Magnesium oxide is 60.3% magnesium by mass. What is the mass fraction of magnesium in magnesium oxide?

Chemistry

devlian [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A. 0.603

Explanation:

Mass fraction of an element in a substance = mass of that element / total mass of the substance.

Mass of magnesium = 24.3g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 16g/mol

Total mass of MgO = 24.3+16 = 40.3g/mol

Hence, the mass fraction of magnesium in Magnesium oxide =

24.3/40.3

= 0.6029

= 0.603

Another way is to divide the percentage by mass of magnesium by 100 i.e. 60.3% = 60.3/100

= 0.603

marta [7]
The nature of the Se-Cl bond in a molecule of selenium chloride (SeCl2) if the electronegativity value of selenium is 2.55 and that of chlorine is 3.16 will be MODERATELY POLAR COVALENT. Because Both of them have a very little difference in their electronegativity.

Where would you have the least weight?​
Vikki [24]

In a place with no gravity

Explanation:

Weight is a force exerted by a body in the presence of gravity.

        Weight = mass x gravity

Without gravity, there is no force of weight. The more the gravity, the more the weight of a body.

A body will experience weightlessness in a place without no gravity.

Therefore, one will experience the least weight in a place without the pull of gravity.
