Answer:

Explanation:

Part A

Balancing means that the same number of elements on one side of the equation must be the same as the number of elements on the other side.

You need 3 carbons on the right side because right now there is only one. Try putting a 3 in front of the CO2 and see if the oxygens come into balance as well.

Al2(CO3)3 ⟶ Al2O3 + ___CO2

Al2(CO3)3 ⟶ Al2O3 + 3CO2

Balance check

Element Left Right

Al 2 2

Carbon(C) 3 3

Oxygen 9 3 + 6 = 9

And it is balanced.

Part B

It's a decomposition of some kind. Two smaller molecules are created from one larger one.

I think it is decomposition because it processes in which chemical species break up into simpler parts.

3. At a pressure of 405 kPa, the volume of a gas is 6.00 cm

monitta

The pressure gets increased to 486 kPa from 405 kPa, when the volume is decreased from 6 cm³ to 4 cm³.

Explanation:

In the present problem, the temperature is said to remain at constant and there is change in the pressure. So according to Boyle's law, the relationship between pressure and volume of any gaseous objects are inversely related to each other. In other words, the pressure attained by gas molecules in a container will be inversely proportional to the volume of the gas molecules occupied in the container, at constant temperature.

$V=\frac{1}{P}$

So, if two volumes V₁ and V₂ are considered, then their respective pressure will be represented as P₁ and P₂. Then, as per Boyle's law,

$V_{1}P_{1}=V_{2}P_{2}$

So let us consider, V₁ = 6 cm³ and V₂ = 4 cm³ and pressure P₁ = 405 kPa and we have to determine P₂.

Then, $6*405=5*P_{2}\\ \\P_{2}=\frac{2430}{5} =486 kPa$

So, the pressure at new volume of 4 cm³ is 486 kPa. It can be seen that as there is decrease in the volume, there is an increase in the pressure. So it satisfied the Boyle's law.

Thus, the pressure gets increased to 486 kPa from 405 kPa, when the volume is decreased from 6 cm³ to 4 cm³.

The molar solubility of ag2s is 1.26 × 10-16 m in pure water. calculate the ksp for ag2s.

MAXImum [283]

Answer is: Ksp for silver sulfide is 8.00·10⁻⁴⁸.
Reaction of dissociation: Ag₂S(s) → 2Ag⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq).
s(Ag₂S) = s(S²⁻) = 1.26·10⁻¹⁶ M.
s(Ag⁺) = 2s(Ag₂S) = 2.52·10⁻¹⁶ M; equilibrium concentration of silver cations.
Ksp = s(Ag⁺)² · s(S²⁻).
Ksp = (2.52·10⁻¹⁶ M)² · 1.26·10⁻¹⁶ M.
Ksp = 6.35·10⁻³² M² · 1.26·10⁻¹⁶ M.
Ksp = 8.00·10⁻⁴⁸ M³.

Gallium (Ga) consists of two naturally occurring isotopes with masses of 68.926 and 70.925 amu. (a) How many protons and neutron

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

$neutrons_{Ga-69}=38\\\\neutrons_{Ga-71}=40$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons but different atomic mass, we can compute the number of neutrons by subtracting the number of protons to the atomic mass of the isotope; thus, for Ga-69 and Ga-71 (rounded up to whole numbers), we obtain:

$neutrons_{Ga-69}=69-31=38\\\\neutrons_{Ga-71}=71-31=40$

Best regards!
