A 10 gram sample of iron reacts with oxygen to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide. How many grams of oxygen reacted?

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8.2 \ grams}}

Explanation:

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of the products must equal the mass of the reactants.

  • mass products = mass reactants

In this problem, the reaction is:

iron + oxygen = ferric \ oxygen

  • The reactants are iron and oxygen. We know the mass of the iron sample is 10 grams.
  • The product is ferric oxide. The mass of the ferric oxide sample is 18.2 grams.

10 \ g + oxygen=18.2 \ g

We want to find how many grams of oxygen reacted. We have to get the oxygen by itself. 10 is being added to oxygen. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

10 \ g - 10 \ g+ oxygen = 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g

oxygen= 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g

oxygen= 8.2 \ g \\

<u>8.2 grams of oxygen </u>reacted with 10 grams of iron to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide.

What is meant by the octet rule? What electrons are involved? How does this affect how elements bond?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects the observation that main group elements tend to bond in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas

An increase in the atomic number________the atomic radius moving from left to right across a period.
frez [133]

Answer:

decrease

Explanation:

Atomic radius :

It is the distance from the center of nucleus to the outer most electronic shell.

Trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required

CORO<br> Name three ways that scientists can ensure their results<br> are reliable
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Reliability. When a scientist repeats an experiment with a different group of people or a different batch of the same chemicals and gets very similar results then those results are said to be reliable. Reliability is measured by a percentage – if you get exactly the same results every time then they are 100% reliable.

Explanation:

Sorry, I only got one way.

If you performed this experiment using mgcl2 as the solute would the molar concentration of mgcl2 that is isotonic to the potato
Mama L [17]
The answer to this question would be: lower molar concentration

Osmotic pressure is influenced by the number of ions and the concentration of the molecule in the solution. In NaCl, the molecule will split into 1 Na+ ion and 1 Cl- ion which results in 2 ions per compound. In MgCl2, the compound will split into 1 Mg2+ ion and 2 Cl- ion which results in 3 ions. Therefore, the osmotic pressure of MgCl2 will be 3/2 times of NaCl.
MgCl2 will need less concentration to achieve same osmotic pressure as NaCl. If the MgCl2 solution is isotonic with NaCl, the concentration of MgCl2 would be lower than NaCl
