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.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

The magnesium reacted with the oxygen in the air.

Explanation:

For argument’s sake, let’s say that the mass of magnesium oxide was 3 g and that of the oxide was 5 g.  

The reaction was

            magnesium + oxygen ⟶ magnesium oxide

Mass:           3 g                                          5 g

Mass of oxygen = 5 g – 3 g = 2 g

The 3 g of magnesium must have combined with 2 g of oxygen to form 5 g of magnesium oxide.

Which of the following best defines a mineral and a rock?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

a. In a mineral the constituent atoms are bonded in a regular, repetitive, internal structure; a rock is a lithified or consolidated aggregate of different mineral grains.

Explanation:

In the internal structure of a mineral the atoms are arranged in an orderly manner, forming shapes that are repeated throughout the structure.

Rocks are a mixture of other materials consolidated in one, which include minerals.

So the minerals have a defined internal structure with atoms in a regular and repeated configuration, while a rock, being a consolidated aggregate, combination of other materials including minerals, does not have a structure that defined

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Atoms have protons and neutrons in the center, making the nucleus, while the electrons orbit the nucleus. The modern atomic theory states that atoms of one element are the same, while atoms of different elements are different.Atoms consist of three basic particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. The nucleus (center) of the atom contains the protons (positively charged) and the neutrons (no charge). The outermost regions of the atom are called electron shells and contain the electrons (negatively charged).
