How many magnesium ions are present in 5.36 x 10-4 mol of magnesium iodide?
WARRIOR [948]
Magnesium iodide = MgI₂
mass of Mg = 24.3g
mass of I = 126.9g
mass of MgI₂ = 24.3 + 2*126.9 = 278.1g = 1 mole

in 5.36x10⁻⁴ mole of MgI₂ ---------------- x g of Mg
in 1 mole of MgI₂ ------------------------------ 1 mole of Mg
x = 5.36x10⁻⁴ moles of Mg = 0.000536 moles of Mg

answer: we've 0.000536 moles of Mg (magnesium ions) in 5.36x10⁻⁴ moles of MgI₂

What is hydrogen role in nuclear fusion?
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Fusion powers the Sun and stars as hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium, and matter is converted into energy. Hydrogen, heated to very high temperatures changes from a gas to a plasma in which the negatively-charged electrons are separated from the positively-charged atomic nuclei (ions).

I hope it's helpful!
