The law of conservation of mass dictates that the total mass of reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products. Thus:
mass(MgO) = mass(Mg) + mass(O)
mass(MgO) = 24 + 16
mass(MgO) = 40 g

The third option is correct.

What is the name of the compound with the formula NH HCO3 ?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Acid ammonium carbonate // Ammonium bicarbonate.

Explanation:

Hello, a 4 is missing in the fist H, thus:

NH_4HCO_3

The presence of the hydrogen between the ammonium and the carbonates characterizes the salt as an acid salt, so you could name it as acid ammonium carbonate or ammonium bicarbonate (similar to the sodium bicarbonate which is NaHCO_3).

Best regards.

When Mrs. Green describes the physical properties of matter she said that physical properties often concern changes in state. On
dedylja [7]

Properties of matter can be broadly classified into two categories:

-Physical properties, these usually involve a change in the state of matter

-Chemical properties. these involve a change in the chemical composition of matter.

Now, physical properties can be further classified as:

Extensive: these depend on the amount of the substance, eg: mass, volume  

Intensive: these do not depend on the amount of the substance eg: density, color, melting point, boiling point

A physical property that does not describe a change in state is color. For example: copper sulfate is a compound which is a blue in color. Thus, color provides information which describes the appearance of matter. In contrast, properties like melting or boiling point suggests a change in the state of the substance.

All of the following statements concerning voltaic cells are true EXCEPT
MissTica

Answer:

oxidation occurs at the cathode.

Explanation:

In a voltaic cell electrons move from anode to cathode. At the anode, species give up electrons. This is an oxidation reaction depicted by the oxidation half equation. At the cathode, species accept electrons and become reduced. This is depicted by the reduction half equation. In summary; in a Voltaic cell, oxidation occurs at the anode while reduction occurs at the cathode.

Periods On the periodic table represent elements
Natalka [10]

Answer:When you look at the periodic table, each row is called a period (Get it? Like PERIODic table.). All of the elements in a period have the same number of atomic orbitals. For example, every element in the top row (the first period) has one orbital for its electrons.
