Answer: -

The experiment Niven is doing is burning of Mg.

The first step would be finding the molar mass of MgO

Atomic mass of Mg = 24 g

Atomic mass of Oxygen = 16 g

Molar mass of MgO = 24 x 1 + 16 x 1 = 40 g

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

2 Mg + O2 -- > 2MgO

From the balanced equation we see that

2 Mg gives 2 MgO

2 x24 g of Mg O gives 2 x 40 g of MgO.

28g of MgO gives \frac{2 x 40 gram x 28 gram }{2 x 24 gram}

= 46.66 g of MgO.

Answer:

The first step would be to write the balanced chemical reaction

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of Mg = 28.0 g

The first step is to write down the balanced chemical reaction depicting the stoichiometry

2Mg + O2 → 2MgO

Therefore, 2 moles of Mg produces 2 moles of MgO

i.e. the ratio of Mg:MgO = 1:1

Atomic mass of Mg = 24 g/mol

Moles of Mg reacted = \frac{28.0 g}{24 g/mol} = 1.167

This is equal to the moles of MgO produced = 1.167

Molar mass of MgO = 24 + 16 = 40 g/mol

Mass of MgO produced = 1.167 moles * 40 g/mol = 46.7 g

Answer: genotype: Ee phenotype: two small eyes.

genotype: RR'  phenotype: pink eyes

genotype: GB phenotype: green and blue splotches

genotype: cc phenotype:  straight

genotype: Tt phenotype:  has tail

genotype: Ss phenotype: sharp teeth

genotype: FF' phenotype: three toes

genotype: ww phenotype: white

genotype: YY phenotype: pointy

genotype: nn phenotype: two ears

genotype: Ll phenotype: long

Explanation: hope this helps (the uppercase letters are dominant genes. the lowercase letter are recessive genes. for a recessive gene to show up in a phenotype you need 2 lower case letters such as cc or ss. for a dominant gene to show up in phenotype you need either 1 or 2 uppercase letters such as Cc or SS. Codominant genes present both colors in the phenotypes i.e. a brown and white cow. incomplete dominance is when neither gene is dominant so a mix of the 2 are present in the phenotype i.e. a pink rose. A regulatory gene controls the expression of a gene

What is the concentration of x2??? in a 0.150 m solution of the diprotic acid h2x? for h2x, ka1=4.5??10???6 and ka2=1.2??10???11
lutik1710 [3]
The first dissociation for H2X:
                        H2X +H2O ↔ HX + H3O
initial                0.15                     0      0
change             -X                     +X      +X
at equlibrium 0.15-X                  X        X
because Ka1 is small we can assume neglect x in H2X concentration
     Ka1      = [HX][H3O]/[H2X]
4.5x10^-6 =( X )(X) / (0.15)
X = √(4.5x10^-6*0.15) 
∴X = 8.2 x 10-4 m
∴[HX] & [H3O] = 8.2x10^-4
the second dissociation of H2X
        HX + H2O↔ X^2 + H3O
    8.2x10^-4          Y         8.2x10^-4
Ka2 for Hx = 1.2x10^-11
Ka2       = [X2][H3O]/[HX]
1.2x10^-11= y (8.2x10^-4)*(8.2x10^-4)
∴y = 1.78x10^-5
∴[X^2] = 1.78x10^-5 m
