If you start with 0.020 g of Mg, how many moles of H2 will you make if the reaction is complete?
1 answer:
If one starts with 0.020 g of Mg, 0.0008 moles of H2 would be made if the reaction is complete.
Going by the balanced equation of reaction in the image, 1 mole of Mg will produce 1 mole of H2 in a complete reaction.
If 0.020 g of Mg is started with:
mole of Mg = mass/molar mass
= 0.020/24.3
= 0.0008 moles
Since the mole of Mg to H2 is 1:1, thus, 0.0008 moles of H2 will also be made from the reaction.

Explanation:
When magnesium metal burns is heated i the air it forms magnesium oxide.The balanced chemical reaction is given as:
2 moles of magnesium metal when reacts with 1 moles of oxygen it gives 2 moles of magnesium oxide which is white in color.
Some times along with formation of magnesium oxide small amount of magnesium nitride also produced due to which magnesium oxide appears grey in color .The balanced chemical reaction is given as:
3 moles of magnesium combines with 1 mol of nitrogen gas to to give 1 mol of magnesium nitride.
