A mixture of MgBr2 and inert material is analyzed to determine the Mg content. First the mixture is dissolved in water. Then all

of the bromide ion is precipitated as AgBr by the addition of an excess of silver nitrate. MgBr2(aq) + 2AgNO3(aq) 2AgBr(s) + Mg(NO3)2(aq) In one experiment, a 0.8107 g sample of the mixture resulted in 1.1739 g of AgBr. Determine the percent (by mass) of Mg in the mixture.

Answer:

9.24% the percent of Mg in the mixture.

Explanation:

Mass of silver bromide = 1.1739 g

Moles of silver bromide = \frac{1.1739 g}{188 g/mol}=0.006244 mol

1 mole of AgBr has 1 mole of bromine atom.Then 0.006244 moles AgBr has 0.006244 mole bromine atom.

Moles of bromine atoms = 0.006244 moles

Magnesium bromide has 2 moles of bromine atom.Then 0.006244 moles of bromine atoms will be in :

\frac{0.006244 mol}{2}=0.003122 mol

Magnesium bromide has 1 mole magnesium atom, then 0.003122 moles of magnesium bromide will have :

1\times 0.003122 mol=0.003122 mol magnesium atom

Mass of 0.003122 moles of magnesium :

0.003122 mol × 24 g/mol = 0.07493 g

Mass of the sample = 0.8107 g

Percentage of magnesium in the sample ;

=\frac{0.07493 g}{0.8107 g}\times 100=9.24\%

9.24% the percent of Mg in the mixture.

What is a climograph
Otrada [13]
A climograph is a dual-purpose graph, showing two different kinds of information. A bar graph shows how much precipitation a given place receives during a period of time. A line graph shows the temperature conditions for the same place during the same period of time.

spayn [35]
PH is the logarithmic measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in solution. In an aqueous system, the lowest possible concentration of H+ ions (least acidic) is 1x 10^-14. The -log(1x10^-14) = pH of 14

Which is true regarding the penetrating power of radiation?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Gamma radiation have the most penetrating power. It can penetrate through human body, aluminum and other metals. It can be stopped by lead. Hence, the radioactive waste are stored in lead container for safety purposes. The beta ray has more penetrating power than the alpha but less than gamma. The beta radiations can be stopped by aluminum. The alpha radiations have least penetrating power and it can be stopped by human hands.
