shown.
MgCO3 → MgO + CO2
How much magnesium carbonate is needed to make 5.0g of magnesium oxide?
А
3.5g
B 4.09
C 6.5g
D 10.59

Answers

Answer 1
The correct answer is b
Answer 2

The amount of 10.5 g magnesium carbonate is needed to make 5.0g of magnesium oxide.

So, option D is correct.

Given that, Magnesium carbonate decomposes on heating to form magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide as

                  MgCO₃ → MgO + CO₂

Molar mass of MgCO₃ = 24 + 12 + 48 = 84 g/mole

Molar mass of  MgO = 24 + 16 = 40g/mole

40 gram MgO is produced  from 84 gram of MgCO₃

1 gram of MgO produced  from  [tex]\frac{84}{40}=2.1[/tex] gram of MgCO₃

Therefore, 5 gram of MgO produced  from [tex](5*2.1=10.5gram)[/tex] of MgCO₃

Thus, option D is correct.
