Which statement describes a chemical property of the element magnesium?(1) Magnesium is malleable.
(2) Magnesium conducts electricity.
(3) Magnesium reacts with an acid.
(4) Magnesium has a high boiling point.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Answer: option 3) magnesioum reacts with an acid.


Justification:


1) Malleability, conduction of electricity, and boiling point are physical properties.


2) Maleability is the ability to be transformed into foil. It is just a change in form. So, it is a physical property.


3) The metals conduct electricity in virtue of the array of the atoms, which permtis the flow of the electrons, but it does not involve a chemical change, so it remains being a physical proerty.


4) Boling point is the temperature at which a substance passes from liquid state to gas state, which are just different forms of the same substance. So, it is other physical property.


5) Reaction with an acid is indeed a chemical transformation: the metal (magnessium) will form a chemical bond with some spieces of the acid to form a new compound. This is a chemical reaction in virtue of the chemcial properties of the substance (its ability to react with acids)
Answer 2
Answer:

Magnesium reacts with an acid.

Sandy went to the candy store and wanted to use dimensional analysis she had learned in class. She only had a certain amount of money to spend. In terms of price, she figured out the following: 6 lollipops = 5 gum balls, 10 lemon heads = 16 redhots, 8 gum balls = 9 lemon heads. If sandy knows she could buy 3 lollipops, how many lemonheads could she buy with the same money?

How many moles of ethyl alcohol, C2H6O, are in a 18.0 g sample?

Answers

To find moles in this sample, you would divide grams by molar mass of ethyl alcohol
(18.0g)/(46.07g/mol) = 0.391mol C2H6O

Write the correct formula for the compound formed by each of the following pairs of ions.1.) Ni^2+, SO4^2-
2.) Al^3+, O^2-
3.) Ca^2, ClO3-
4.) NH4+, P^3-
5.) Cu+, NO3-

Answers

Answer:

1.) NiSO₄; 2.) Al₂O₃; 3.) Ca(ClO₃)₂; 4.) (NH₄)₃P; 5.) CuNO₃

 Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the criss-cross method to work out the formulas. The steps are

  1. Write the symbols of the anion and cation.
  2. Criss-cross the numbers of the charges to become the subscripts of the other ion (as in the image).
  3. Write the formula with the new subscripts.
  4. Divide the subscripts by their highest common factor.
  5. Omit all subscripts that are 1.

If we use this method, the formula for the compound formed from Na⁺, SO₃²⁻ becomes Na₂SO₃.

1.) Ni²⁺ +  SO₄²⁻  ⟶ Ni₂(SO₄)₂ ⟶ NiSO₄

2.) Al³⁺ +  O²⁻     ⟶  Al₂O₃

3.) Ca²⁺ + ClO₃⁻ ⟶ Ca(ClO₃)₂  

4.) NH₄⁺ + P³⁻    ⟶ (NH₄)₃P  

5.) Cu⁺ + NO₃⁻   ⟶ CuNO₃
