10. When a 13.6 g sample of a compound containing only magnesium and oxygen is decomposed, 5.4 g of oxygen is obtained. What is

the percent of
magnesium in this sample?
• 5.4 g / 13.6 g * 100
• (13.6 g- 5.4g) / 13.6 g x 100
• (13.6 g- 5.4g) x 100
• 5.4g/ (13.6 g-5.4g) x 100

Answer: • (13.6 g- 5.4g) / 13.6 g x 100 is the correct option

Explanation:

Total mass of the sample containing only magnesium and oxygen is 13.6 grams. This means that the sum of the mass of oxygen and the mass of magnesium is 13.6 grams.

On decomposition of the sample, 5.4 g of oxygen is obtained. This means that the mass of magnesium that was obtained would be

13.6 - 5.4 = 8.2 grams of magnesium. Therefore, the percentage of magnesium in this sample would be

8.2/13.6 × 100 = 60.294%

Calculate the weight of 3.491 into 10 to the power 19 molecules of cl2​
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The mass of 3.491 × 10¹⁹ molecules of Cl₂  of Cl₂ is 4.11 × 10⁻³ grams

Explanation:

The number of particles in one mole of a substance id=s given by the Avogadro's number which is approximately 6.023 × 10²³ particles

Therefore, we have;

One mole of Cl₂ gas, which is a compound, contains 6.023 × 10²³ individual molecules of Cl₂

3.491 × 10¹⁹ molecules of Cl₂ is equivalent to (3.491 × 10¹⁹)/(6.023 × 10²³) = 5.796 × 10⁻⁵ moles of Cl₂

The mass of one mole of Cl₂ = 70.906 g/mol

The mass of 5.796 × 10⁻⁵ moles of Cl₂ = 70.906 × 5.796 × 10^(-5) = 4.11 × 10⁻³ grams

Therefore;

The mass of 3.491 × 10¹⁹ molecules of Cl₂  of Cl₂ = 4.11 × 10⁻³ grams.

If 4.50 l of water vapor at 50.2 °c and 0.121 atm reacts with excess iron, how many grams of iron(iii) oxide will be produced?
Flura [38]
When the balanced equation for this reaction is:
2Fe + 3H2O → Fe2O3  +  3H2

and according to the vapour pressure formula:
PV= nRT
when we have P is the vapor pressure of H2O= 0.121 atm
and V is the volume of H2O = 4.5 L
and T in Kelvin = 52.5 +273 = 325.5 K
R= 0.08205 atm-L/g mol-K
So we can get n H2O
So, by substitution:
n H2O = PV/RT
            = (0.121*4.5)/(0.08205 * 325.5) = 0.02038 gmol
n Fe2O3 = 0.02038 * (1Fe2O3/ 3H2O) = 0.00679 gmol
Note: we get (1FeO3/3H2O) ratio from the balanced equation.
we can get the Mass of Fe2O3 from this formula:
Mass = number of moles * molecular weight       
  when we have a molecular weight of Fe2O3 = 159.7
          =  0.00679 * 159.7 = 1.084 g
∴ 1.084 gm of Fe2O3 will produced

Wich describes a characteristic of terminal moraine
stealth61 [152]
I found this....

Supraglacial Moraine

A supraglacial moraine is material on the surface of a glacier. Lateral and medial moraines can be supraglacial moraines. Supraglacial moraines are made up of rocks and earth that have fallen on the glacier from the surrounding landscape. Dust and dirt left by wind and rain become part of supraglacial moraines. Sometimes the supraglacial moraine is so heavy, it blocks the view of the ice river underneath.

If a glacier melts, supraglacial moraine is evenly distributed across a valley.

Ground Moraine

Ground moraines often show up as rolling, strangely shaped land covered in grass or other vegetation. They don’t have the sharp ridges of other moraines. A ground moraine is made of sediment that slowly builds up directly underneath a glacier by tiny streams, or as the result of a glacier meeting hills and valleys in the natural landscape. When a glacier melts, the ground moraine underneath is exposed.

Ground moraines are the most common type of moraine and can be found on every continent.

Terminal Moraine

A terminal moraine is also sometimes called an end moraine. It forms at the very end of a glacier, telling scientists today important information about the glacier and how it moved. At a terminal moraine, all the debris that was scooped up and pushed to the front of the glacier is deposited as a large clump of rocks, soil, and sediment.

Scientists study terminal moraines to see where the glacier flowed and how quickly it moved. Different rocks and minerals are located in specific places in the glacier’s path. If a mineral that is unique to one part of a landscape is present in a terminal moraine, geologists know the glacier must have flowed through that area.
