Answer:

The balanced chemical equation is given as:

2Mg(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2MgO(s)

Explanation:

When magnesium metal burns in presence of oxygen it gives white color powdered compound called magnesium oxide.

The balanced chemical equation is given as:

2Mg(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2MgO(s)

According to reaction, 2 moles of magnesium metal when reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas it gives 2 moles of  solid magnesium oxide.

How many atoms of phosphorus are in 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22  phosphorus atoms

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

tetraphosphorus decoxide = P4O10

Molar mass of P4O10 = 283.89 g/mol

Mass of P4O10 = 4.5 grams

Number of Avogadro = 6.022 * 10^23 / mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of P4O10

Moles P4O10 = mass P4O10 / molar mass P4O10

Moles P4O10 = 4.5 grams / 283.89 g/mol

Moles = 0.016 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of P

For 1 mol P4O10 we have 4 moles of phosphorus

For 0.016 moles P4O10 we have 4*0.016 = 0.064 moles P

Step 4: Calculate number of P atoms

Number of P atoms = moles P * number of Avogadro

Number of P atoms = 0.064 moles * 6.022*10^23

Number of P atoms = 3.85 * 10^22 atoms

In 4.5 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide we have 3.85 * 10^22  phosphorus atoms

Why is paper chromatography used for amino acids
vivado [14]

<em>Paper chromatography is especially useful in characterizing amino acids. The different amino acids move at differing rates on the paper because of differences in their R groups.</em>

A mileage test is conducted for a new car model. Thirty randomly selected cars are driven for a month and the mileage is measure
Leni [432]

Answer:  (27.81,\ 29.39)

Explanation:

Given : Sample size : n= 30 , it means it is a large sample (n≥ 30), so we use z-test .

Significance level : \alpha: 1-0.95=0.05

Critical value: z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Sample mean : \overline{x}=28.6

Standard deviation : \sigma=2.2

The formula to find the confidence interval is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

i.e. 28.6\pm (1.96)\dfrac{2.2}{\sqrt{30}}

i.e. 28.6\pm 0.787259889321

\approx28.6\pm 0.79=(28.6-0.79,28.6+0.79)=(27.81,\ 29.39)

Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg in the entire population of that car model = (27.81,\ 29.39)
