The amount of Mg(OH)2 present after the reaction is complete is 0.136 moles of Mg(OH)2.
The equation of the reaction is;
2HNO3(aq) + Mg(OH)2(aq) -------> Mg(NO3)2(aq) + 2H2O(l)
Number of moles of Mg(OH)2 = 8.00 g/58 g/mol = 0.138 moles
Number of moles of HNO3 = 0.205 M × 24.2 mL/1000 = 0.00496 moles
Given that;
2 moles of HNO3 reacts with 1 mole of Mg(OH)2
0.00496 moles of HNO3 reacts with 0.00496 moles × 1 mole /2 moles = 0.00248 moles of Mg(OH)2
Hence, Mg(OH)2 is the reactant in excess.
The amount of Mg(OH)2 remaining = Amount present - Amount reacted
Hence; 0.138 moles - 0.00248 moles = 0.136 moles of Mg(OH)2

Answer:
The person should not be concerned about radon.
Explanation:
<em>A person living on the sixth floor of an aparment probably should not be concerned about radon</em>. In the conditions of the Earth's atmosphere (temperature and pressure), radon exists as a gas. This gas has a density that is approximately 8 times higher than the density of air (9.73 g/L compared to 1.22 g/L). <em>This means that radon gas would not rise, and instead remain close to the ground</em>, meaning that an apartment on a sixth floor is too far away from the ground for radon gas to reach there.
A gas being denser than air is also the reason why if you blow into a balloon, it will fall to the ground, because CO₂ is denser than air.
The correct equation
for the overall reaction can simply be obtained by adding the two separate
equations together. Now when you add the two equations together, the overall K can
be calculated by multiplying the individual K values. Therefore:<span>
K(overall) = K1 * K2 </span>
K(overall) = (1.6 x
10^-10) * (1.5 x 10^7)
<span>K(overall) = 2.4 x
10^-3</span>
