    relationship between the mass of magnesium and mass of oxygen once the magnesium has been heated and reacted with the oxygen. There will be 3 variables in this experiment. The independent variable will be the mass of magnesium ribbon as different measurements will be taken and used for each trial. The dependant variable will be the mass of Magnesium Oxide‚ this is a measured variable as the mass of oxygen can be calculated and will enable us to determine the formula for Magnesium Oxide. The controlled variable

    The Law of Definite Proportions states that a chemical compound contains the same element in exactly the same proportions by mass regardless of the size of the sample or source of the compound. This relates to the magnesium oxide lab because we tested out this theory to see if it is true that the law of definite proportions says that a chemical compound contains the same element in exactly the same proportions by mass regardless of the size of the sample or source of the compound. In this experiment

    Composition of Magnesium Oxide Aleshia Otieno Mr. Taylor SCH3U-01 Lab #4 Monday‚ November 17‚ 2014 Introduction Percentage composition is the percentage of a formula mass represented by each element. Percentage composition compares the mass of one part of a substance to the mass of the whole. The law of definite proportions states that a specific compound always contains the same amount of elements in fixed proportions by mass. By finding the percent composition of magnesium oxide one will
