44g/mol
Apply the formula:
Number of molecules = (Mass of CO2 in grams/Molar mass)
2.2x10^9 molecules = Z/44g/mol
Z = 2.2x10^9 molecules x 44g/mol
Z = 9.68 x 10^10g
Thus, the mass of 2.2x10^9 molecules of CO2 is 9.68 x 10^10 grams.
Since the forward reaction is endothermic (heat is consumed in the reaction) that means that the enthalpy change for the forward reaction is a positive value.
Therefore, i would say that the reverse or backward reaction is exothermic (heat is released in the reaction to the sorroundings) and that the enthalpy change is a negative value.
