The mineral magnesite contains magnesium carbonate, MgCO3 (molar mass= 84 g/mol), and other impurities. When a 1.26-g sample of

Leviafan [203]

The answer is 33.33 %

The explanation:

According to the reaction equation:

MgCO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) --> MgCl2(aq) + H20(l) + CO2(g)

we can see that 1 mole of MCO3 will produce → 1 mole of CO2

-Now we need o get number of mole of CO2:

and when we have 0.22 g of CO2, so number of mole = mass / molar mass

moles = 0.22 g / 44 g/mol = 0.005 mole

∴ moles of Mg = moles of CO2 = 0.005 mole

∴ mass of Mg = moles * molar mass

= 0.005 * 84 /mol = 0.42 g

∴ Percent of MgCO3 by mass of Mg = 0.42 g / 1.26 * 100

= 33.33 %

Question 7 of 32

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The primary type of energy change which occurs by turning on the phone will be the conversion of the stored chemical energy of the battery into electrical energy. The chemical energy is also converted into light energy, sound energy and heat energy. With the passage of time, the energy will be changed back into the chemical energy when we will charge the phone again.

Andru [333]

Answer:

1 A

3 main types of bond are

Ionic bond ( formed due to complete transfer of electron between atoms(

Covalent bond ( formed by mutual sharing of electron)

Metalic bond ( present in the metals due to mobile electrons)

1 B bond in CaO is ionic bond formation in attached image

1 C hydrogen bond with nitrogen is covelent NH3 ammonia is formed because a bond between two non metals is expected to be covalent

More their electronegativity difference between hydrogen and nitrogen is less than 1.7 that makes it covalent

You're at the zoo and have a big red 1.80 L helium balloon. The barometric pressure today is 785 mmHg. Then you hear the roar of

fomenos

Answer: The volume of the balloon up there is 6.192 L.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 1.80 L, $P_{1}$ = 785 mm Hg (mm Hg = 0.00131579) = 1.032 atm

$P_{2}$ = 0.300 atm, $V_{2}$ = ?

Formula used to calculate volume is as follows.

$P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}$

Substitute the value into above formula as follows.

$P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}\\1.032 atm \times 1.80 L = 0.300 atm \times V_{2}\\V_{2} = 6.192 L$

Thus, we can conclude that the volume of the balloon up there is 6.192 L.
