MgCl2 = 1Mg + 2Cl = 1(24.3) + 2(35.45) = 95.2g/1mole
7.50moles MgCl2 x 95.2g MgCl2 = 714g MgCl2
An element with 8 valence electrons is Neon (Ne).
Ps: Any element under group 18 has 8 valence electrons except for Helium (He).
The oxidation state of Hydrogen in reactant side is 0 and that in product side is +1. Hence the reaction is oxidation.
Answer:
The volume of CO2 produced is 6.0 L (option D)
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Volume of oxygen = 3.0 L
Carbon monoxide = CO = in excess
Step 2: The balanced equation
2 CO (g) + O2 (g) → 2 CO2 (g)
Step 3: Calculate moles of O2
1 mol of gas at STP = 22.4 L
3.0 L = 0.134 moles
Step 3: Calculate moles of CO2
For 2 moles CO we need 1 mol of O2 to produce 2 moles of CO2
For 0.134 moles O2 we'll have 2*0.134 = 0.268 moles CO2
Step 4: Calculate volume of CO2
1 mol = 22.4 L
0.268 mol = 22.4 * 0.268 = 6.0 L
The volume of CO2 produced is 6.0 L
