Answer:

H2SO4(aq) + MgO(s) → H2O(l) + MgSO4(aq)

Explanation:

We must recall that the oxides of metals are bases. These metal oxides can react with dilute acids to yield salt and water.

Bearing that in mind, we want to obtain magnesium sulfate from a metal oxide and dilute acid.

In this case we need magnesium oxide and dilute sulphuric acid. The reaction occurs as follows;

H2SO4(aq) + MgO(s) → H2O(l) + MgSO4(aq)

What is the mass of 0.560 mole of aspirin C9H8O4

Eduardwww [97]

To find mass we use the formula Mass = moles x RFM: Mass = 0.560 x 180 = 100.8g of C₉H₈O₄

Complete the passage about metallic bonding.

Burka [1]

Answer:

some bonds are broken and new ones are formed. Now you are ready to learn more about those bonds. Chemical bonds are attractions between atoms. They are simply attractive forces (between the + nucleus of one atom and the - electrons of a neighboring atom) that hold groups of atoms together and make them function as a unit.

Classify each of the four compounds as a conjugated, isolated, or cumulated diene. Compound A: Two alkenes are joined by a sigma

Lina20 [59]

Explanation:

Conjugated diene is the one that contains alternate double bonds in its structure. That means both the double bonds are separated by a single bond.

Cumulated diene is the one that contains two double bonds on a single atom. This means it has two double bonds continuously.

Isolated double-bonded compound has a single bond isolated by two to three single bonds.

Compound A: Two alkenes are joined by a sigma bond.

For example:

$-CH_2=CH-CH=CH2-$

It is a conjugated diene.

Compound B: Two alkenes are joined by a C H 2 group.

It is a cumulative diene.

Compound C: Two alkenes are joined by C H 2 C H 2.

Then it is an isolated alkene.

Compound D: A cyclohexene has a double bond between carbons 1 and 2. Carbon 3 is an sp 2 carbon that is bonded to another s p 2 carbon with an alkyl substituent.

Hence, compound D is a conjugated diene.
