How many moles of hydrogen are in the sample?
Round your answer to 4 significant digits.

1.56 mol H₂

Explanation:

Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂

There are 4 Si moles per Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ mol. With that in mind we can calculate how many Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ moles are there in the sample, using the given number of silicon moles:

3.120 mol Si * = 0.78 mol Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂

Then we can convert Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ moles into hydrogen moles, keeping in mind that there are 2 hydrogen moles per Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ mol:

0.78 mol Mg₃(Si₂O₅)₂(OH)₂ * 2 = 1.56 mol H₂

For cyclohexane compounds drawn in a chair conformation:   -axial bonds are vertical  -equatorial bonds are parallel to two bonds within the ring.  thus, as i assume the chair conformation is drawn:   -the x group is in an axial position, as are the five other vertical bonds.  -three axial bonds are on the top face of the ring  -the other three axial bonds are on the bottom face  the position of the second substituent on each ring carbon is equatorial.  gauche groups must be on an adjacent carbon such as carbon 6 and carbon 2, and also gauche groups are rotated by 60 degrees relative to each other.  drawing the newman projections for c1–c2 and c1–c6 aids in visualizing the groups that are gauche to the y group on c1.  click this link and watch some academic videos that may you more understand the topic
