Answer:
80.6g
Explanation:
2Mg+O
2
→2MgO
The atomic masses of Mg and O are 24.3 g/mol and 16 g/mol respectively.
The molar mass of MgO=24.3+16=40.3g/mol
Number of moles is the ratio of mass to molar/atomic mass.
48.6 g of Mg corresponds to
24.3
48.6
=2 moles
64 g of O2 corresponds to
2×16
64
=2 moles
2 moles of Mg will react with 1 mole of O
2
to produce 2 moles of MgO.
Since 2 moles of O
2
are present, O
2
is excess reagent and Mg is limiting reagent.
2 moles of Mg will give 2 moles of MgO.
Mass of MgO =2×40.3=80.6g
