Mass of Oxygen : 8 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

48g of Magnesium

32g of Oxygen

Required

Mass of Oxygen

Solution

The ratio of Mg and O in MgO :

48 g : 32 g = 3 : 2

Total ratio = 3+2 = 5

So for 20 g MgO, mass of Oxygen :

=2/5 x 20 g

=8 g

%mass O = 32/80 x 100%=40%

mass O in 20 g MgO =

40% x 20 g =8 g

How many particles are in 47.7 g of Magnesium? (Round the average

Lynna [10]

Answer:

1.18 × 10²⁴ particles Mg

General Formulas and Concepts:

Chemistry - Atomic Structure

Reading a Periodic Table
Using Dimensional Analysis
Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

47.7 g Mg

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Avogadro's Number

Molar Mass of Mg - 24.31 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

$47.7 \ g \ Mg(\frac{1 \ mol \ Mg}{24.31 \ g \ Mg} )(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ particles \ Mg}{1 \ mol \ Mg} )$ = 1.18161 × 10²⁴ particles Mg

Step 4: Check

We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.

1.18161 × 10²⁴ particles Mg ≈ 1.18 × 10²⁴ particles Mg
