A compound is formed when 9.03 g

Chemistry
1 answer:
NikAS [45]3 years ago
3 0

The percent composition  of this compound :

Mg = 72.182%

N = 27.818%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

9.03 g  Mg

3.48 g  N

Required

The percent composition

Solution

Proust stated the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison so that the compound has a fixed composition of elements

Total mass of the compound :

= 9.03 g + 3.48 g

= 12.51 g

The percent composition :

Mg : 9.03/ 12.51 g x 100% = 72.182%

N : 3.48 / 12.51 g x 100% = 27.818%

A biochemist carefully measures the molarity of magnesium ion in of cell growth medium to be . Unfortunately, a careless graduat
denis23 [38]

Answer:

760 uM

Explanation:

<em>A biochemist carefully measures the molarity of magnesium ion in 47, mL of cell growth medium to be 97 uM. Unfortunately, a careless graduate student forgets to cover the container of growth medium and a substantial amount of the solvent evaporates. The volume of the cell growth medium falls to 6.0 mL. Calculate the new molarity of magnesium ion in the cell growth medium Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

The problem here is that the amount of magnesium ion remains the same irrespective of the volume.

Amount of magnesium in the growth medium = <em>molarity x volume</em>

    = 97 x 10^{-6} x 47 x 10^{-3} = 4.559 x 10^{-6}

Then, the volume reduced to 6.0 mL, the new molarity becomes;

<em>molarity = mole/volume </em>

       = 4.559 x 10^{-6}/6 x 10^{-3} = 7.598333 x 10^{-4} M = 759.83333 uM

To the correct number of significant digits = 760 uM

Calculate each of the following:<br> (b) Mass % of Mn in potassium permanganate
Brilliant_brown [7]

Mass percent is the estimation of the mass of the element in a compound in percentage form. The mass % of manganese (Mn) in potassium permanganate is 34.76 %.

<h3>What is the mass percentage?</h3>

The mass percentage is defined by dividing the mass of the element by the molecular mass of the compound followed by multiplying it by 100%. It is given as,

Mass % =  (Atomic Mass of element ÷ Molecular Mass) × 100

As it is known that,

Atomic Mass of manganese =  54.94 g/mol

Molecular Mass of potassium permanganate =  158.034 g/mol

Substituting values to calculate mass % as:

% Mn  =  (Atomic Mass of Mn ÷ Molecular Mass of KMnO₄) × 100

= (54.94 g/mol ÷ 158.034 g/mol) × 100

= 34.76 %

Therefore, 34.76% Mn is present in KMnO₄.

How many grams of magnesium oxide are formed if 20.9 grams of Mg and 15.2 g of O2 react.
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Mass of magnesium oxide formed = 35.1 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Mg = 20.9 g

Mass of O₂ = 15.2 g

Mass of magnesium oxide formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Mg + O₂     →   2MgO

Number of moles of Mg:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20.9 g/ 24 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.87 mol

Number of moles of O₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 15.2 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.475 mol

Now we will compare the moles of MgO with magnesium and oxygen.

                Mg          :         MgO

                  2           :           2

                0.87        :         0.87

                  O₂         :         MgO

                     1         :            2

                   0.475   :        2/1×0.475 = 0.95  

Number of moles of MgO formed by Mg are less thus Mg will limiting reactant.

Mass of MgO:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.87 mol × 40.3 g/mol

Mass = 35.1 g
