What happens when magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide?

Chemistry

I am Lyosha [343]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. On the other hand, atomic number of iodine is 53 and its electronic configuration is [Kr]4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{5}.

Hence, there are 7 valence electrons in an iodine atom and there are 2 valence electrons in a magnesium atom.

So, one atom of iodine requires one electron from a donor atom to complete its octet. But one magnesium atom contains two valence electrons.

Therefore, one magnesium atom will combine with two iodine atoms to result in the formation of magnesium iodide as follows.  

            Mg^{2+} + 2I^{-} \rightarrow MgI_{2}

Therefore, an ionic bond will be formed when  magnesium reacts with iodine to make magnesium iodide.

If the molar heat of combustion of liquid benzene at constant volume and 300k is -3272KJ. Calculate the heat of combustion at co
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The heat at constant pressure is -3,275.7413 kJ

Explanation:

The combustion equation is 2C₆H₆ (l) + 15O₂ (g)  → 12CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l)

\Delta n_g = (12 - 15)/2 = -3/2

We have;

\Delta H = \Delta U + \Delta n_g\cdot R\cdot T

Where R and T are constant, and ΔU is given we can write the relationship as follows;

H = U + \Delta n_g\cdot R\cdot T

Where;

H = The heat at constant pressure

U = The heat at constant volume = -3,272 kJ

\Delta n_g = The change in the number of gas molecules per mole

R = The universal gas constant = 8.314 J/(mol·K)

T = The temperature = 300 K

Therefore, we get;

H = -3,272 kJ + (-3/2) mol ×8.314 J/(mol·K) ×300 K) × 1 kJ/(1000 J) = -3,275.7413 kJ

The heat at constant pressure, H = -3,275.7413 kJ.

In the laboratory, a student dilutes 13.5 mL of a 11.6 M hydroiodic acid solution to a total volume of 100.0 mL. What is the con
igomit [66]

Answer: The concentration of the diluted solution is 1.566M.

Explanation:

The dilution equation is presented as this: M_{s} V_{s} =M_{d} V_{d}.

·M= molarity (labeled as M)

·V= volume (labeled as L)

·s= stock solution (what you started with)

·d= diluted solution (what you have after)

Now that we know what each part of the formula symbolizes, we can plug in our data.

11.6M*13.5mL=M_{d} *100mL

We cannot leave it like this because the volumes must be in Liters, not milliliters. To convert this, we divide the milliliters by 1000.

13.5mL/1000=0.0135L     100mL/1000=0.1L

Now that we have the conversions, let's plug them into the equation.

11.6M*0.0135L=M_{d} *0.1L

The only thing that we need to do now is actually solving the answer.

M_{d} =\frac{11.6M*0.0135L}{0.1L}       M_{d} =1.566M

From the work shown above, the answer is 1.566M.

I hope this helps!! Pls mark brainliest :)

The combustion of propane may be described by the chemical equation C 3 H 8 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 3 CO 2 ( g ) + 4 H 2 O ( g ) C
Kipish [7]

Answer: 72 grams of O_2(g) are needed to completely burn 19.7 g C_3H_8(g)

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Putting in the values we get:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{19.7g}{44g/mol}=0.45moles

C_3H_8(g)+5O_2(g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of C_3H_8 requires 5 moles of oxygen

0.45 moles of C_3H_8 require= \frac{5}{1}\times 0.45=2.25 moles of oxygen

Mass of O_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=2.25\times 32=72g

72 grams of O_2(g) are needed to completely burn 19.7 g C_3H_8(g)

What is the oxidation state of Hg in Hg2Cl2?​
Anna [14]

Answer:

+1

Explanation:

Electrochemistry. In oxidation–reduction (redox) reactions, electrons are transferred from one A redox reaction is balanced when the number of electrons lost by the reductant Hg(l)∣Hg2Cl2(s)∣Cl−(aq) ∥ Cd2+(aq)∣Cd(s).

As is evident from the Stock number, mercury has an oxidation state of +1. This makes sense, as chlorine usually has an oxidation state of -1.

Conociendo el volumen de la solución y la masa del soluto y su masa molar, ¿qué concentración es posible determinar
NISA [10]

Answer:

Conociendo el volumen de solución, masa de soluto y su masa molar, es posible determinar: B) Concentración molar

La molaridad es la relación entre el número de moles de soluto y los litros de solución. Más:

M = No moles de solución de soluto / volumen (L)

Y a su vez los moles de soluto se encuentran por:

No moles de soluto = masa soluto / masa molar soluto
