<u>Answer:</u> The given chemical reaction can be classified as synthesis and exothermic.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A synthesis reaction is defined as the reaction where two small chemical species combine in their elemental state to form a single large chemical species.

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which heat is released by the reaction. The heat is written on the product side of the reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

Mg(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow MgO(s)+\text{heat}

The above chemical reaction is a type of synthesis and exothermic as two substances in their elemental state are combining. Also, heat is getting released in the reaction.

Hence, the given chemical reaction can be classified as synthesis and exothermic.

How many moles of solute would be dissolved in .500 kg of solvent to make a 2.50 molal NaOH solution?
Tom [10]

Molality is a measure of concentration that relates the moles of solute to the kilograms of solvent, it is described by the following equation:

Molality=\frac{molSolute}{kgSolvent}

We are given the molality(2.50m) and kilograms of solvent(0.500kg), so we solve for moles of solute from the equation:

molSolute=Molality\times kgSolvent\begin{gathered} molSolute=2.50m\times0.500kg \\ molSolute=1.25molSolute \end{gathered}

To make a 2.50molal NaOH solution would be needed 1.25moles of solute

Answer: 1.25 moles
