When energy is needed in order for the reaction to happen, then that reaction is known as endotermic. When the reaction has as a result energy then it is exotermic. An example of an endotermic reaction would be photosynthesis, for an exotermic: combustion.
Wouldn’t it be “B”? Can’t soemthing still get corroded under paint?
The reaction for the formation of MgO(s):
2 Mg (s) + O2(g) -à
2MgO(s) ΔH = -601.24
kJ/mol
<span>The enthalpy
information is taken from: http://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/inchi?ID=C1309484&Mask=2</span>
From the equation and with an enthalpy change of -231 kJ:
-231 kJ * 2 mol Mg * (1/-601.24 kJ/mol) = 0.76841 mol Mg
Then, with the molar mass of MgO = 40.3,
0.76841 mol Mg *(2 mol MgO/2 mol Mg)* 40.3 g/mol MgO = <span>30.967 g MgO</span>
