Zinc and magnesium metal each reacts with hydrochloric acid to make chloride salts of the respective metals, and hydrogen gas. A 10.00-g mixture of zinc and magnesium produces 0.5171 g of hydrogen gas upon being mixed with an excess of hydrochloric acid. Determine the percent magnesium by mass in the original mixture.
3.68 Magnesium is lighter than other structural metals, so it is increasingly important in the design of more efficient vehicles. Mg2+ ions are present in seawater, and the metal is often prepared by "harvesting" these ions and converting them to Mg metal. The average magnesium content of the oceans is about 1270 g Mg2+ per ton of seawater, and the density of seawater is about 1.03 g/mL. What is the molarity of Mg2+ ions in seawater? The design for a concept car calls for 103 kg of magnesium per vehicle. How many gallons of seawater would be required to supply enough magnesium to build one of these ears?

The great French chemist Antoine Lavoisier discovered the law of conservation of mass in part by doing a famous experiment in 1775. In this experiment they found that mercury(II) oxide, when heated, decompose into liquid mercury and an invisible and previously unknown substance: oxygen gas. A. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid mercury (II) oxide (HgO) into liquid mercury and gaseous dioxygen. B. Suppose 72 mL of dioxygen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 120°C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of mercury (II) oxide that must have reacted in grams. Round your answer to three significant digits.
