- The present average concentration (mass percent) of magnesium ions in seawater is 0.13%. A chemistry textbook estimates that if 1.00 × 108 tons Mg were taken out of the sea each year, it would take one million years for the Mg concentration to drop to 0.12%. Do sufficient calculations to either verify or refute this statement. Assume that Earth is a sphere with a diameter of 8000 mi, 67% of which is covered by oceans to a depth of 1 mi, and that no Mg is washed back into the oceans at any time.arrow_forwardTwo general chemistry students working together in the lab weigh out 0.832 g of CaCl2 2 H2O into a crucible. After heating the sample for a short time and allowing the crucible to cool, the students determine that the sample has a mass of 0.739 g. They then do a quick calculation. On the basis of this calculation, what should they do next? (a) Congratulate themselves on a job well done. (b) Assume the bottle of CaCl2 2 H2O was mislabeled; it actually contained something different. (c) Heat the crucible again, and then reweigh it.arrow_forwardWhich of these statements are qualitative? Which are quantitative? Explain your choice in each case. (a) Sodium is a silvery-white metal.
