<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[RxN - Balanced] 2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO
[Given] 5.8332 g Mg
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
[RxN] 2 mol Mg = 2 mol MgO
Molar Mass of Mg - 24.31 g/mol
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of MgO - 24.31 + 16.00 = 40.31 g/mol

9.67241 g MgO ≈ 9.6724 g MgO
Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Molar mass is defined as the sum of masses of all the atoms present in a compound.
For example, atomic mass of barium is 137.32 g/mol and atomic mass of bromine is 79.90 g/mol.
Therefore, molar mass of will be as follows.
Molar mass = atomic mass of Ba +
= 137.32 g/mol +
= 297.12 g/mol
Hence, we can conclude that molar mass of [tex]BaBr_{2}[tex] is 297.12 g/mol.
