You start with 2.5g of magnesium and add it to 400mL of CO2 at 23 o C and 1atm. How many grams of magnesium oxide will be formed?

0.664 g are formed by the reaction.

Explanation:

First of all, we determine the reaction:

Mg + CO₂  →  MgO  + CO

We need to determine the moles of the CO₂ by the Ideal Gases Law.

We convert to L, the volume → 400 mL = 0.4L

T° → 23°C + 273 = 296K

P . V = n . R .T

n = P . V / R .T

n = (1 atm . 0.4L) / (0.082 . 296K) → 0.0165 moles

Moles of Mg → 2.5 g . 1mol / 24.3g = 0.103 moles

As ratio is 1:1, CO₂ is the limiting reactant.

For 1 mol of Mg, we need 1 mol of gas

Then, for 0.103 moles of Mg, we need 0.103 moles of gas, but we only have 0.0165 moles.

If we see the product side, ratio is also 1:1

0.0165 moles of CO₂ must produce 0.0165 moles of MgO.

We convert the moles to mass → 0.0165 mol . 40.3 g /1mol = 0.664 g

asking the goog might u get an answer

both adhesion and cohesion are attractions.

they are different in that adhesion is the force of attraction between the molecules of two different substances, whereas cohesion is the force of attraction between molecules of the same substance.

possible examples include capillary action, in which the adhesion between water and glass causes the water to rise in a narrow tube against the force of gravity.

because of hydrogen bonding, water is extremely cohesive.

this causes molecules on the surface of water to be drawn inward, which is why drops of water form beads on smooth surfaces.

hope this .
