Answer:

0.022 mol O

Explanation:

Mg3(Si2O5)2(OH)2

We can see that 1 mol of this substance has 3 mol of Mg.

Oxygen altogether  is 5*2 (from (Si2O5)2) + 2(from(OH)2) = 10 +2 = 12

So, 1 mol of this substance has 12 mol oxygen.

So,  1 mol of this substance contains 3 mol Mg and  12 mol O, or

ratio Mg : O = 3 : 12 = 1 : 4

1 mol Mg ----- 4 mol O

0.055 mol Mg ---x mol O

x = 0.055*4/1 = 0.220 mol O

What is the rate constant of a first-order reaction that takes 5.50 minutes for the reactant concentration to drop to half of it
bulgar [2K]
For a first order reaction, the half life is inversely proportional to the rate constant. 
The formula is
half life = ln(2)/k = 0.693/k
where k is the rate constant

t = 5.50 minutes

k = ln(2)/5.50 = 0.126 min^-1

Your rate constant is 0.126 min^-1.
