How do I convert 2.4 x 10^21 formula units of magnesium hydroxide to grams?

Are you taking chemistry at the same time? If not, this is a pretty hard question. 

Facts

1. As a formula unit,  Magnesium Hydroxide has a chemical formula of Mg(OH)2 
2. That means for every Magnesium, there are 2 oxygens and 2 hydrogens
3. The weights of these components are found on a periodic table. Since every periodic table is different, I'm going to approximate the results.

Mg = 24
O  = 16
H = 1
 
4. One mole of anything has 6.02 * 10^23 (in this case) formula units associated with it.

Step One
Find the number of grams in 1 formula unit using the numbers from the periodic table.

1 Mg = 1 * 24 = 24
2 O = 2 * 16 = 32
2 H = 2 * 1 = 2
Total = 58 grams

So 
1 mole of Mg(OH)2 = 58 grams

1 mole / 6.02 * 10 ^23 formula units =  x mole / 2.4 * 10 ^ 21 formula units
Cross multiply

1 mole * 2.4 * 10^21 formula units = x mole * 6.02 * 10^23 formula units.
Divide both sides by 6.02 * 10^23

1 * 2.4 * 10^21 / 6.02 * 10 ^ 23 = x
x = 0.003987 moles

Now do this again for grams
1 mole / 58 grams = 0.003987 mole / x grams  Cross multiply
1 mole * x   = 0.003987 * 58 grams
x = 0.2232 grams <<<<< Answer

Superman needs to save Lois from the clutches of Lex Luthor. After flying for 6 seconds, he is 2430 meters from her. Then at 12
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

2700.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance would be 2700.

Distance traveled between in 6th second and 12th second is 2430-2160=270 meter. That means Superman covered 270 meter in 6 seconds.

So, now if he is moving at the same speed, he should cover the same distance in first 6 seconds which is 270 meter.

Suppose the whole distance is X when time is 0, and after flying for 6 seconds he now is 2430 meter away. It means that he must have covered the distance of X-2430=270.

Finding for X, we gets the full initial distance, when time was 0.

The simple trick is, once we get the distance he has covered in 6 seconds, we can form the equation like subtracting the whole distance- remaining distance equals to covered distance.

What is the slope of this line?​
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

y= 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is 2

The y-intercept is zero because it intersects the origin so you do not need to right that.

Now just put it is slope-intercept form.

Hope you remember me because I just answered your other question 2 minutes ago! LOL :D

Can you please name me the brainiest in both of those answers. Thanks!
