mg(oh)2
How many H atoms are there?
How many Mg?
What is the total number of atoms?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 2 hydrogen atoms, one magnesium atom, and 5 atoms in total.

Explanation:

We are given a compound in formula form. To make things easier to understand, we can first convert this to the name of the compound.

When a compound contains one or more elements in parentheses, these are usually a polyatomic ion. Polyatomic ions are ions made up of two or more elements with a positive or negative charge over the entire ion. Commons examples of these NH₄⁺ (ammonia) and HCO₃⁻ (bicarbonate). You can combine metals with polyatomic ions to create commonly known compounds, such as baking soda. The chemical name for baking soda is sodium bicarbonate, so we can combine Na (sodium) with HCO₃⁻ (bicarbonate) and create sodium bicarbonate: NaHCO₃.

This compound is one magnesium atom bonded to two hydroxide ions.

Hydroxide is the compound between one hydrogen atom and one oxygen atom. The compound overall adopts a negative charge of 1.If we have one hydrogen atom and one oxygen atom, the most electronegative atom is written first in chemical formulas. Therefore, the symbol for Oxygen (O) goes first.Then, write in the hydrogen atom directly after the O symbol: OH.Finally, since we have a negative charge on the ion, we need to play a negative sign as a superscript for the compound. Therefore, this becomes OH⁻.

Now, we need to determine the charge on the Magnesium atom which is determined from the amount of valence electrons the atom has.

On a periodic table, the symbol for Magnesium is Mg and this element has 2 valence electrons. In order to fulfill the Octet Rule, the It is more likely to give up 2 electrons to a nonmetal than it is to gain 6, so we can safely assume that the charge is ²⁺.We need to use the criss-cross technique to transfer the charges between the element and the ion, so the negative 1 charge goes to the Mg, which does not appear (negative 1 or positive 1 are implied) and since the magnesium has a charge of positive 2, this is the subscript for the hydroxide ion.Therefore, our compound becomes Mg(OH)₂, and we have labeled this as magnesium hydroxide.

Now, to the number of atoms:

The new charge on Mg is 1-, so there is only one atom of Mg.The charge is 2+ on the OH ion, so there are two atoms of H and two atoms of O.Two atoms of oxygen, two atoms of hydrogen, and one atom of magnesium add up to be five atoms in total.

A doctor's order is 0.500 g of ampicillin. The liquid suspension on hand contains 250 mg/5.0 mL. How many milliliters of the suspension are required?

Answers

The volume of the suspension required : 10 ml

Further explanation

Given

0.500 g of ampicillin

The liquid suspension concentration = 250 mg/5 mL

Required

The volume of the suspension required

Solution

The concentration of a substance can be expressed in various units such as molarity, ppm, g / L etc.

Each unit change, we must pay attention to the conversion factor

Conversion g to mg

0.5 g = 500 mg

The volume of the suspension needed :

=mass x concentration

[tex]\tt \dfrac{500~mg}{250~mg/5~ml}=500~mg\times \dfrac{5~ml}{250~mg}\\\\=10~ml[/tex]

Pls help, How is stoichiometry used to calculate amounts of substances in a chemical reaction?

Answers

Answer:

Thus, to calculate the stoichiometry by mass, the number of molecules required for each reactant is expressed in moles and multiplied by the molar mass of each to give the mass of each reactant per mole of reaction. The mass ratios can be calculated by dividing each by the total in the whole reaction.

Explanation: Stoichiometry is the field of chemistry that is concerned with the relative quantities of reactants and products in chemical reactions. For any balanced chemical reaction, whole numbers (coefficients) are used to show the quantities (generally in moles ) of both the reactants and products.

No! The balanced equation is given below:

C₆H₁₀O₅ + 6O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 5H₂O

Explanation:

C₆H₁₀O₅ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

The equation above is not balanced. It can be balance as illustrated below:

C₆H₁₀O₅ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

There are 6 atoms of C on the left side and 1 at the right side. It can be balance by 6 in front of CO₂ as illustrated below:

C₆H₁₀O₅ + O₂ —> 6CO₂ + H₂O

There are 10 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on right side. It can be balance by 5 in front of H₂O as illustrated below:

C₆H₁₀O₅ + O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 5H₂O

There are a total of 7 atoms of O on the left side and a total of 17 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by 6 in front of O₂ as illustrated below:

C₆H₁₀O₅ + 6O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 5H₂O

Now, the equation is balanced.

What is the answer for number 2?

Answers

Answer:

It has mass but no charge.

Explanation:

The question asks to describe ONE of the subatomic particles that could be found at location X in the model, so you should think of protons and neutrons. Now all of the answers do NOT describe a proton, but the first answer describes a neutron. Neutrons have mass but no charge. Why? The neutron has two down quarks and one up quark, down quarks, have a charge of -1/3, and up quarks have a charge of +2/3. Doing the math, you'd see that (-1/3)2+2/3 is equal to a neutral charge. So a neutron WILL have a mass, but will NOT have a charge, as they are used to hold the nucleus together.

When 3243. grams of iron (III) chloride are reacted with 511.8 grams of hydrosulfuric acid, which is the limiting reactant?
2 FeCl3 + 3 H2S -----> Fe2S3 + 6 HCl

Answers

Answer:

Hydrosulfuric acid will act as limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron(III) chloride = 3243.0 g

Mass of hydrosulfuric acid = 511.8 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2FeCl₃ + 3H₂S       →       Fe₂S₃ + 6HCl

Number of moles of iron(III) chloride:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 3243.0 g/ 162.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 20 mol

Number of moles of hydrosulfuric acid:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 511.8 g/ 34.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 15 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with products

                      FeCl₃          :          Fe₂S₃

                       2                :            1

                      20               :          1/2 ×20 = 10

                      FeCl₃          :            HCl

                       2                :              6

                      20               :          6/2 ×20 = 60

                      H₂S             :          Fe₂S₃

                       3                :            1

                      15               :          1/3 ×15 = 5

                      H₂S            :            HCl

                       3                :              6

                      15                :          6/3 ×15 = 30

Hydrosulfuric acid producing less number of moles of product thus, it will act as limiting reactant.

when you burn wood in a campfire, ____ energy is converted to ____ and light energy.

Answers

Answer:

when you burn wood in a campfire, chemical energy is converted to heat and light energy.

Explanation :

When wood is burned stored potential energy ( in the form of chemical energy ) in the log is released due to heating by other excited atoms . This process is called combustion and requires presence of oxygen. So,  combustion can be defined as a process which changes chemical energy into kinetic energy in the form of heat.  In case of combustion  an organic say wood in this case combines with oxygen present in the atmosphere to give off carbon dioxide, water and energy in the form of heat and light .
