Molar mass:
O2 = 16 x 2 = 32.0 g/mol Mg = 24 g/mol
<span>2 Mg(s) + O2(g) --->2 MgO(s)
</span>
2 x 24.0 g Mg -------------> 32 g O2
5.00 g Mg -----------------> ( mass of O2)
mass of O2 = 5.00 x 32 / 2 x 24.0
mass of O2 = 160 / 48
= 3.33 g of O2
hope this helps!
To allow for equations and problems in chemistry to be as precise as possible. When experiments are conducted, and even if the number is the slightest bit off, the problem or experiment could be impacted very negatively. It allows for complete accuracy to ensure nothing goes wrong, since chemistry is very touchy and risky when dealing with extremely unsafe elements.
If it is shown as ∆H , then it means that a specific chemical reaction is undergoing heat in Kelvin(K). If it is shown as ∆H° , then it means that a specific chemical reaction is undergoing heat in Celsius(C⁰).
Hope this is the answer you are looking for mate!
If it is correct then please mark my answer as the brailiest! :)
You're going to divide the mass of chlorine within the compound by the mass of the compound, and then multiply the result by 100 to get the answer
