Answer:

Because of its malleability.

Explanation:

Magnesium is alkaline earth metal.

It is present in second group.

It is shiny gray color metal.

It is lighter but strong.

Its density is 1.738 g/mL.

It is soft and can be malleable. Magnesium ribbons are also formed by stretching the magnesium metal and this is due to the malleability of magnesium.

Magnesium ribbon burns and produces heat.

It is used to make the many light weight products such as many parts of car, phone, laptop, luggage etc.

It is also used to remove the sulfur such as from iron and steel.

It is also used in fireworks.

It is also used in medicine such as for constipation.

It is used as antiacid for heart burn.

MgCl2 + AgNO3 → AgCl + Mg(NO3)2

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

MgCl2 + 2AgNO3 → 2AgCl + Mg(NO3)2

Explanation:

I'm assuming you want to balance it so...

The first thing I see is that there are two chlorines on the reactant side and one on the product side

Adding a coefficient of 2 would get 2AgCl2

Now there are two silvers on the reactant side, so add a 2 to AgNO3 on the products side. Now they are all balanced.

If that is not what you are looking for let me know!

A reaction of importance in the formation of smog is that between ozone and nitrogen monoxide described by O 3 ( g ) + NO ( g )

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

(a) 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s

(b) 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹

Explanation:

(a) The reaction is:

O₃(g) + NO(g) → O₂(g) + NO₂(g) (1)

The reaction rate of equation (1) is given by:

$rate = k*[O_{3}][NO]$ (2)

k: is the rate constant of reaction = 3.91x10⁶ M⁻¹.s⁻¹

[O₃]₀ = 2.35x10⁻⁶ M

[NO]₀ = 7.74x10⁻⁵ M

Hence, to find the inital reacion rate we will use equation (2):

$rate = k*[O_{3}]_{0}[NO]_{0} = 3.91 \cdot 10^{6} M^{-1}s^{-1}*2.35\cdot 10^{-6} M*7.74 \cdot 10^{-5} M = 7.11 \cdot 10^{-4} M/s$

Therefore, the inital reaction rate is 7.11x10⁻⁴ M/s

(b) The number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is:

t = 1 h

V = 1 L

$\frac{\Delta[NO_{2}]}{\Delta t} = rate$

$\frac{\Delta[NO_{2}]}{\Delta t} = 7.11 \cdot 10^{-4} M/s*\frac{3600 s}{1 h} = 2.56 mol.L^{-1}.h{-1}$

Hence, the number of moles of NO₂(g) produced per hour per liter of air is 2.56 mol.L⁻¹.h⁻¹

I hope it helps you!

True or false? The molar mass of a gas determines the amount of kinetic energy of the gas.

HACTEHA [7]

The answer is false..............<span>kinetic theory of gases is a topic that can explain many everyday observations. Have you ever wondered why water boils faster at higher altitudes? Or why inflatable pool toys seem flat after sitting in a cold garage? How about why you can smell a candle all throughout the house? All of these phenomena and many more can be explained by the kinetic theory of gases.</span>

Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) is an important analytical tool used to characterize the composition of materials i

Setler [38]

Answer:

The equation for the Kinetic Energy, $KE_e$ , of the photo-emitted electrons is given as follows;

$KE_e = h\cdot f- BE$

Please find attached the required plot of the kinetic energy versus the frequency

Explanation:

The equation for the Kinetic Energy, $KE_e$ , of the photo-emitted electrons is given as follows;

$KE_e = h\cdot f- BE$

Where:

h = Planck's constant = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ J·s

f = Frequency

BE = Binding Energy = 2.71 eV for Calcium metal

f₀ = Threshold frequency for the material

The ionization energy is the energy required to free an electron from an isolated atom
