Answer:
mass = 242.372 grams

Explanation:
1- getting the number of moles of HCl:
molarity = number of moles of solute / liters of solution
4 = number of moles of HCl / 5.2
number of moles of HCl = 4 * 5.2 = 20.8 moles

2- getting the number moles of magnesium:
From the balanced equation given, we can note that one mole of magnesium is required to react with two moles of HCl. To get the number of moles required to react with 20.8 moles of HCl. we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
1 mole of Mg ...............> 2 moles of HCl
?? moles of Mg ...........> 20.8 moles of HCl
Number of moles of Mg = 20.8 / 2 = 10.4 moles

3- getting the mass of Mg:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Using the periodic table, we can find that the molar mass of magnesium is 24.305 grams.
This means that:
10.4 = mass / 24.305
mass = 24.305 * 10.4
mass = 242.372 grams

Hope this helps :)

How many hydrogen atoms are in 105 g of water?
mel-nik [20]
Moles of water atoms = mass/molecular weight = 105/18 = 5.83 mol. Number of moles of hydrogen in water = 2 x moles of water = 11.66. Number of H atoms in water = moles of hydrogen x 6.02 x 10^23 = 7.019 x 10^24 ~ 7.02 x 10^24 atoms. Hope this helps.

The balanced equation for water is 2 H2 + O2 to 2 H2O. If I have 21.2g of a product , and I started with 5.6 g of H2, how many g
ANTONII [103]

Since 21.2 g H2O was produced, the amount of oxygen that reacted can be obtained using stoichiometry. The balanced equation was given:  2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O and the molar masses of the relevant species are also listed below. Thus, the following equation is used to determine the amount of oxygen consumed.

Molar mass of H2O = 18 g/mol

Molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

21.2 g H20 x 1 mol H2O/ 18 g H2O x 1 mol O2/ 2 mol H2O x 32 g O2/ 1 mol O2 = 18.8444 g O2

<span>We then determine that 18.84 g of O2 reacted to form 21.2 g H2O based on stoichiometry. It is important to note that we do not need to consider the amount of H2 since we can derive the amount of O2 from the product. Additionally, the amount of H2 is in excess in the reaction.</span>

The molecular mass of octane is 114.22 g/mol. What is the mass of 22.05 mol of octane?
strojnjashka [21]
<span>In this item, we are asked to calculate for the mass of 22.05 mole of octane given that its molecular mass is equal to 114.22 g/mol. To answer this item, we simply have to multiply the number of moles with the molecular mass. That is, (114.22 g/mol)(22.05 mol) which is equal to 2518.221 grams. </span>
