Answer: -

Oxidation, Oxygen

Explanation: -

Burning of magnesium gives us magnesium oxide.

The chemical symbol of magnesium is Mg.

The chemical symbol of magnesium oxide is MgO.

So, the balanced chemical equation is

2Mg + O2 – 2 MgO.

We see that the element added is O Oxygen. So, the reaction is oxidation.

In oxidation always, oxygen is the common element involved in all chemical reactions of this kind.

The given reaction can be represented as,

2Mg (s) + O_{2}(g) ---> 2MgO (s)

In this reaction, two elements (Mg and O_{2}) combine to form a single compound, MgO. Hence, this reaction is an example of chemical combination or synthesis. Here as the element Mg is oxidized in the presence of O_{2} to form MgO. This is referred to as combustion reaction. In combustion reaction, elements or compounds react with oxygen to give their respective oxides.

A sample of metal has a mass of 5. 2 g and absorbs 20. 0 j of energy as it is heated from 30. 0°c to 40. 0°c. What is the identi
kiruha [24]

The identity of the metal is copper.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.

Using the formula of specific heat

H = mcdT

Where, H = Heat absorbed

m = mass of the metal

c = specific heat capacity of the metal

dT = temperature change

Putting the values in the equation

20 J = 0.0052 Kg × c × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)

c = 20 J/0.0052 Kg × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)

c = 385 JKg-1°C-1

Thus, the metal is copper.

An experimental spacecraft consumes a special fuel at a rate of 372 L/min. The density of the fuel is 0.730 g/mL and the standar
Karolina [17]

Explanation:

First, we will calculate fuel consumption is as follows.

         372 L/min \times 1000 ml/L \times 0.730 g/ml \times \frac{1}{60} min/s

           = 4526 g/s

Now, we will calculate the power as follows.

        Power = Fuel consumption rate × -enthalpy of combustion

                    = 4526 g/s \times -26.5 kJ/g

                    = 1.19 \times 10^{5} kW

Thus, we can conclude that maximum power (in units of kilowatts) that can be produced by this spacecraft is 1.19 \times 10^{5} kW.

Sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) and oxygen gas (O2) react to form the liquid product of sulfur trioxide (SO3). How much sulfur dioxide
taurus [48]
1) Balanced chemical equation:

2SO2 (g) +  O2 (g) -> 2SO3 (l)

2) Molar ratios

2 mol SO2 : 1 mol O2 : 2 mol SO3

3) Convert 6.00 g O2 to moles

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

number of moles = 6.00 g / 32 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O2.

4) Use proportions with the molar ratios

=> 2 moles SO2 / 1 mol O2 = x / 0.1875 mol O2

=> x = 0.1875 mol O2 * 2 mol SO2 / 1 mol O2 = 0.375 mol SO2.

5) Convert 0.375 mol SO2 to grams

mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass SO2 = 32 g/mol + 2*16 g/mol = 64 g/mol

=> mass SO2 = 0.375 mol * 64 g / mol = 24.0 g

Answer: 24.0 g of SO2 are needed to react completely with 6.00 g O2.
