Magnesium burns with oxygen to give magnesium oxide based on the following reaction:
2M<span>g</span>+<span>O<span>2 </span></span>........> 2Mg<span>O<span>(s)</span></span>+<span>energy
</span>From the periodic table:
molecular mass of magnesium = 24.3 grams
molecular mass of oxygen = 16 grams

From the reaction:
2 x 24.3 = 48.6 grams of magnesium are required to produce 2(24.3+16) = 80.6 grams of magnesium oxide.
We can know the amount of magnesium oxide produced from 8 grams of magnesium by simply doing cross multiplication as follows:
amount of magnesium oxide = (8 x 80.6) / 48.6 = 13.267 grams

Electrolytic cells use electricity to cause a nonspontaneous redox reaction to occur. An electrolytic cell is constructed using
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

At anode - {Br_2}_{(l)}

At cathode - {H_2}_{(g)}

Explanation:

Electrolysis of NaBr:

Water will exist as:

H_2O\rightleftharpoons H^++OH^-

The salt, NaBr will dissociate as:

NaBr\rightarrow Na^++Br^-

At the anode, oxidation takes place, as shown below.

{Br^-}_{(aq)}\rightarrow {Br_2}_{(l)}+2e^-

At the cathode, reduction takes place, as shown below.

2{H^+}_{(aq)}+2e^-\rightarrow {H_2}_{(g)}

Which solution contains the smallest number of moles of sucrose (c12h22o11, molar mass = 342.30 g/mol)? 2,000 ml of a 5.0 × 10–5
Iteru [2.4K]

> 2,000 mL of a 5.0 × 10–5% (w/v) sucrose solution 

5.0 × 10–3 g/mL * 2000 mL * (1 mol / 342.30 g) = 0.0292 mol

<span>
> 2,000 mL of a 5.0 ppm sucrose solution</span>

5 grams / 1000000 mL * 2000 mL* (1 mol / 342.30 g) = 0.0000292 mol

 <span>
> 20 mL of a 5.0 M sucrose solution </span>

5.0 M * 0.020 L = 0.1 mol

 

 

Answer:
