Answer is: the mass of the oxygen is 2.37 grams.

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO.

m(Mg) = 3.6 g; mass of magnesium.

n(Mg) = m(Mg) ÷ M(Mg).

n(Mg) = 3.6 g ÷ 24.3 g/mol

n(Mg) = 0.149 mol.; amount of the magnesium.

n(O₂) = ?

From chemical reaction: n(Mg) : n(O₂) = 2 : 1.

n(O₂) = n(Mg) ÷ 2.

n(O₂) = 0.149mol ÷ 2.

n(O₂) = 0.075 mol; amount of the oxygen.

m(O₂) = m(O₂) · M(O₂).

m(O₂) = 0.075 mol · 32 g/mol.

m(O₂) = 2.37 g; mass of the oxygen.

Answer:

11.9 g of nitrogen monoxide

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 6.75 g of NH₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of NH₃ = 6.75 g

Molar mass of NH₃ = 14 + (3×1)

= 14 + 3

= 17 g/mol

Mole of NH₃ =?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of NH₃ = 6.75 / 17

Mole of NH₃ = 0.397 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of NO produced by the reaction of 0.397 mole of NH₃. This can be obtained as follow:

4NH₃ + 5O₂ —> 4NO + 6H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of NH₃ reacted to produce 4 moles of NO.

Therefore, 0.397 mole of NH₃ will also react to produce 0.397 mole of NO.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 0.397 mole of NO. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of NO = 0.397 mole

Molar mass of NO = 14 + 16 = 30 g/mol

Mass of NO =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of NO = 0.397 × 30

Mass of NO = 11.9 g

Thus, the mass of NO produced is 11.9 g

<h2>Answer:0.5 moles,1 mole</h2>

Explanation:

$Sr(NO_{3})_{2}$ is readily soluble in water.

$Sr(NO_{3})_{2}$ dissolves in water to give $Sr^{2+}$ ions and $NO_{3}^{-}$ ions.

The reaction is

$Sr(NO_{3})_{2}$ → $Sr^{2+}$ $+2NO_{3}^{-}$

So, $1$ mole of $Sr(NO_{3})_{2}$ gives $1$ mole of $Sr^{2+}$ and $2$ moles of $NO_{3}^{-}$ .

So, $0.5$ moles of $Sr(NO_{3})_{2}$ gives $0.5$ moles of $Sr^{2+}$ and $1$ mole of $NO_{3}^{-}$ .
