One method to synthesize ionic solids is by the heating of two reactants at high temperatures. Consider the reaction of FeO with TiO2 to form FeTiO3. Determine the amount of each of the two reactants to prepare 2.500 g FeTiO3, assuming the reaction goes to completion. (b) Calculate the formula weight of FeTiO3.

Hey, everyone were asked what is the molar mass of magnesium carbonate produced from the synthesis of magnesium oxide and carbon dioxide. Looking at our periodic table, we can start off with magnesium and since we have one of magnesium, we're going to multiply this by its atomic mass of 24.305 g per mole. This will get us to 24.305. Next looking at our carbon, we have one of carbon and we're going to multiply this by its atomic mass of 12.01 g per mole. This will get us to 12.01 g per mole. And lastly looking at our oxygen, we have three of oxygen and we're going to multiply it by its atomic mass of 16.0 g per mole. This will get us to a total of 48. Now to get our molar mass of magnesium carbonate, we can add this all up and we get a total of 84. g per mole. Which is going to be our final answer. So I hope this made sense. And let us know if you have any questions
