On the first day of your new job as a chemist, you are given a bottle of magnesium sulfate and asked to make 30 ml of 0.3 m mgso4. the formula on the bottle is mgso4∗7h2o (also known as epsom salt). calculate the amount of salt you need (in milligrams).

The answer to your question is 15500 mg of MgSO₄ 7H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Volume = 30 ml

Concentration = 0.3 M

Formula MgSO4∗7H2O

Process

1.- Calculate the number of moles needed

 Molarity = moles / volume

Solve for moles

 moles = Molarity x volume

Substitution

 moles = 0.3 x 0.03 l

 moles = 0.009 moles of MgSO₄

2.- Calculate the molecular mass of MgSO4∗7H2O

molecular mass = 24 + 32 + 64 + 14 + 112

                           = 246 g

3.- Get the proportion MgSO4 :7H2O, this proportion is 1 : 7

4.- Calculate the amount of MgSO4∗7H2O

Simplification

   15.5 g = 15500 mg

answer: atomic mass was originally used to arrange elements on the periodic table, but is no longer used to organize the modern version.

explanation:

originally atomic mass was used to arrange elements on the periodic table from left to right in a row. each column then shows similar properties of elements of a group.

in modern periodic table, the atoms are arranged in increasing atomic number. as atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom which is unique for every atom.
