Sodium metal (Na) reacts with chlorine gas ( Cl2 ) to produce solid sodium chloride (NaCl).

1 answer:

3 0

The unbalanced equations are the equations with different atomic numbers on the sides of the reaction. The unbalanced reaction is Na + Cl₂ → NaCl

<h3>What are balanced equations?</h3>

Balanced equations are the chemical reaction representation that has an equal number of the atomic number of the same species on the left and the right side of the reaction.

An unbalanced equation between sodium metal and chloride can be shown as:

Na + Cl₂ → NaCl

The equation is unbalanced as the number of chloride ions is more on the reactant side than the product side.

The balanced reaction will be:

2 Na + Cl₂ 2NaCl

What is the concentration of no3- ions in a solution prepared by dissolving 15.0 g of ca(no3)2 in enough water to produce 300. m

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Ca(NO3)2 -------> Ca²⁺ +2NO3⁻

M(Ca(NO3)2)= M(Ca) + M(N) + 6M(O)= 40.0 +14.0 +6*16.0 = 150 g/mol

15.0 g Ca(NO3)2 * 1mol/150 g = 0. 100 mol Ca(NO3)2

Ca(NO3)2 -------> Ca²⁺ +2NO3⁻
1 mol 2 mol
0.100 mol 0.200 mol

We have 0.2 mol NO3⁻ in 300. mL=0.300 L of solution,
so
0.200 mol NO3⁻ / 0.300 L solution ≈ 0.667 mol NO3⁻ /L solution = 0.667 M

Concentration of NO3⁻ is 0.667 M.

A chemical change is like a physical change because no new substance is formed. Agree or DIsagree and reason why

aleksandrvk [35]

I disagree, because a physical change changes the form, and a chemical change is a process where one or more substances are altered into new substances.

Question 2 of 50

wolverine [178]

The thermal decomposition of calcium carbonate will produce 14 g of calcium oxide. The stoichiometric ratio of calcium carbonate to calcium oxide is 1:1, therefore the number of moles of calcium carbonate decomposed is equal to the number of moles of calcium oxide formed.

Further Explanation:

To solve this problem, follow the steps below:

Write the balanced chemical equation for the given reaction.
Convert the mass of calcium carbonate into moles.
Determine the number of moles of calcium oxide formed by using the stoichiometric ratio for calcium oxide and calcium carbonate based on the coefficient of the chemical equation.
Convert the number of moles of calcium oxide into mass.

Solving the given problem using the steps above:

STEP 1: The balanced chemical equation for the given reaction is:

$CaCO_{3} \rightarrow \ CaO \ + \ CO_{2}$

STEP 2: Convert the mass of calcium carbonate into moles using the molar mass of calcium carbonate.

$mol \ CaCO_{3} \ = 25 \ g \ CaCO_{3} \ (\frac{1 \ mol \ CaCO_{3}}{100.0869 \ g \ CaCO_{3}})\\ \\\boxed {mol \ CaCO_{3} \ = 0.2498 \ mol}$

STEP 3: Use the stoichiometric ratio to determine the number of moles of CaO formed.

For every mole of calcium carbonate decomposed, one more of a calcium oxide is formed. Therefore,

$mol \ CaO \ = 0.2498 \ mol$

STEP 4: Convert the moles of CaO into mass of CaO using its molar mass.

$mass \ CaO \ = 0.2498 \ mol \ CaO \ (\frac{56.0774 \ g \ CaO}{1 \ mol \ CaO})\\ \\mass \ CaO \ = 14.008 \ g$

Since there are only 2 significant figures in the given, the final answer must have the same number of significant figures.

Therefore,

$\boxed {mass \ CaO \ = 14 \ g}$

Below is a word equation. Please follow directions for each part below.

Pavel [41]

HCl + NaOH ---> NaCl + H20

If you follow guidance from other questions I have already answered for you, you will see that the above equation is balanced as it is.
