thanxx alotFor Q1 i, see my post above.
For 3 (c)
You have take any coordinate from the graph (except for the anomalous point). Say you took the coordinate (1.50, 2.45)
You have to calculate the no. of moles of both the Mg and MgO
So for Mg= 1.50/24.3= 0.06 mol
For MgO= 2.45/40.3= 0.06 mol
ratio 1:1
If we see the equation for the reaction of Mg with O2:
Mg + 1/2 O2 ----> MgO
You can see that the Mg and the MgO are in a 1:1 ratio. And we calculated the moles of a point, which was also 1:1, hence it corresponds to the formula of MgO
