Assume that the test tube shown started out having 10.00 g of mercury(II) oxide. After heating the test tube briefly, you find 1

.35 g mercury(II) oxide left and 8.00 g of liquid mercury. How much oxygen gas was produced by the chemical reaction? Show your work.

This problem is providing information about the initial mass of mercury (II) oxide (10.00 g) which is able to produce liquid mercury (8.00 g) and gaseous oxygen and asks for the resulting mass of the latter, which turns out to be 0.65 g after doing the corresponding calculations.

Initially, it is given a mass of 10.00 g of the oxide and 1.35 g are left which means that the following mass is consumed:

m_{HgO}^{consumed}=10.00g-1.35 g=8.65 g

Now, since 8.00 grams of liquid mercury are collected, it is possible to calculate the grams of oxygen that were produced, by considering the law of conservation of mass, which states that the mass of the products equal that of the reactants as it is nor destroyed nor created. In such a way, the mass of oxygen turns out to be:

m_{O_2}=8.65g-8.00g=0.65g

At a room temperature, which of the following will evaporate first, a drop of water or a drop of ethanol
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Ethanol will evaporate first because it is more volatile or has a lower boiling point than water.

Consider the reaction of Mg3N2 with H2O to form Mg(OH)2 and NH3. If 4.33 g H2O is reacted with excess Mg3N2 and 6.26 g of Mg(OH)
Len [333]

Answer:

89.34%

Explanation:

First, write a balanced reaction.

Mg3N2 + <u>6</u>H2O --> <u>3</u>Mg (OH)2 + <u>2</u>NH3

Next determine the moles of the known substance, or limiting reagent ( H2O)

n= m/MM

n ( H2O) = 4.33/(1.008×2)+16

n(H2O)= 0.2403

Use the mole ratio to find the moles of Mg(OH)2

0.2403 ÷2

n (Mg (OH)2) = 0.1202

Next, find the theoretical mass of Mg (OH)2 that should have been produced

m= n × MM

m= 0.1202 × (24.305 + (16×2) +(1.008 ×2))

=7.007g

To find percentage yield, divide the experimental amount by the theoretical amount and multiply by 100.

6.26/ 7.007 × 100

=89.34%
