Solid Magnesium is considered as active metal so it reacts with strong acids like HCl and H₂SO₄ liberating Hydrogen gas according to the following equations:
Mg(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
Mg(s) + H₂SO₄(aq) → MgSO₄(aq) + H₂(g)
so the amount of solid magnesium decrease by addition of strong acid to it.
The answer is 6 because the number of chlorine is 2 so if you have 6 moles of chlorine the answer is 6
The elements in group 7, which fluorine is in also, would have similar properties due to the valence electrons and the configuration. <span />
Answer:- 0.88
Solution:- Masses of silver and copper metals are given and we are asked to calculate the percentage of silver in the alloy.
mass percent of Ag = 
Mass of Ag = 17.6 g
mass of Cu = 2.40 g
mass of alloy = 17.6 g + 2.40 g = 20.0 g
Let's plug in the values in the formula:
mass percentage of Ag = 
mass percentage of Ag = 88%
So, the mass percentage of silver in sterling silver is 88% and in decimal form it is 0.88.
