Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1. Word equation:</u>
- <em>mercury(II) oxide → mercury + oxygen </em>
<u>2. Balanced molecular equation:</u>
<u>3. Mole ratio</u>
Write the ratio of the coefficients of the substances that are object of the problem:

<u>4. Calculate the number of moles of O₂(g)</u>
Use the equation for ideal gases:

<u>5. Calculate the number of moles of HgO</u>

<u>6. Convert to mass</u>
- mass = # moles × molar mass
- molar mass of HgO: 216.591g/mol
- mass = 0.315mol × 216.591g/mol = 68.3g
Because fluorine has a higher electronegativity
