When iron rusts and forms iron oxide, the iron oxide has more mass than the iron because the iron atoms in iron oxide have more mass than pure iron.

Pure iron contains only iron atoms and nothing else. It is a pure substance.

Iron has an atomic mass of 56 while oxygen has an atomic mass of 16. It follows that iron has a greater mass than oxygen.

However, in iron oxide, iron combines with oxygen to form Fe2O3. There are two iron atoms and three oxygen atoms in Fe2O3.

Three oxygen atoms have a total mass of 48g while two iron atoms has a total mass of 112g.

It the follows that, when iron rusts and forms iron oxide, the iron oxide has more mass than the iron because the iron atoms in iron oxide have more mass than pure iron.

Burning Mg in the air and reacting with O2 forming a white powder of MnO

So the equation is going to be:
Mn + O2 ⇒ MnO (this equation is not conserved)

to make it equilibrium:
1- First we should put 2Mno to equal the O2 on both sides.
So it will be:
Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO
2- Second we should put 2Mn to equal the Mn on both sides.
2Mg + O2⇒ 2MgO (this equation is conserved)
After putting the physical states the final equilibrium equation is going to be:
                        Δ
2Mg(s) + O2(g)⇒ 2MgO(s)

A particular chemical reaction is exergonic. What can you say about the relationship between the reactants and the products in t
ozzi

Answer:

Products have a lower total Gibbs free energy in comparison with the reagents total Gibbs free energy.

Explanation:

Hello,

Exergonic chemical reactions are those that the overall Gibbs free energy is negative, it means that the products have a lower total Gibbs free energy, turning out into a spontaneous chemical reaction. Such reactions are thermodynamically possible under standard conditions and they usually release heat.

Best regards.

MASS AND WEIGHT
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

  • about 13,170,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 pounds

Earth weighs about 13,170,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 pounds (or 5,974,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kilograms). Since Earth is too big to be placed on a scale, scientists use mathematics and the laws of gravity to figure out Earth's weight.

  • The surface gravity on Mars is only about 38% of the surface gravity on Earth, so if you weigh 100 pounds on Earth, you would weigh only 38 pounds on Mars
  • So, the strength of gravity on Venus is 8.87 m/s².
