Chemistry

5 0

Explanation:

The balanced equation of the reaction is given as;

Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2 HBr (aq) → MgBr2 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)

1. How many grams of MgBr2 will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?

From the reaction;

2 mol of HBr produces 1 mol of  MgBr2

Converting to masses using;

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Molar mass of HBr = 80.91 g/mol

Molar mass of MgBr2 = 184.113 g/mol

This means;

(2 * 80.91 = 161.82g) of HBr produces (1 * 184.113 = 184.113g) MgBr2

18.3g would produce x

161.82 = 184.113

18.3 = x

x = (184.113 * 18.3 ) / 161.82 = 20.8 g

2. How many moles of H2O will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?

Converting the mass to mol;

Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 18.3 / 80.91 = 0.226 mol

From the reaction;

2 mol of HBr produces 2 mol of H2O

0.226 mol would produce x

2 =2

0.226 = x

x = 0.226 * 2 / 2 = 0.226 mol

3. How many grams of Mg(OH)2 are needed to completely react with 18.3 grams of HBr?

From the reaction;

2 mol of HBr reacts with 1 mol of Mg(OH)2

18.3g of HBr =  0.226 mol

2 = 1

0.226 = x

x = 0.226 * 1 /2

x = 0.113 mol

<span>Ionic compounds are chemical compounds in which ions are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bonds. They have a high melting and boiling point, and they have a high hardness and are very brittle. The cations and anions are stuck together in a sense. So in this case, sodium (Na) is attracted to Chlorine (Cl).</span>
