How many moles of magnesium chloride can be formed from 4.86 g of Mg and 21.27 g of Cl2?

Chemistry

Hoochie [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Moles of magnesium chloride can be produced are 0.2 moles

Explanation:

The reaction of Mg with Cl2 is:

Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂

<em>Where 1 mole of Mg reacts per mole of Cl₂ to produce MgCl₂.</em>

<em />

As the reaction is 1:1, we need to convert the mass of both Mg and Cl₂ to moles. The lower number of moles will determine the moles of MgCl₂ that will be produced:

<em>Moles Mg -Molar mass: 24.3g/mol-:</em>

4.86g * (1mol / 24.3g) = 0.2 moles Mg

<em>Moles Cl₂ -Molar mass: 24.3g/mol-:</em>

21.27g * (1mol / 70.9g) = 0.3 moles Cl₂

As moles of Mg < moles of Cl₂, Mg is limiting reactant and moles of magnesium chloride can be produced are 0.2 moles

How many grams of Fe3O4 are required to react completely with 300 grams of H2?
vekshin1

Answer:

2023.04 g

Explanation:

Magnetite reacts with hydrogen to produce Iron metal and steam. Steam instead of water is produced as the reaction occurs at temperatures above the boiling point of water.

Fe₃O₄ + 4 H₂ → 3 Fe +4 H₂O

From the equation, 1 mole of Fe₃O₄ reacts with 4 moles of H₂.

69.76 grams of H₂ has the following number of moles.

Number of moles= mass/RAM

=69.76/2

=34.88 moles.

The reaction ratio of Fe₃O₄ to H₂ is 1:4

Thus number of moles of magnetite= (1×34.88)/4

=8.72 moles.

Mass= moles × molecular weight

=8.72 moles × (56×3+16×4)

=2023.04 grams

Describe the relationship between the radius of a cation and that of the atom from which forms.
vichka [17]

The radius of the cation is much smaller than the corresponding neutral atom.(b) The radius of an anion is much larger than the corresponding neutral atom.Explanation:The size of the atom or ion is inversely proportional to the nuclear charge experienced by the electrons.(a)The size of the cation is smaller than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. This is because after removal of an electron from the highest principle energy level the nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons increases resulting in the decrease in size.(b)The size of an anion is larger than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. In an anion, an extra electron is added to the highest principle energy level but the effective nuclear charge pulling the electrons towards the nucleus is still same. The net effective nuclear charge experienced by the electrons present in the outermost shell decrease. Moreover, due to the added electron, the repulsion between the electrons also increases resulting in the increase in size

Make since? i hope this helps

Help!!! I need ur help! If u help me I’m going to be so happy. The question is so tricky for me and I don’t know it. If u help m
Mekhanik [1.2K]

I take that the insects remain constant no matter what happens to the frogs (which the frogs eat presumably). So a constant food supply for the frogs is not the problem.

The line for the alligators increases over time. It their numbers increase, the frogs are in trouble. The alligators will pursue lunch with determined single mindedness and there are more of them around.

So the frogs should decrease. Their natural enemy is the alligator and alligators won't go after insects. It's not worth their time.

A is the only answer you can choose.
