<u>Answer:</u> The number of formula units in the given amount of magnesium chloride is 1.0357\times 10^{23}

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}  

Given mass of magnesium chloride = 16.4 g

Molar mass of magnesium chloride = 95.2 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of }MgCl_2=\frac{16.4g}{95.2g/mol}=0.172mol

Formula units is defined as lowest whole number ratio of ions in an ionic compound. It is calculated by multiplying the number of moles by Avogadro's number which is 6.022\times 10^{23}

We are given:

Number of moles of magnesium chloride = 0.172 moles

Number of formula units = 0.172\times 6.022\times 10^{23}=1.0357\times 10^{23}

Hence, the number of formula units in the given amount of magnesium chloride is 1.0357\times 10^{23}

The Spirit of America Goodyear blimp has a volume of 2.027×105 ft3.When the blimp is in operation, it is filled with helium gas.
Andru [333]
Answer: 1.027 x 10^6 g= 1027kg
In this question, you are given the volume of the blimp (2.027×10^5 ft^3) and the density of the gas(0.179g/L). To answer this question, you need to convert the volume unit into liter. The calculation would be: 2.027×10^5 ft^3 x 28.3168L/ft3= 57.398 x 10^5L= 5.74x10^6L

Then to find the mass, multiply the volume with the density. The calculation would be: 5.74x10^6L x 0.179g/L= 1.027 x 10^6 g= 1027kg

Consider the following reaction at 298K.
lakkis [162]

The true statements are;

  • K < 0
  • Eocel  < 0

<h3>What is a redox reaction?</h3>

We define a redox reaction as one in which a specie is oxidized and another is reduced.

Now;

Eo cell = cell potential = -0.13 V - (+0.34 V) = -0.47 V

n =number of moles of electrons = 2 mole of electrons

K = equilibrium constant

ΔG = change in free energy

Eo cell = 0.0592/n log K

-0.47 =  0.0592/2 log K

log K =  -0.47  * 2/0.0592

K = 1.3 * 10^-16

ΔG = -nFEo cell

ΔG = -(2 * 96500 * -0.47)

ΔG = 90.7kJ

What alkene reacts the fastest with HBr?
Rasek [7]
The first step in the reaction is the double bond of the Alkene going after the H of HBr. This protonates the Alkene via Markovnikov's rule, and forms a carbocation. The stability of this carbocation dictates the rate of the reaction. 

<span>So to solve your problem, protonate all your Alkenes following Markovnikov's rule, and then compare the relative stability of your resulting carbocations. Tertiary is more stable than secondary, so an Alkene that produces a tertiary carbocation reacts faster than an Alkene that produces a secondary carbocation.
