Answer: A

wind is not an "external force" that takes place in a rocks cycle

"The rock cycle is a basic concept in geology that describes transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous. Each rock type is altered when it is forced out of its equilibrium conditions."

hope this helps

Catalyst

Hoochie [10]

a. volume of NO : 41.785 L

b. mass of H2O : 18 g

c. volume of O2 : 9.52 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction

4 NH₃ (g) + 5 O2 (g) → 4 NO (g) + 6 H2O (l)

Required

a. volume of NO

b. mass of H2O

c. volume of O2

Solution

Assume reactants at STP(0 C, 1 atm)

Products at 1000 C (1273 K)and 1 atm

a. mol ratio NO : O2 from equation : 4 : 5, so mo NO :

$\tt \dfrac{4}{5}\times 0.5=0.4$

volume NO at 1273 K and 1 atm

$\tt V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}=\dfrac{0.4\times 0.08206\times 1273}{1}=41.785~L$

b. 15 L NH3 at STP ( 1mol = 22.4 L)

$\tt \dfrac{15}{22.4}=0.67~mol$

mol ratio NH3 : H2O from equation : 4 : 6, so mol H2O :

$\tt \dfrac{6}{4}\times 0.67=1$

mass H2O(MW = 18 g/mol) :

$\tt mass=mol\times MW=1\times 18=18~g$

c. mol NO at 1273 K and 1 atm :

$\tt n=\dfrac{PV}{RT}=\dfrac{1\times 35.5}{0.08206\times 1273}=0.34$

mol ratio of NO : O2 = 4 : 5, so mol O2 :

$\tt \dfrac{5}{4}\times 0.34=0.425$

Volume O2 at STP :

$\tt 0.425\times 22.4=9.52~L$

Why the is ratio of magnesium ions to chloride ions in MgCl2 is 1:2?

Monica [59]

You should read up on Proust's law, better known as the Law of Definite Proportions. This is a chemical law that defines your question more generally, on why the ratio of elements and ions are always fixed.

Basically, this compound Magnesium(II) Chloride is MgCl2 because it has the same number of protons, neutrons, and electrons all the way. This defines the properties of the compound or atom.
