Answer:
Mass = 36 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of water formed = ?
Mass of hydrogen = 4.04 g
Mass of oxygen = 31.98 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Number of moles of hydrogen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 4.04 g/ 2 g/mol
Number of moles = 2.02 mol
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 31.98 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.0 mol
Now we will compare the moles of water with hydrogen and oxygen.
O₂ : H₂O
1 : 2
H₂ : H₂O
2 : 2
2.02 : 2.02
Number of moles of water formed by oxygen are less thus oxygen will limiting reactant.
Mass of water:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 2 mol × 18 g/mol
Mass = 36 g
Let's hope she didn't watch it without me or i will never be speaking to her again :))
Answer:
Magnesium oxide is a binary compound of magnesium and oxygen while magnesium ribbon consists only of magnesium atoms.
Explanation:
The burning of magnesium in oxygen is a chemical change. It produces magnesium oxide having greater mass than magnesium ribbon. The greater mass results from the fact that the chemical reaction has added another element to the sample- oxygen. The mass of magnesium ribbon is the mass of magnesium atoms alone but in magnesium oxide, we consider the masses of magnesium and oxygen atoms making magnesium oxide heavier than magnesium ribbon.
