Upon burning Mg in air, magnesium oxide and magnesium nitride are formed. The correct statement about magnesium nitride is: O a. It does not react with water. O b. It has the empirical formula MgN. O c. It reacts with water to give Mg(OH)2 and NH3. d. It has the empirical formula Mg2N3. e. Existence of magnesium nitride in the sample will lead to higher O to Mg ratio.

The space shuttle environmental control system handles excess CO2 (which the astronauts breathe out; it is 4.0% by mass of exhaled air) by reacting it with lithium hydroxide, LiOH, pellets to form lithium carbonate, Li2CO3, and water. If there are seven astronauts on board the shuttle, and each exhales 20. L of air pee minute, how long could clean air be generated if there were 25,000 g of LiOH pellets available for each shuttle mission? Assume the density of air is 0.0010 g/mL.
