246800 tons of sulfur dioxide was emitted by the utility company who burned 6.17 million tons of coal.

6.17 million tons of coal contain 2.00% sulfur, hence the weight of sulfur is:

Weight of sulfur = 2% of 6.17 million tons = 0.02 * 6170000 = 123400 tons

123400 tons of sulfur is found in 6.17 million tons of coal

The weight of sulfur dioxide is twice that of sulfur, hence:

Amount of sulfur dioxide emitted = 2 * 123400 tons  = 246800 tons

246800 tons of sulfur dioxide was emitted.

Please help me with this chem question, I’ll mark you brainiest if it’s right. There’s multiple answers for this one.
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Option A. KCl (aq)

Option D. Mg(OH)₂(s

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —>

In solution, MgCl₂(aq) and KOH(aq) will dissociate as follow:

MgCl₂(aq) —> Mg²⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq)

KOH(aq) —> K⁺(aq) + OH¯(aq)

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —>

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq) + 2K⁺(aq) + OH¯(aq) —> 2K⁺(aq) + 2Cl¯(aq) + Mg(OH)₂ (s)

MgCl₂(aq) + KOH(aq) —> 2KCl (aq) + Mg(OH)₂(s)

Thus, the products of the above reaction are: KCl(aq) and Mg(OH)₂(s)

Thus, option A and D gives the correct answer to the question.
