Answer:

The balanced chemical equation would be as follows:

Mg + O2 → MgO2

We are given the amounts of the reactants. We need to determine first which one is the limiting reactant. We do as follows:

62.0 g Mg (1 mol / 24.31 g ) = 2.55 mol Mg

55.5 g O2 ( 1 mol / 32 g ) = 1.74 mol O2 -----> consumed completely and therefore the limiting reactant

2.55 mol - 1.74 mol O2( 1 mol Mg / 1 mol O2 ) = 0.81 mol Mg excess
