Let the ratio of grams of hydrogen per gram of carbon in methane be M, we know that:
M = 0.3357 g / 1 g
Next, lets represent the grams of hydrogen per gram of carbon in ethane be E. The final piece of information we have is:
M / E = 4/3
If we cross multiply,
3M = 4E
Now, substituting the value of M from earlier and solving for E,
E = (3 * 0.3357) / 4
E = 0.2518
There are 0.2518 grams of hydrogen per gram of carbon in ethane.

This is the complete question:
Atoms of which element react spontaneously with Mg2+(aq)? (1)chromium
(2)barium
(3)iron
(4)zinc
Answer: option 2. barium.
Explanation.
1) Mg ²⁺ (aq) is the aquous cation of the metal Mg.
2) Only a metal more reactive than Mg will be able to exchange with it the oxidation states.
3) Mg is an earth alkalyne metal (group 2 of the periodic table). The metals from this group are more reactive than the metals in the groups to its right: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, ... Only the alkalyne metals (those in group 1) are more reactive than the earth alkalyne metals.
4) Of the list, barium is the only alkalyne metal, so it is more reactive than Mg and will be able to deliver 2 electrons to transform the cations Mg²⁺ into Mg while the very Ba will become Ba²⁺.
5) Chromium, iron and zinc are transition metals, so less metallic (reactive) than Mg.
Answer:
The correct answer is - hard water reacts to form the calcium or magnesium salt of the organic acid of the soap.
Explanation:
Soaps are made up of fatty acids or oils by treating with strong alkali and are salts of sodium and potassium. Hard water, on the other hand, has a high concentration of minerals in comparison to soft water. When hard water and soap are mixed together the salts of the minerals like Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions present in hard water react with fatty acids of the soap.
The sodium salts are changed to the salts of calcium and magnesium which are precipitated to an insoluble substance. The insoluble salts of the calcium or magnesium dirt stick on the clothes thus cleaning ability of soap is reduced.
As the temperature is lowered matter is more likely to exist in the solid state
