Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter A. 1

Explanation:

Unbalanced chemical reaction

                      Mg  +  O₂  ⇒  MgO

               Reactants    Elements    Products

                       1            Magnesium       1

                       2           Oxygen              1

Balanced chemical reaction

                      2Mg  +  O₂  ⇒  2MgO

              Reactants    Elements    Products

                       2           Magnesium       2

                       2           Oxygen             2

Conclusion

The coefficients of the balanced equation are 2, 1, 2

Answer:

The coefficient for oxygen, in this equation is 1

Explanation:

Step 1: The unbalanced equation

2Mg + O2 → MgO

Step 2: Balancing the equation

2Mg + O2 → MgO

On the left side we have 2x Mg, on the right side we have 1x Mg(in MgO).

To balance the amount of Mg we have to multiply MgO by 2.

Now the amount of O is on both sides also equal.

The equation is balanced.

2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

The coefficient for oxygen, in this equation is 1

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of 65.8 grams of water from 31.5ºC to 46.9ºC?
vodomira [7]

Answer: 1,013.32 cal × 4.18 J/cal = 4,235.68 J

Explanation:

1) Data:

Water ⇒ C = 1 cal/g°C

m = 65.8 g

Ti = 31.5°C

Tf = 36.9°C

Heat, Q = ?

2) Formula:

Q = mCΔT

3) Calculations:

Q = 65.8g × 1 cal/g°C × (46.9°C - 31.5°C) = 1,013.2 cal

4) You can convert from calories to Joules using the conversion factor:

1 cal = 4.18 J

⇒ 1,013.32 cal × 4.18 J/cal = 4,235.68 J

ella [17]

Answer: The compound in medicines should be non polar.  

It is important for any drug to be able to dissolve itself through the cell membrane which consists of a lipid bi-layer, in order to diffuse in the body and circulate biologically, performing its function.

Non polar compounds are lipid soluble and therefore can dissolve in the lipid layers.

Polar compounds are water soluble and fail to cross the cell membrane.

Therefore scientists need to be sure of using compounds that are non polar in nature so they pass through the cell membrane and enter into the blood circulation of the body and perform its due function.
