there are 12 atoms of mg in the following equations

sergey [27]3 years ago

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 12 \ Mg \ atoms }}

Explanation:

We are given this formula:

(Mg_3N_2)_4

We want to find the number of magnesium atoms. We can see that there is a subscript of 3 after the magnesium, so there are 3 magnesium atoms in 1 molecule of the compound.

However, there is a subscript of 4 that comes after the entire compound, so there are actually 4 molecules, with each molecule containing 3 magnesium atoms. Multiply 4 and 3.

  • 3 Mg * 4 = 12 Mg

There are 12 magnesium atoms.

Traumatic acid contains 63.13% carbon, 8.830% hydrogen, and 28.03% oxygen. its molar mass is 228 g/mol. determine the empirical
Zina [86]
Q1)
firstly we need to determine the empirical formula of the compound. empirical formula is the simplest ratio of components in the compound.
percentages of the elements have been given, so lets assume we are calculating for a compound of 100g 
                                  C                               H                              O
mass                       63.13 g                    8.830 g                       28.03 g
molar mass             12 g/mol                   1 g/mol                      16 g/mol
number of moles     63.13/12                   8.830/1                      28.03/16
                                5.26                           8.830                           1.75
divide by the smallest number of moles 
                                5.26/1.75                   8.830/1.75                   1.75/1.75
                                = 3.01                        = 5.04                           =1
rounded off to the nearest whole numbers 
C - 3
H - 5
O - 1
therefore empirical formula = C₃H₅O

Q2)
we have to next determine the molecular formula of the compound 
molecular formula gives the actual composition of elements in the compound. 
since we know the empirical formula and molecular mass, we can find how many empirical units are in the molecular formula.
mass of empirical unit = Cx3 + Hx5 + Ox1
                                    = 12 g/mol x 3 + 1g/mol x 5 + 16 g/mol x 1
                                    = 36 + 5 + 16 = 57 g/mol
the molecular mass = 228 g/mol
then number of empirical units in the molecular formula = 228 / 57 = 4
therefore there are 4 empirical units 
then the molecular formula = 4 x empirical formula =4 (C₃H₅O)
molecular formula = C₁₂H₂₀O₄

What happens to the freezing point of a solution when more solute is added?
bixtya [17]
Freezing point depression is the phenomena that describes why adding a solute to a solvent results in the lowering of the freezing point of the solvent. ... Adding solute to a solvent will essentially dilute the solvent molecules, and according to Raoult's law, this leads to a decrease in vapor pressure.

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

These substances are called amphiprotic. Water, amino acids, hydrogen carbonate ions, and hydrogen sulfate ions are common examples.

Explanation:

A substance is amphoteric (from Greek amphoteros = "each of two") if it can act as an acid or a base.

For example, aluminum hydroxide is amphoteric because it can act as a base and neutralize strong acids.
