A possible cause of a large percentage of error in an
experiment where MgO is produced from the combustion of magnesium would be not all of the Mg has
completely reacted. <span>

Answer:
0.70 J/g.°C
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Mass of graphite (m): 402 g
- Heat absorbed (Q): 1136 J
- Initial temperature: 26°C
- Specific heat of graphite (c): ?
Step 2: Calculate the specific heat of graphite
We will use the following expression.
Q = c × m × ΔT
c = Q / m × ΔT
c = 1136 J / 402 g × (30°C - 26°C)
c = 0.70 J/g.°C
We can write the balanced equation for the synthesis reaction as
H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g)
We use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and hydrogen gas H2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2 needed:
mass of H2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol H2 / 2 mol HCl) *
(2.02 g H2 / 1 mol H2)
= 4.056 g H2
We also use the molar masses of hydrogen chloride gas HCl and chlorine gas CL2 to calculate for the mass of hydrogen gas H2:
mass of CL2 = 146.4 g HCl *(1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl) * (1 mol Cl2 / 2 mol HCl) *
(70.91 g Cl2 / 1 mol Cl2)
= 142.4 g Cl2
Therefore, we need 4.056 grams of hydrogen gas and 142.4 grams of chlorine gas to produce 146.4 grams of hydrogen chloride gas.
Q1. They are highly reactive. Q2. High reactivity, nonmetallic. Q3. Oxygen has an ion charge of -2. Q4. LiCl I believe. Q5. How electrons are shared. Q6 1. Q7. Share 2 valence electrons, I believe.
Answer:
Hey there!
False. The growth rate is actually the birth rate minus the death rates.
