The formula mass of magnesium perchlorate (Mg(ClO4)2) can be calculated by adding the atomic masses of magnesium, chlorine, and oxygen in the compound. The atomic mass of magnesium is 24.305 amu, chlorine is 35.453 amu, and oxygen is 16.00 amu. Therefore, the formula mass of magnesium perchlorate is 24.305 + 2(35.453) + 8(16.00) = 223.21 amu.
The formula mass of magnesium phosphate (Mg3(PO4)2) is calculated by adding the atomic masses of each element in the formula. The atomic mass of magnesium (Mg) is approximately 24.31 g/mol, phosphorus (P) is about 30.97 g/mol, and oxygen (O) is around 16.00 g/mol. Therefore, the formula mass of magnesium phosphate is approximately 262.86 g/mol.
The relative molecular mass of magnesium chloride is approximately 60. The molar mass is therefore 60g per mole. Therefore there is 0.42mol of formula units in 2.5 grams.The formula mass of MgCl2 is 24.3 + 2(35.5) = 95.3Amount of MgCl2 = 2.5/95.3 = 0.0262molThere are 0.0262 moles of formula unit in 2.5 grams of magnesium chloride.To get the number (not in moles), multiply the amount in moles by the Avogadro's constant.
To calculate the number of formula units in 21.2g of magnesium chloride (MgCl2), first calculate the molar mass of MgCl2 which is 95.21 g/mol. Then, divide the given mass by the molar mass to get the number of moles (0.223 mol). As there is one mole of MgCl2 in 1 formula unit, 0.223 mol is equal to 0.223 formula units.
The formula mass for MgCl2 (magnesium chloride) is calculated by adding the atomic masses of magnesium (Mg) and chlorine (Cl). The atomic mass of Mg is 24.31 g/mol and the atomic mass of Cl is 35.45 g/mol. Multiplying the atomic mass of Cl by 2 (since there are 2 chlorine atoms in MgCl2) and adding it to the atomic mass of Mg gives a formula mass of 95.21 g/mol for MgCl2.

To find the mass of 24.6 formula units of magnesium oxide, we first need to determine the molar mass of magnesium oxide. Magnesium has a molar mass of approximately 24.3 g/mol, and oxygen has a molar mass of approximately 16.0 g/mol. Therefore, the molar mass of magnesium oxide (MgO) is 24.3 + 16.0 = 40.3 g/mol. Next, we multiply the molar mass of MgO by the number of formula units (24.6) to find the total mass: 40.3 g/mol x 24.6 = 992.38 grams. Therefore, the mass of 24.6 formula units of magnesium oxide is approximately 992.38 grams.
The law of constant proportion states that a chemical compound always contains its constituent elements in fixed ratio by mass. In the experiment to determine the empirical formula of magnesium oxide, magnesium is burned in oxygen, resulting in magnesium oxide. By measuring the mass of magnesium and the mass of oxygen reacted, the ratio of these two elements can be calculated. This ratio reflects the law of constant proportion, allowing the empirical formula of magnesium oxide to be determined, typically represented as MgO.

The gram formula mass of the less hydrated stable form of magnesium nitrate, Mg(NO3)2.2 H2O, is 184.35. This formula shows that each formula unit contains one magnesium atom. The gram atomic mass of magnesium is 24.305. Therefore, the percentage by mass of magnesium in this magnesium nitrate dihydrate is 100(24.305/184.35) or 13.038 %, to the justified number of significant digits.
The formula of magnesium sulphide is MgS, showing that a formula unit has one atom of each element. The gram atomic mass of magnesium is 24.305 and that of sulphur is 32.06. Therefore, when magnesium and sulphur are present in equal amounts by mass, sulphur is the limiting reactant. 1.0/32.06 or 0.031 moles of sulphur atoms are present. Therefore, the maximum amount of MgS that can result from reaction is 0.031 formula units of MgS. The gram formula mass of MgS is 56.365, so that 0.031 formula units of MgS will have a mass of 1.7 grams, to the justified number of significant digits.
