Answer is "C".

<em><u>Explanation
</u></em>

Single replacement reaction is a type of reaction which one reactant reacts with another and makes a product by replacing one element by another. 

Mg (Magnesium) reacts with Al₂O₃ (Aluminium oxide) and produces MgO (Magnesium oxide) and Al (Aluminium) as products. Here Al is replaced by Mg. Reaction is 
             Mg + Al₂O₃ → MgO + Al

To balance the reaction equation, both left and right hand sides should have same number of atoms in each element.
Here, 
 <em>Left Hand Side has </em>                                            <em>Right Hand Side has</em>
   Mg = 1 atom                                                         Mg = 1 atom
   Al = 2 atom                                                           Al = 1 atom
   O = 3 atom                                                           O = 1 atom

First step : balance the O atoms in both sides. To do that "3" should be added before MgO. 

Second step : After balancing O atoms, there will be 3 Mg atoms in right hand side. Hence to balance Mg atoms again "3" should be added before Mg in left hand side

Third step : as the final step balance the Al atoms by adding "2" before Al in the right hand side.

Then final balanced equation should be 
              3Mg + Al₂O₃ → 3MgO + 2Al

How many grams of lead(II) sulfate (303 g/mol) are needed to react with sodium chromate (162 g/mol) in order to produce 0.162 kg
Afina-wow [57]

Answer : The mass of PbSO_4 needed are, 1.515 grams.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mole of PbCrO_4.

\text{Moles of }PbCrO_4=\frac{\text{Mass of }PbCrO_4}{\text{Molar mass of }PbCrO_4}=\frac{0.162g}{323g/mole}=0.005mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of PbSO_4.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

PbSO_4+Na_2CrO_4\rightarrow PbCrO_4+Na_2SO_4[tex]From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude thatAs, 1 mole of [tex]PbCrO_4 produced from 1 mole of PbSO_4

So, 0.005 mole of PbCrO_4 produced from 0.005 mole of PbSO_4

Now we have to calculate the mass of PbSO_4

\text{Mass of }PbSO_4=\text{Moles of }PbSO_4\times \text{Molar mass of }PbSO_4

\text{Mass of }PbSO_4=0.005mole\times 303g/mole=1.515g

Therefore, the mass of PbSO_4 needed are, 1.515 grams.

Which corresponds to the composition of the ion typically formed by magnesium?
nekit [7.7K]
The ion composition of Magnesium is 12,10, 2+.
Magnesium is a chemical element with symbol Mg and an atomic number 12, it has 12 protons, and 12 electrons with a chemical configuration of 2:8:2. It requires to loose two electrons to form a stable configuration forming a cation (positively charged ion) with a charge of +2 and  a configuration of 2:8 ( 12 protons and 10 electrons).
