Question

1.0 g of magnesium is burnt with 0.56 g $O_{2}$ in a closed vessel. Which reactant is left in excess and how much?
(At. wt. Mg = 24,O = 16 )

Moderate

Solution

$n_{Mg} = \frac{1}{24} = 0.0416 moles$
$n_{O_{2}} = \frac{0.56}{32} = 0.0175 moles$
the balanced equation is

$∴ Mass of Mg left in excess = 0.0066 \times 24 = 0.16 g$
