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%

Tollens’ test, also known as silver-mirror test, is a qualitative laboratory test used to distinguish between an aldehyde and a
Makovka662 [10]

Explanation:

Tollens' reagent is prepared by using two-step process : -

Step 1:

Silver oxide is formed by mixing aqueous silver nitrate with base like sodium hydroxide. The reaction is shown below as:

AgNO_3 + NaOH &\rightarrow AgOH + NHO_3 \nonumber \\ 2AgOH &\rightarrow Ag_2O + H_2O

Step 2

Ammonia solution is drop-wise added until all the silver oxide dissolves to form the reagent. The reaction is shown below as:

Ag_2O + 4NH_3 + H_2O \rightarrow 2Ag(NH_3)_2^+ + 2OH^-

Which choice best describes what would happen if a cube with a density of 0.2 g/mL were placed in a container of water?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

A. It would float with about 80% of the cube below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Explanation:

The choice that best describes what happens to cube of the given density value is that it would float with about 80% of the cube would be below the surface of the water and 20% above the surface.

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. The more mass a body has relative to volume, the great it's density. In short, density is directly proportional to mass and inversely related to volume.

The density of water is 1g/mL

If the density of the cube were to be the same with that of water, the substance will just mix up with water .

Here the density is less than that of water.

The density is 0.2g/mL

Therefore, 20% will stay afloat and 80% will be below the surface of the water.

How many moles of AgCl2 are in 5.78x1024 molecules of AgCl2?
Zolol [24]

Answer:

9.6 mol AgCl2

Explanation:

You have to use Avogadro's number: 6.023 x 10^23

5.78 x 10^24 molecules (1 mol AgCl2/ 6.023 x 10^23 molecules) =9.6 mol AgCl2
