Mg reaction with O₂ gas will produce MgO so the equation will be
2Mg+O₂⇒2MgO. (You have to find the equation in order two figure out the number of moles of O₂ that will react with 1 mole of MgO).
The first step is to find the number of moles of Mg in 4.03g of Mg. You can do this by dividing 4.03g Mg by its molar mass (which is 24.3g/mol) to get 0.1658mol Mg. Then you have to find the number of moles of O₂ that will react with 0.1658mol Mg. To do this you need to use the fact that 1mol O₂ will react with 2mol Mg (this reatio is from the chemical equation) so you have to multiply 0.1658mol Mg by (1mol O₂)/(2mol Mg) to get 0.0829mol O₂. From here you would usually use PV=nRT and solve for V However, the question tells us that we are at STP, that means you can use the fact that 22.4L of gas is 1 mol of gas at STP. Using that information we can find the volume of O₂ gas by mulitlying 0.0829mol O₂ by 22.4L/mol to get 1.857L which equals 1857mL.
therefore, 1857mL of O₂ gas will react with 4.03g of Mg.
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
The correct answer is - deflation.
The process of deflation can be caused by the winds. It is an erosive process in which the main role has the wind that is carrying lot of sediment in the shape of very small particles with it.
Through this process, the winds manage to erode large areas, especially in the drier places where the vegetation is very sparsely distributed. By this type of erosion, the winds manage to make lot of hollows that can range significantly in size. The hollows made by the deflation can be anywhere from few cm deep and several meters long, up to several km long and 50-60 meters of depth.
This is the process that is responsible for the creation of most of the oasis in the largest desert in the world, Sahara, some even being lowered enough to be under the sea level.
Answer:
The answer to your question is 27 g of Al
Explanation:
Data
mass of Al = ?
moles of Al₂O₃ = 0.5
The correct formula for the product is Al₂O₃
Balanced chemical reaction
4Al + 3O₂ ⇒ 2Al₂O₃
Process
1.- Calculate the molar mass of the product
Al₂O₃ = (27 x 2) + (16 x 3)
= 54 + 48
= 102 g
2.- Convert the moles of Al₂O₃ to grams
102 g ---------------- 1 mol
x ---------------- 0.5 moles
x = (0.5 x 102) / 1
x = 51 g of Al₂O₃
3.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of Al
4(27) g of Al --------------- 2(102) g of Al₂O₃
x --------------- 51 g
x = (51 x 4(27)) / 2(102)
x = 5508 / 204
x = 27 g of Al
A scale and a ruler. The scale to measure the mass, and a ruler to measure the volume.
