88g ( so sorry if this isn’t correct )
We are celebrating a fresh start to another year
Mg + 1/2 O2 → MgO
1 mol = 24 g of Mg
X mol = 12 g of Mg
x = 0.5 moles of Mg
Mg :MgO = 1:1 (coefficient from equations using mole ratio)
So
0.5 moles of MgO
1 mol MgO = (24+16) g = 40 g
0.5 moles of MgO = 0.5 × 40
= 20 g of MgO produced
10.3 is good the correct rounding of three sig figures
