where mCO2 is the mass fraction of CO2 in the solution, and MWsolution, MWbrine, and MWCO2 are the molecular weight of the solution, of the brine, and of CO2, respectively. Considering the definition of density as shown on 5.5, equation 5.3 can be modified to equation 5.6. ρ_CO2=MW_CO2/V_CO2 (5.5) "1" /"ρ" _" solution" =("1-" "m" _"CO2" )/"ρ" _" brine" "+" "m" _"CO2" /〖"ρ" _"CO2" 〗_" " (5.6) where ρ solution and ρ brine are density of solution and brine, MW CO2 and ρm CO2 is…

Of the most abundant elements together 98 percent of the 8 elements form the mass of the earth’s crust, ocean and atmosphere. Two of the most abundant elements of the eight are calcium and magnesium. Calcium and magnesium are located on the periodic table located both in group 2 sharing the same family meaning that they share chemical property’s as well as the same valence electron because of their location and family relation to the period table. The alkaline metals are a reactive group of…

affect the chemical structure of the magnesium in the fire extinguishing process. However, a protective coat of magnesium oxide is formed on all the surface of the magnesium as it reacts very fast with air. This layer makes it hard for it continue burning. However, in case water is used when removing the residues even after several days, the fire may reignite. The water will firstly expose the surface of the magnesium residues to reaction and react with it (magnesium) to release flammable…

Aim: • To investigate the effects of on the rate of reaction of magnesium with different concentrations of Hydrochloric acid (HCl). • To investigate the effects of different surface areas of magnesium in its rate of reaction with hydrochloric acid (HCl). Introduction: The rate in which reactions occur between chemicals, such as Magnesium and Hydrochloric Acid, are effected by four main factors. These factors are temperature, concentration, the presence of a catalyst and the surface area of…

The Grignard reagent is an organometallic compound as it includes a carbon atom bound to magnesium and a halide, usually bromine. Grignard reagents must be prepared in an aprotic solvent, such as diethyl ether or THF, because the MgBr, is a strong nucleophile and thus a strong base. There must also not be any water in the solution for the same…

enough of a certain mineral. This can seriously affect one 's health. Two mineral deficiencies in humans are iron and magnesium. In this paper these two mineral deficiencies will be discussed. First, the significance of mineral deficiencies will be discussed. Then, the symptoms of these deficiencies will be observed. Next, this paper will explore the benefits of magnesium and iron. After that, studies and new findings involving these two mineral deficiencies will be examined. Methods of…

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to find the emperical formula of a compound made of magnesium and oxygen. We took a strip of magnesium and combusted it to figure out how much of the strip was magnesium by weighing the remaining ashes. The weight that wasn’t transferred to ashes was burnt off in the smoke as oxygen. To find the emperical formula, you had to take the average mass of both magnesium and oxygen and divide by the average mass to get the amount of mols in the compound.…

If heating magnesium in the presence of oxygen and they react completely, then the ionic compound’s empirical formula can be found using this equation by calculating the masses of magnesium and oxygen in this equation: Mg + O2 → MgxOy Since an ionic compound is the hopeful result of this lab, an ionic compound is a chemical compound comprising ions, which ions are an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of an electron. Ions can be negatively charged and called…

The atomic number of 45 belongs to the element rhodium which is derived from the Greek word Rhodon meaning rose. It was first discovered in 1803 by William Hyde Wollaston, an English chemist. it is known as one of the PGM (platinum-group metals). Canada, Russia and south Africa are one of the top three producers of rhodium as south Africa as main exporter. It is usually found together with other PGMs as ores mined in its reserves. People who love jewelries are often attracted to the rarity of…

A strip of magnesium (Mg) ribbon was cut with a scissor. Said piece had a length of 6 cm, and a weight of 0.071 g. The magnesium piece was rolled into a compact ribbon. After that, with copper turnings the mg piece was covered. Next, 700-mL of water was placed into a 1000-mL beaker. Then, the copper-wrapped magnesium was placed in the beaker. A 100-mL graduated cylinder was filled completely with water. After, said cylinder was covered with a small piece of paper towel over the entire rim, and…
