Given :

2 Mg + O₂ → 2 MgO

To Find :

How many moles of magnesium oxide are formed if you burn a 2.3 mol sample of magnesium ribbon in the air.

Solution :

From given balanced chemical reaction we can see that 2 mole of Magnesium reacts with 1 mole of O₂ to produce 2 mole of MgO.

Since, there is abundance of oxygen in air.

Therefore, 2.3 moles of magnesium will produced 2.3 moles of magnesium oxide.

A hypothetical element consists of 2 isotopes of masses 84.95 amu and 86.95 amu with abundance of 37.1% and 62.9% respectively.
vodka [1.7K]
The average atomic mass of the hypothetical element is the sum of the products of the isotopes and their percentage abundance. For this given,
                 atm = (84.95 amu)(0.371) + (86.95 amu)(0.629) 
                         = 86.208 amu
Thus, the average atomic mass of the element is 86.208 amu.

Which is an acceptable Lewis structure for a diatomic nitrogen molecule?
Marina86 [1]
Answer:
            Acceptable Lewis structure of Diatomic Nitrogen Molecule is as follow,

                                                      :N≡N:

Explanation:
                     
The given lewis structure is acceptable because each nitrogen atom has a complete octet and and the formal charge of each nitrogen atom is zero. So those lewis structures which has zero or least formal charges are said to be more stable and acceptable. The formal charge is calculated is,

Formal Charge  =  # of Valence e⁻s - [# of non-bonded e⁻ + 1/2 # of bonded                                           e⁻]

For N,

Formal Charge  =  5 - [ 2 + 6/2]

Formal Charge  =  5 - [ 2 + 3 ]

Formal Charge  =  5 - 5

Formal Charge  =  0

Same result will come for the second N atom.

Which of the following statements characterizes nuclear fission?
san4es73 [151]

Answer: C) the splitting of a nucleus released a large burst of energy

Explanation:

nuclear fission occurs when an isotope (usually unstable) is hit with particles such as neutrons and splits, resulting in an extreme burst of energy.

for instance, the atomic bombs developed by the U.S. during WWII were products of nuclear fission in which plutonium-239 and uranium-235 were struck by a neutron that hit either nucleus of either isotope. The result was the neclus split into fragments that released huge amounts of energy snd the fission process became self-sustaining as neutrons produced by the splitting nucleus hit other nuclei and produce more fission, causing a chain reaction.

A certain half-reaction has a standard reduction potential E0red = +0.13V . An engineer proposes using this half-reaction at the
Ivan

Answer:

a. 1.23 V

b. No maximum

Explanation:

Required:

a. Is there a minimum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have?

b. Is there a maximum standard reduction potential that the half-reaction used at the cathode of this cell can have?

The standard cell potential (E°cell) is the difference between the standard reduction potential of the cathode and the standard reduction potential of the anode.

E°cell = E°red, cat - E°red, an

If E°cell must be at least 1.10 V (E°cell > 1.10 V),

E°red, cat - E°red, an > 1.10 V

E°red, cat - 0.13V > 1.10 V

E°red, cat > 1.23 V

The minimum standard reduction potential is 1.23 V while there is no maximum standard reduction potential.
