Answer:

2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

Explanation:

In all conbustion you should know, that reactans are an specific compound and O2, so the products must be CO2 and H2O, or in this case, the corresponding oxide.

A certain substance X has a normal freezing point of -10.1 degree C and a molal freezing point depression constant K_f = 5.32 de

kirill115 [55]

Answer: $-15.4^00C$

Explanation:

$T^0_f-T_f=i\times k_f\times \frac{w_2\times 1000}{M_2\times w_1}$

where,

$T_f$ = boiling point of solution = ?

$T^o_f$ = boiling point of solvent (X) = $-10.1^oC$

$k_f$ = freezing point constant = $5.32^oC/kgmol$

m = molality

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte like urea)

= mass of solute (urea) = 29.82 g

= mass of solvent (X) = 500.0 g

$M_2$ = molar mass of solute (urea) = 60 g/mol

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$(-10.1-(T_f))^oC=1\times (5.32^oC/m)\times \frac{(29.82g)\times 1000}{60\times (500.0g)}$

$T_f=-15.4^0C$

Therefore, the freezing point of solution is $-15.4^0C$

When KNO3 dissolved in water, what is the intermolecular attraction between NO3 ions

Snezhnost [94]

Ion-dipole forces

H2O has hydrogen bonding, which is a form of dipole-dipole forces, and NO3- is an ion, so the intermolecular attraction is ion-dipole.

In the reaction N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, what is the mole ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen?

uranmaximum [27]

Answer: The mole ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen is 3 mole: 1 mole, 3:1

Explanation:

•Mole ratios are determined using the coefficients of the substances in the balanced chemical equation. •Each coefficient represents the number of mole of each substance in the chemical reaction.

•The mole ratio can be determined by first writing out a balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ----> 2NH3(g)

1mol:3mol : 2mol

From the equation we can see that 1 mole of N2(g) reacts with 3 moles of H2(g) or 3 moles of H2(g) react with 1 mole of N2(g) to produce 2 moles of NH3(g).

Therefore, the mole ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen is 3 mole: 1 mole, 3:1

Ultraviolet radiation and radiation of shorter wavelengths can damage biological molecules because they carry enough energy to b

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

343.98 nm is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon–carbon bonds.

Explanation:

A typical carbon–carbon bond requires 348 kJ/mol=348000 J/mol

Energy required to breakl sigle C-C bond:E

$E=\frac{348000 J/mol}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}}=5.7788\times 10^{-19} J$
