I assume you mean 40.59 grams of aluminum.
40.59 grams Al (1 mole Al/26.98 grams)(6.022 X 10^23/1 mole Al)
= 9.05978 X 10^23 atoms in that mass aluminum
9.05978 X 10^23 atoms (1 mole Mg/6.022 X 10^23)(24.31 grams/1mole Mg)
= 36.57 grams of magnesium
One way to look at this is to realize that 6g of C is half a mole of carbon. You automatically realize that that half a mole of Mg will give you the same number of Mg atoms as half a mole of C. Your answer is half a mole or the Atomic Mass of Mg in grams divided in half or approximately 12.15g.
You can also solve this using the factor label method. Learning this method will help ( if you plan to continue in Chemistry. In this method, you set up a mathematical problem. 6gC (1 mole C/12 g C) (24.3g Mg/1mole Mg) = 12g Mg
Remember Chemists deal with moles. A mole is 6.02 X1023. The mass number of an element equals the mass of one atom in atomic mass units or the mass of one mole of that element in grams. Remember to check for significant figures.
Since magnesium and calcium have the same molar mass, 16.2g of calcium would contain the same number of atoms as 16.2g of magnesium.
16.2 g Ca (6.02 x 1023 at / 40.08 g) = 2.43 x 1023 atoms 2.43 x 1023 at Mg (24.31 g / 6.02 x 1023 at) = 9.81 grams
The formula unit contain 1 calcium atom, 1 magnesium atom, 2 carbon atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.
149 g of calcium contain 22,39.10e23 atoms.
This compound is calcium nitrate. Each formula unit will contain 9 atoms.
In a molecule of calcium (Ca), there are no atoms of oxygen. Calcium itself does not contain any oxygen atoms in its molecular formula.
Magnesium phosphide (Mg3P2) contains 2 atoms of phosphorus.
1. An element contain only specific atoms of this element and no other atoms. 2. Compounds as calcium aluminates contain both aluminum and calcium.
Magnesium nitride contain two nitrogen atoms and three magnesium atoms.
The molecule contain two atoms: Mg and O.
Most minerals are made of various combinations of elements, with common elements including oxygen, silicon, aluminum, and iron. These elements combine in specific structures to form minerals with unique properties.
This compound is calcium nitrate. Each formula unit will contain 9 atoms.
The formula unit contain 1 calcium atom, 1 magnesium atom, 2 carbon atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.
No. In order to be a calcium compound, it must have calcium in it. Magnesium Acetate is made up of magnesium, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms. Acetate is an ion with the chemical formula, C2H2O2 (technically CH2COO- due to the fact that it's a carboxylate), two carbon, two hydrogen and two oxygen atoms. So no, there is no calcium atoms present.
149 g of calcium contain 22,39.10e23 atoms.
61,5 g calcium contain 9,241.10e23 atoms.
This compound is calcium nitrate. Each formula unit will contain 9 atoms.
