You heat 51 grams of magnesium over a Bunsen burner for several minutes until it reacts with oxygen in the air. Then you weigh t

he resulting product and see that it is now 53 grams. How does this happen without breaking the Law of Conservation of Mass?

Answer:

    The mass was there all along, it was just in the air. The weight of the oxygen from the air is not weighed in the beginning, only at the end as part of the product, making it seem like there is a total mass change.

Select the correct electron configuration for Vanadium. (Atomic Number 23) 1s22s62p33s 23p44s23d5 1s22s22p63s 23p84s23d1 1s22s22
True [87]
The  correct  electronic configuration of  vanadium  23  is

 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^3

This  electronic configuration  is correct because it obeys  the Aufbau principle which  state  that  electrons  fill the atomic  orbital  of  the lowest  energy  before  occupying the higher level. S  orbital  can occupy a total of  2  electrons, p orbital  can  occupy a total of  6  electrons  while d orbital can occupy a total of  10 electrons. in the  electronic configuration above  an  s orbital  is filled  before p orbital  while  the  p  orbital is  filled before  the d orbital .

Which solution will have the highest ph? the ka of hclo is 3.8 × 10−8.
Ilya [14]
The one with the highest pH would be a solution with 100 mL of water and also 20 mL of 0.1 M NaOH is added. Solutions without buffers would have the highest pH since the resistance to change is very low. Hope this answers the question.

These could all go either way, hardness and other special properties are what I'm guessing would be the most accurate in determining the kind of material.
luster, cleavage, streak, and color can all be affected by other factors. but I guess cleavage would also be accurate. so I guess hardness special properties and cleavage would be the most reliable.
