an atom will gain or lose electrons to obtain 8 electrons in it's outer shell. In other words, elements want to reach an electron configuration of the nearest noble gas.
Answer:
The equation is balanced
Explanation:
NaCl (aq) + AgNO3(aq) ––> AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)
NaCl (aq) + AgNO3 (aq)
Na = 1 , Cl=1 , Ag = 1 , No3= 1
AgCl (s) + NaNO3 (aq)
Ag = 1 , Cl=1 , Na = 1 , No3= 1
Answer:
Oxygen is in excess.
Explanation:
The coefficients of the balanced equation create a mole ratio that shows the ratio of how many reactants are used up and products are created.
The mole ratio of Mg to O2 in this equation is 2:1, which means that for every two moles of Mg used, there will be 1 mole of O2 used.
If we have 3.00 moles of Mg, we will only need 1.5 moles of oxygen to completely burn the Mg. Therefore, when all 3.00 moles of Mg are used, there will still be some of the 2.20 moles of oxygen remaining.
There are several scales to determine the weight of material. The chose of the weight scale depends upon the size of the material. Like if we have to measure the molecular or atomic weight of a molecule or atom we use gm. Like that for the bigger molecules like proteins the weight of the molecule is expressed by different scale due to its big size. Like that for big material like iron rods etc we generally use kilograms or ton. There are two types of measuring units one is C.G.S. and another is S.I. The S.I. units are more acceptable worldwide than that the C.G.S. units as the digit comes in SI units are easily handable than that of CGS.
Thus metric is used to determine a large weight of compounds which is a SI unit and handable.
