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

Chemistry
1 answer:
AfilCa [17]3 years ago
7 0
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 are the two types of collisions? What is the difference between them? Types: a. Types: b. Compare and contrast the two type
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The two types of collisions are :

Type a)

<u>Elastic collision</u>

Type b)

<u>Inelastic collision</u>

Explanation:

Collision : It is the event when two bodies collide with each other for small period of time.

During collision , the bodies exert force to each other.

Example :

When boxer hits with punches .

When bat hits the ball in cricket match.

So, collision is short duration interaction of two objects. When the objects collides , there is  change in their velocity.

All collision follow law of conservation of momentum . Their type is decided by , whether they follow conservation of energy also.

<u>Compare and contrast the two types</u>

a) Elastic collision : Those collision in which no loss or gain of kinetic energy will occur. They follow conservation of kinetic energy. Example : ideal gaseous molecule

b) Inelastic collision : Those collision in which Change in kinetic energy will occur. They do not follow conservation of kinetic energy.Almost all conservation are inelastic.

Here Kinetic energy get converted into other form of energy.

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

Ver explicacion

Explanation:

Como se mencionó en la pregunta, un catalizador aumenta la velocidad de una reacción pero él mismo no participa en la reacción.

La descomposición del peróxido de hidrógeno se muestra mediante la ecuación;

2H2O2 (l) ------> 2H2O (l) + O2 (g)

La enzima involucrada en el proceso es la catalasa.
