Hey again Matt! I have another question if you can help me! How many grams of magnesium oxide can be produced when 97.2 g Mg rea

ct with 88.5 g O2? The unbalanced equation is: Mg + O2 → MgO I already balanced the equation to 2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

2Mg + O₂ = 2MgO

n(Mg)=m(Mg)/M(Mg)
n(Mg)=97.2g/24.3g/mol=4 mol

n(O₂)=m(O₂)/M(O₂)
n(O₂)=88.5 g/32.0 g/mol=2.77 mol

Mg:O₂  2:1   4:2
4:2.77
the oxygen is in excess
the calculation for the magnesium

n(MgO)=n(Mg)

m(MgO)=n(Mg)*M(MgO)

m(MgO)=4 mol * 40.3 g/mol = 161.2 g

161.2 grams of magnesium oxide can be produced

If you were given a 16.0 ml sample of solution A, describe how you could determine the mass of the sample using only your graph
rewona [7]
A density of the substance is an intrinsic property. Each substance has its own value of density, and it is constant. Since density is equal to mass over volume, a graph of mass vs volume would have a constant slope equal to density. So, it will be a linear graph. The mass is in the y-axis, and the volume is on the x-axis. Locate V = 16 mL on the x-axis, project it upwards until it intersects with the linear graph, then, move towards the left to determine the corresponding y-value, represented by the mass.

Plz help me ppl I don't understand
labwork [276]

The chart is about atomic structure: at the top, the left box is "nucleus" and the right is "electron cloud".


On the left, under nucleus, the two boxes are: "protons" on the right and "neutrons" on the left.  Under proton is elements which is given and under neutrons, it is "isotopes".


On the right, under electron cloud, the next box is "electrons" and then the lower box is "ions".
