Answer:
5.90, 11.8, 47.2
Explanation:
Let’s remove the parentheses and write the formula as MgCl₂O₈.
We see that 1 mol Mg(ClO₄)₂ contains 1 mol Mg atoms, 2 mol Cl atoms, and 8 mol O atoms.
∴


∴ Mg, Cl, O = 5.90, 11.8, 47.2
<u>Answer:</u> The moles of water produced are 1.54 moles.
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

Given mass of ethane = 15.42 g
Molar mass of ethane = 30.07 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:

The chemical equation for the combustion of ethane follows:

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
2 moles of ethane produces 6 moles of water
So, 0.513 moles of ethane will produce =
of water
Hence, the moles of water produced are 1.54 moles.
H2O is the Bronsted-Lowry base because it accepts the hydrogen ion to become H3O after the reaction is complete.
