If 28.4 g of HgO decomposes and produces 2.0 g of oxygen, then 26 grams of Hg is produced.
<h3>
What is decomposition reaction?</h3>
Decomposition reactions occur when complex chemical entities split apart into smaller components. Decomposition reactions often demand energy input.
There are three different kinds of breakdown reactions: thermal, photolytic, and electrolytic.

= 
28g = 
+ 2g
= 26g
Thus, 28.4 g of HgO decomposes and produces 2.0 g of oxygen, then 26 grams of Hg is produced.
X 100%
= 26g/28g
= 93%
thus 93% is the percent by mass of Hg present in HgO.

Answer:
when the red litmus paper is placed in a jar of ammonia, the red litmus paper turns into blue as ammonia gas is basic in nature. It confirms the alkalinity of the ammonia gas.
Answer:
Mass = 6.538 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of zinc hydroxide produced = 9.65 g
Mass of zinc required = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Zn + 2MnO₂ + H₂O → Zn(OH)₂ + Mn₂O₃
Number of moles of zinc hydroxide:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 9.65 g/ 99.42 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.1 mol
now we will compare the moles of zinc and zinc hydroxide,
Zn(OH)₂ : Zn
1 : 1
0.1 : 0.1
Mass of zinc required:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.1 mol × 65.38 g/mol
Mass = 6.538 g
