Answer:

4.15g

Explanation:

Balance the reaction:

2Mg + O2 = 2MgO

Find limiting reactant from the two, by dividing miles with coefficient

2.5/24.3 = 0.103 moles/2 = 0.0515

5/16 = 0.31 moles/2 = 0.156

0.0515 is small than 0.156, so limiting reactant is Mg

Compare the ratio of Mg with MgO

Ratio is 2:2

So same moles = 0.103 moles

Mass = moles x molar mass of MgO

Mass = 0.103 x 40.3

= 4.15g

How do you convert kilograms to pounds?

Maru [420]

Answer: (1 Kilogram = 2.20462 pounds) . There are 2.2046226218 lb in 1 kilogram. To convert kilograms to pounds, multiply your figure by 2.205 for an approximate result. 1 kilogram is also equal to 2 lb and 3.27396195 oz. Working out a rough estimate in your head for converting to pounds and ounces may be tricky - remember that there are 16 ounces in a pound.

The boiling point of liquid nitrogen is 77 kelvin. It is observed that ice forms at the opening of a container of liquid nitroge

icang [17]

Answer:

The answer is "The First choice".

Explanation:

The whole question can be found in the file attached.

The water vapor inside the air freezes thru the entrance of its nitrogen. This is because liquid nitrogen has a very low temperature and seems to be sufficiently cold to condensed and freeze the steam of water. At air pressure, it has a boiling temperature of -196°C. Freezing the skin producing freeze or cold burns can be associated with direct contact.
