Magnesium metal is oxidized to magnesium ion: $Mg(s) rarr Mg^(2+) + 2e^(-)$ $(i)$ Oxygen gas is reduced to oxide anion: $O_2(g) + 4e^(-) rarr 2O^(2-)$ $(ii)$ Overall $2xx(i) + (ii)$,...
1 Answers 1 viewsI would look at your equation again. You have even balanced and formatted it properly. What does it say? It says 1 molecule of hydrogen sulfide reacts with 2 molecules...
1 Answers 1 viewsThe expression $2Mg + O_2 -> 2MgO$ Means Two atoms of magnesium, plus one oxygen molecule (consisting of two atoms of oxygen) react to become two particles of magnesium oxide,...
1 Answers 1 viewsBalanced Equation $"2Mg(s)" + "O"_2("g")$$rarr$$"2MgO(s)"$ You need the molar masses of $"MgO"$ and $"O"_2"$. Molar Masses $"MgO":$$"40.304400 g/mol"$ )%22 $"O"_2:$$"31.9988 g/mol"$ Determine the moles of MgO by dividing the...
1 Answers 1 viewsStep 1. Calculate the moles of $"O"_2$. $32.5 cancel("g O"_2) × ("1 mol O"2)/(32.00 cancel("g O"2)) = "1.016 mol O"_2$ Step 2. Use the molar ratio to calculate the...
1 Answers 1 viewsLet us first look at the equation. As per the equation , 2 moles of Magnesium produces two moles of MgO . If we double the amount of Magnesium ,...
1 Answers 1 viewsWe use the Ideal Gas Equation to access the molar quantity of dioxygen gas............ $n=(PV)/(RT)=(0.927*atmxx0.4981*L)/(0.0821*(L*atm)/(K*mol)xx418.4*K)=1.34xx10^-2*mol$. Given the stoichiometric equation.......... $Mg(s) + O_2(g) rarr MgO(s)$ There are $1.34xx10^-2*molxx24.31*g*mol^-1=??*g$ metal required for...
1 Answers 1 viewsWe has.............. $2Mg(s) + O_2(g) rarr 2MgO(s)$ $DeltaH^@""_"rxn"=-1204*kJ*mol^-1$ $(i)$ To make the arithmetic a bit easier we could write........ $Mg(s) + 1/2O_2(g) rarr MgO(s)$ $DeltaH^@""_"rxn"=-602*kJ*mol^-1$ $(ii)$ I am CLEARLY free...
1 Answers 1 views$2Mg(s) + O_2(g) rarr 2MgO(s)$ $ DeltaH_"rxn"=-1203*kJ*mol^-1$ Enthalpy terms are written per mole of reaction as written. We combust 4 moles of magnesium metal, and should therefore generate $2xx-1203*kJ=-2406*kJ$. Note...
1 Answers 1 viewsStart by assigning to all the atoms that take part in the reaction--it's actually a good idea to start with the unbalanced chemical equation $stackrel(color(blue)(0))("Mg")_ ((s)) + stackrel(color(blue)(0))("O") _...
