Answer:

0.74 moles of oxygen are required for combustion

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of oxygen required = ?

Mass of Mg = 35.5 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Mg + O₂         →       2MgO

Number of moles of Mg:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 35.5 g/ 24 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.48 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Mg with oxygen.

                  Mg           :         O₂

                   2             :          1

                 1.48           :        1/2×1.48 = 0.74 mol

0.74 moles of oxygen are required for combustion.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The solubility of the gaseous solute decreases

Explanation:

As we know, pressure decreases with altitude. This means that, at higher altitudes, the pressure is much lower than it is at sea level.

The solubility of a gas increases with increase in pressure and decreases with decrease in pressure.

Hence, in Denver, Colorado where the elevation is about 5,280 feet above sea level, a gaseous solute is less soluble than it is at sea level due to the lower pressure at such high altitude.
