What is the formula to use for this question, "how far does light travel in 2.5s"?
Nutka1998 [239]
The definition of the speed of light is exactly 299,792,458 meters per second, so to find how far it travels in a time period, multiply the speed of light times the time. Aka c=299,792,458m/s where c is speed of light, m is meters, and s is seconds. So for example to find how far light travels in 5 seconds, multiply by 5.

Pb + Mg(NO₃)₂   →    Pb(NO₃)₂  +  Mg
This reaction would NOT occur because Pb is less reactive than Mg and as such Pb cannot displace the Mg in order for the reaction to occur under normal conditions.


Mg  +  Fe(NO₃)₂   →   Fe  + Mg(NO₃)₂
This reaction would occur. This is because Mg is more reactive than Fe and as such can displace it in the reaction, thus allowing the reaction to occur under normal conditions.


Cu + Mg(NO₃)₂   →   Cu(NO₃)₂  +  Mg
This reaction would NOT occur. Mg is more reactive than Cu, and as such copper cannot displace magnesium in order for the reaction to occur under normal conditions.
