<u>Given:</u>
Mass of MgBr2 = 0.500 g
<u>To determine:</u>
Number of anions in 0.500 g MgBr2
<u>Explanation:</u>
Molar mass of MgBr2 = 24 + 2 (80) = 184 g/mol
Moles of MgBr2 = 0.500 g/184 g.mol-1 = 0.00271 moles
Based on stoichiometry-
1 mole of MgBr2 has 1 mole of Mg2+ cations and 2 moles of Br- anions
Therefore, 0.00271 moles of MgBr2 will have: 2 * 0.00271 = 0.00542 moles of Br-
Now,
1 mole of Br- contains 6.023 * 10²³ anions
0.00542 moles of Br- contain: 0.00542 * 6.023*10²³ = 3.264*10²¹ anions
Ans: There are 3.264*10²¹ anions in 0.5 g of MgBr2
Answer:
The correct row is B.
Explanation:
The formation of the magnesium ion, Mg²⁺, comes from the removal of 2 electrons from the valence shell of the magnesium atom.<em> </em>Since the remotion is of electrons, the nucleus of the atom remains the same, so the number of protons and the number of neutrons does not change.<em> </em>
If the number of proton change, then the atom also change, since the identity of an atom is related to the atomic number which is the same to the proton number.
Now, if the number of neutrons changes, then we would be in the presence of an isotope of the magnesium atom.
Therefore, the correct row is B.
