Balance the equation for magnasuin and oxygen to yield magnasuimoxide
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

2Mg + O₂  →  2MgO

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Mg + O₂  →  MgO

Balanced chemical equation:

2Mg + O₂  →  2MgO

The balanced equation s given above and it completely follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Steps to balanced the equation:

Step 1:

Mg + O₂  →  MgO

Mg = 1         Mg = 1

O = 2           O = 1

Step 2:

2Mg + O₂  →  MgO

Mg = 2         Mg = 1

O = 2           O = 1

Step 3:

2Mg + O₂  →  2MgO

Mg = 2         Mg = 2

O = 2           O = 2

You have a solution of 600 mg of caffeine dissolved in 100 mL of water. The partition coefficient for aqueous caffeine extracted
klio [65]

Answer:

159 mg caffeine is being extracted in 60 mL dichloromethane

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of caffeine in 100 mL of water =  600 mg

Volume of the water = 100 mL

Partition co-efficient (K) = 4.6

mass of caffeine extracted = ??? (unknown)

The portion of the DCM = 60 mL

Partial co-efficient (K) = \frac{C_1}{C_2}

where; C_1= solubility of compound in the organic solvent and C_2 = solubility in aqueous water.

So; we can represent our data as:

K=(\frac{A_{(g)}}{60mL} ) ÷ (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL} )

Since one part of the portion is A and the other part is B

A+B = 60 mL

A+B = 0.60

A= 0.60 - B

4.6=(\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} ) ÷ (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL})

4.6 = \frac{(\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} )}{(\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL})}

4.6 × (\frac{B_{(mg)}}{100mL}) = (\frac{0.6-B(mg)}{60mL} )

4.6 B *\frac{60}{100} = 0.6 - B

2.76 B = 0.6 - B

2.76 + B = 0.6

3.76 B = 0.6

B = \frac{0.6}{3.76}

B = 0.159 g

B = 159 mg

∴ 159 mg caffeine is being extracted from the 100 mL of water containing 600 mg of caffeine with one portion of in 60 mL dichloromethane.

This part insulates the reaction chamber from the transfer of heat to or from the surrounding environment. this part contains a
Masja [62]

The amount of heat transferred in and out of the system is measured by calorimetry. The thermometer in the calorimeter is used to measure the temperature.

<h3>What are the parts of the calorimetry device?</h3>

The thermometer (A) is a device used to measure the final and the initial temperature of the water or any other liquid in a system. A metal vessel is a place where the reaction mixture is present.

In-vessel (B), water, and metal are placed before the beginning of the experiment. The styrofoam cup or the outer metal vessel (C) insulates the instrument, from regulating the heat transformation.

Therefore, part A measures the temperature of the reaction mixture.
