1.386 g of Mg ribbon combusts to form 2.309 g of oxide product. The mass percent of oxygen in the oxide is 40.0 %.
Let's consider the reaction for the combustion of Mg.
Mg + 1/2 O₂ ⇒ MgO
1.386 g of Mg combusts to form 2.309 g of MgO. We want to determine the mass of oxygen in MgO. According to Lavoisier's law of conservation of mass, matter is not created nor destroyed over the course of a chemical reaction. Then, the mass of Mg in the reactants is equal to the mass of Mg in MgO. The mass of the magnesium oxide is the sum of the masses of magnesium and oxygen. The <u>mass of oxygen in the oxide</u> is:

We can calculate the mass percent of O in MgO using the following expression.

Answer:
156 Hydrogen atoms
Explanation:
<u>Any acyclic alkane has a molecular formula that can be expressed as</u>:
CₙH₂ₙ₊₂
Where <em>n</em> is any integer and the number of carbon atoms. For example, Propane has 3 carbon atoms, this means it would have [2*3+2] 8 hydrogen atoms, resulting with a formula of C₃H₈.
An acyclic alkane with 77 carbon atoms would thus have:
2*77 + 2 = 156 hydrogen atoms

Answer:
Al is oxidized while Ag is reduced.
Explanation:
The complete molecular equation is;
3Ag2S + 2Al --> 6Ag + Al2S3
Oxidation half equation;
2Al ------> 2Al^3+ + 6e
Reduction half equation;
6Ag^+ + 6e -------> 6Ag
Overall redox reaction equation;
2Al + 6Ag^+ ----->2Al^3+ + 6Ag
Hence; Al is oxidized while Ag is reduced.
