How many grams of magnesium oxide forms when 8.0g of magnesium are burned?

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

What can you tell me about the charge signs on the spheres
bazaltina [42]
<span>A similar thing occurred with the circles as did with the electroscope. When we initially brought the charged pole close to, the bar pulled in the circle since it was of polarization. At that point, once the bar touched the circle, the pole repulsed the circle. This is on the grounds that once the pole and circle touched, the electrons exchanged thus did the protons, consequently leaving the circle with a positive net charge. The nearer the bar is to the circle the more it repulsed, however, it didn't influence the charge of the circle once the circle was touched by the pole.</span>
