Susanna was hiking in the mountains, and she discovered an interesting, shiny rock. She wondered if this sample was actually a r

ock or if it might be a mineral. As she observed it more closely, she noted that it was solid and naturally occurring, with a definite chemical composition. The sample did not appear to have a crystal structure.
Could Susanna have found a mineral? Explain why or why not.
please help me out

Consider the reaction between ozone and a metal cation, m2+, to form the metal oxide, mo2, and dioxygen: o3 + m2+(aq) + h2o(l) →
Mandarinka [93]
O3 + M2+(aq) + H2O(l) => O2(g) + MO2(s) + 2 H+
Eo(cell) = Eo(O3/O2) - Eo(MO2/M2+)
0.44 = 2.07 - Eo(MO2/M2+)
Eo(MO2/M2+) = 1.59 V

Why did the Mt. Pinatubo eruption result in global temperatures dropping almost two degrees?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

In the case of Mount Pinatubo, the result was a measurable cooling of the Earth's surface for a period of almost two years. Because they scatter and absorb incoming sunlight, aerosol particles exert a cooling effect on the Earth's surface.

When 0.313 g of Mg is heated strongly in a nitrogen (N2) atmosphere, a chemical reaction occurs. The product of the reaction wei
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Mg₃N₂ (magnesium nitride)

Explanation:

M(total) = M(mg) + M (n)

M (n) = M(total) -  M(mg)

        = 0.433g - 0.313g

        = 0.12g

mole (N) =  0.12g / 14.0067 g/mol

              = 0.008567

mole Mg = 0.313g / 24.3050 g/mol

              = 0.012878

Mg = 0.012878 / 0.008567

     = 1.5

N = 0.008567 / 0.008567

   = 1

multiply by 2 to get whole numbers

Mg = 1.5 × 2 = 3

N = 1  × 2 = 2

Mg₃N₂ (magnesium nitride)
