Answer: -

8.00 g

The law of conservation of mass

Explanation: -

When magnesium burns in air it combines with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.

The mass of the product is the mass of the magnesium oxide.

The mass of the reactant is the mass of the magnesium + mass of the oxygen.

Since matter cannot be created or destroyed according to the law of conservation of mass,

Mass of Magnesium oxide formed = mass of magnesium reacted + mass of oxygen reacted

= 3.00 g + 5.00 g

= 8.00 g

An organic acid is composed of carbon (45.45%), hydrogen (6.12%), and oxygen (48.44%). Its molar mass is 132.12 g/mol. Determine
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

C4H8O4

Explanation:

To determine the molecular formula, first, let us obtain the empirical formula. This is illustrated below:

From the question given, we obtained the following information:

C = 45.45%

H = 6.12%

O = 48.44%

Divide the above by their molar mass

C = 45.45/12 = 3.7875

H = 6.12/1 = 6.12

O = 48.44/16 = 3.0275

Divide by the smallest

C = 3.7875/3.0275 = 1

H = 6.12/3.0275 = 2

O = 3.0275/3.0275 = 1

The empirical formula is CH2O

The molecular formula is given by [CH2O]n

[CH2O]n = 132.12

[12 + (2x1) + 16]n = 132.12

30n = 132.12

Divide both side by the coefficient of n i.e 30

n = 132.12/30 = 4

The molecular formula is [CH2O]n = [CH2O]4 = C4H8O4

A student has two samples of NaCl, each one from a different source. Assume that the only potential contaminant in each sample i
bija089 [108]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. Which sample has the higher purity

Explanation:

The information given relate to the presence of two samples of NaCl, from different sources

The only potential contaminant in each of the sources = KCl

The content of the sample = NaCl

The molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

The molar mass of KCl = 74.5513 g/mol

Let the number of moles of KCl in the sample = X

For a given mass of NaCl, KCl mixture, we have;

The molar mass of potassium = 39.0983 g/mol

The molar mass of chlorine = 35.453 g/mol

The molar mass of sodium ≈ 23 g/mol

Therefore;

Each mole of KCl, will yield 35.453 g/mol per 74.5513 g/mol of KCl

While each mole of NaCl will yield 35.453 g/mol per 58.44 g/mol of NaCl

Therefore, the pure sodium chloride sample will yield more chlorine per unit mass of sample.

As such if the two samples have the same mass, the sample with the contaminant of KCl will yield less mass of chlorine per unit mass of the sample, from which the student will be able to tell the purity of the solution.

The sample with the higher purity will yield  a higher mass chlorine per unit mass of the sample.

A laboratory utilizes a mixture of 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in the freezing and long-term storage of embryonic stem cells.
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is "1.0100".

Explanation:

Let the volume of mixture be 100 ml.

then,

The volume of DMSO will be 10 mL as well as that of water will be 90 mL.

DMSO will be:

= 10\times 1.1004

= 11.004 \ g

The total mass of mixture will be:

= 90+11.004

= 101.004 \ g

Density of mixture will be:

= \frac{Mass}{Volume}

= \frac{101.004}{100}

= 1.01004 \ g/mL

hence,

Specific gravity of mixture will be:

= \frac{Density \ of \ mixture}{Density \ of \ water}

= \frac{1.01004}{1}

= 1.0100

Calculate the Lattice Energy of KCl(s) given the following data using the Born-Haber cycle: ΔHsublimation K = 79.2 kJ/mol IE1 K
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Explanation:

  The following equation relates to Born-Haber cycle

\triangle H_f = S + \frac{1}{2} B + IE_M - EA_X+ U_L

Where

\triangle H_f is enthalpy of formation

S is enthalpy of sublimation

B is bond enthalpy

IE_M is ionisation enthalpy of metal

EA_X is electron affinity of non metal atom

U_L is lattice energy

Substituting the given values we have

-435.7 = 79.2 + 1/2 x 242.8 + 418.7 - 348 +U_L

U_L = - 707 KJ / mol

A food handler puts a food thermometer into a pan of green bean casserole that is being hot-held on the serving line. The thermo
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Yes , the food can be served.

Explanation:

Given the food here is served at 146°F

  • According to FDA(US food and drug administration) Hot foods should be kept at an internal temperature of 140°F or warmer.
  • This is the temperature recquired to maintain the bacteria without spoiling the food .
  • Dishes related to eggs like quiches or soufflés should be served at a minimum of 165°F

Also given that the temperature of the food being served is 146°F which is greater than 140°F(which is the minimum value) Therefore the food can be served.
