Molality is a unit of measurement for concentration that is calculated through the equation,
m = moles of solute / kg of solvent
Recall that because water's density is approximately equal to 1 g/mL, 250 mL of water is also equal to 250 g or 0.25 kg. Substituting the known values,
0.6 = moles of solute / 0.25 kg solvent
moles of solute = 0.15 moles
Then, we determine the mass of sucrose by multiplying the calculated number of moles with the molar mass of sucrose (342 g/mol). The answer would be equal to 51.3 g.
The answer IS letter C. For magnesium to pair with chlorine and be neutral, magnesium must pair with two chlorines. Magnesium is in column 2 which means it has two valance electrons to "give away." If it gives away its two valance electrons, it becomes a +2 cation. Chlorine readily accepts only one electron, and when it does it becomes a -1 anion. So what does this mean? Well, Magnesium Chloride is made up of 1 Mg atom, and 2 Chlorine atoms because it forms a neutral compound. Mg gives 1 electron to each Cl atom forming a +2 -2 neutral compound. The Mg bares a +2 charge after giving its two valance electrons away, and each Cl bares a -1 charge after taking an electron. Hence +2 -2, which is neutral. This is why the formula is MgCl2.
Answer:
Publishing results of research projects in peer-reviewed journals enables the scientific and medical community to evaluate the findings themselves. It also provides instructions so that other researchers can repeat the experiment or build on it to verify and confirm the results.
