· On June 14, 2016, a fire erupted in an industrial complex in the city of Maywood (L.A. County). The complex contained a large stockpile of magnesium metal, which reacts vigorously with hot water. Thus, fire fighters let the fire burn itself out instead of dousing it with water. (a) (2 points) Write the balanced chemical reaction of magnesium metal reacting with water (you will need to predict the products). Include phases. (b) (2 points) Identify the oxidizing agent and reducing agent for the reaction in part (a). (c) (10 points) Suppose fire fighters started to douse the fire with 153 L of water (Assume dн20= 0.959 g/mL) before realizing they should stop and that there were 121000 g of magnesium metal in the complex. How many liters of gas were produced at 2.05 atm and 835 °C? Assume ideal gas behavior. How many moles of excess reactant remain? Use an I.C.F. table to show your work.
