Calculate the volume of oxygen gas required to react completely with 10g of magnesium to make magnesium oxide

Explanation:

The idea here is that chemical reactions must obey the Law of Mass Conservation, which states that when a chemical reaction takes place, the total mass of the reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products.

In your case, magnesium metal and oxygen gas are the reactants and magnesium oxide is the product.

You know that

10.0 g

of magnesium take part in this reaction and that

16.6 g

of magnesium oxide are produced.

You can say that the difference between the mass of the product and the total mass of the reactants, i.e. the mass of magnesium and the mass of oxygen gas, will give you the mass of oxygen gas that took part in the reaction.

The answer is rounded to one decimal place

what is the general relationship between a galaxy's distance from earth and its speed?

the answer is:

the farther away a galaxy is from us, the faster it is moving away from us.

they it depends on if one believes about radioactivity, they make a geiger counter beep but maybe it was going to beep anyway electronics do wierd things all the time or it was programmed to beep near certain metals.
