1.386 g of Mg ribbon combusts to form 2.309 g of oxide product. The mass percent of oxygen in the oxide is 40.0 %.
Let's consider the reaction for the combustion of Mg.
Mg + 1/2 O₂ ⇒ MgO
1.386 g of Mg combusts to form 2.309 g of MgO. We want to determine the mass of oxygen in MgO. According to Lavoisier's law of conservation of mass, matter is not created nor destroyed over the course of a chemical reaction. Then, the mass of Mg in the reactants is equal to the mass of Mg in MgO. The mass of the magnesium oxide is the sum of the masses of magnesium and oxygen. The <u>mass of oxygen in the oxide</u> is:

We can calculate the mass percent of O in MgO using the following expression.

northern america is the correct answer i’m pretty sure
The answer is "c" because solidification or freezing is the term used for the process in which a liquid becomes a solid.<span> Freezing is an exothermic process that also is an example of a phase transition</span>
Answer:
[Ne]3s2
Explanation:
ahora tenemos que mirar cada una de las configuraciones electrónicas de cada átomo de cerca antes de tomar una decisión.
considerando la configuración electrónica más externa de cada una de las especies mostradas;
para la primera configuración, ns2 np6 corresponde a un gas noble.
para la segunda configuración ns2 np3 corresponde a un elemento no metálico del grupo 5.
para la tercera configuración, ns2 corresponde a un elemento metálico del grupo 2.
para la cuarta configuración, ns2 np4 corresponde a un elemento no metálico del grupo 6
