4 0

2MgO
This is called redox reaction. Oxygen is the oxidizing agent to receive 2 electrons from Mg.
Mg is the reducing agent to give 2 electrons to O.
Mg becomes Mg2+ and O becomes O2-. These 2 ions form an ionic structure called MgO

Answer: $2MgO$

Explanation:

Synthesis reaction is a chemical reaction in which two reactants are combining to form one product.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

$2Mg+O_2\rightarrow 2MgO$

Thus the products of chemical reaction will be $2MgO$

True or False the molecule CCl4 contains one double bond and three single bonds.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: False

Explanation: Carbon is the central atom which has valency of 4 and can form 4 bonds to complete its octet. Each chlorine has valency of 1 and can form only one bond to complete its octet. Thus carbon can bond with four chlorine atoms through sharing of electrons to form four single bonds. Thus it cannot contain a double bond.

Define saturated and unsaturated fats

notsponge [240]

Saturated fatty acids lack double bonds between the individual carbon atoms, while in unsaturated fatty acids there is at least one double bond in the fatty acid chain. Saturated fats tend to be solid at room temperature and from animal sources, while unsaturated fats are usually liquid and from plant sources.

Describe how you can figure out how many grams of a COMPOUND if you know how many moles there

____ [38]

Divide the mass of the compound in grams by the molar mass you just calculated. The answer is the number of moles of that mass of compound. For example, 25 grams of water equals 25/18.016 or 1.39 moles.

For the reaction 2 NO(g) + 2 H2(g) => N2(g) + 2 H2O(g) the following data were collected. What is the rate law for this react

harkovskaia [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The rate law expression for the given reaction is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$2NO(g)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+2H_2O(g)$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[NO]^2[H_2]^2$

Hence, the rate law expression for the given reaction is written above.
