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 many moles are in 5.5 x 10-23 molecules of H2O
masha68 [24]

Answer:

0.914moles

Explanation:

The number of moles in a substance can be got by dividing the number of atoms/molecules/particles by Avagadro's constant (6.02 × 10^23).

That is;

number of moles (n) = number of atom (nA) ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

According to this question, there are 5.5 x 10-23 molecules of H2O

n = 5.5 x 10^23 ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

n = 0.914 × 10^(23-23)

n = 0.914 × 10^0

n = 0.914 × 1

n = 0.914moles

How long would it take for 1.50 mol of water at 100.0 âc to be converted completely into steam if heat were added at a constant
defon
To convert boiling water to steam, that would involve heat of vaporization. The heat of vaporization for water at atmospheric conditions is: ΔHvap = <span>2260 J/g.

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Q = m</span>ΔHvap = (1.50 mol water)(18 g/mol)(<span>2260 J/g) = 61,020 J

Time = Q/Rate = (61,020 J)(1 s/20 J) = 3051 seconds

In order to express the answer in three significant units, let's convert that to minutes.
Time = 3051 s * 1min/30 s = <em>102 min</em></span>
