First, we apply the law of conservation of mass which states that the total mass in a system remains constant.
Therefore, there must be 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen in the product. Now, we determine the mass percentage using:
Mass % = (mass of sulfur x 100) / total mass of compound
Mass % = (5 * 100) / (5 + 4.99)
Mass % = 50.05%
The product contains 50.05% sulfur by mass.
The water cycle is one interaction between the geosphere and the cryosphere.
Look at the periodic table to find the charge on atoms.
Magnesium is +2 and Nitrogen is -3. Since there are two nitrogen charge 2*-3 = -6 there needs to be 3 Mg then (3*2+ = 6+) to pair with the two nitrogen.
3 Mg(+2) + 2 N(-3) = Mg3N2
The answer is A.Hope this helps
