2Fe(s) + 3Cl₂(g) →2FeCl₃(s)

mol Fe = 15.52 : 56 g/mol = 0.277

mol FeCl₃ = mol Fe = 0.277 (same coefficient)

mass FeCl₃ = 0.277 x 162.2 g/mol = 44.93 g

% yield = 34.5 : 44.93 = 76.79 %

if a geologist found two fossils of different species buried next to each other in a rock layer, he or she might hypothezise tha

vaieri [72.5K]

This would be true.

The reason why this answer would be true is because a fossil's position in the rock layers determine how long they died and were preserved. If the fossils were right next to each other, then that means both organisms were preserved at the same time.

When the equation Sn + HNO₃ → SnO₂ + NO₂ + H₂O is balanced in acidic solution, what is the smallest whole-number coefficient for

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given reaction we first assign the oxidation state for each species:

$Sn^0 + H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 + N^{4+}O^{2-}_2 + H^+_2O^-$

Whereas the half reactions are:

$Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O$

Next, we exchange the transferred electrons:

$1\times(Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-)\\\\4\times (H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O)\\\\\\Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +4e^-\rightarrow 4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O$

Afterwards, we add them to obtain:

$Sn^0+2H_2O+4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O$

By adding and subtracting common terms we obtain:

$Sn^0+4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+2H_2O$

Finally, by removing the oxidation states we have:

$Sn + 4HNO_3 \rightarrow SnO_2 + 4NO_2 + 2H_2O$

Therefore, the smallest whole-number coefficient for Sn is 1.

Regards.

Identify the base-conjugate acid pair in this balanced equation:

Elan Coil [88]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

NH3/NH4+

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

From the equation;

NH3(aq)+HNO3(aq)→NH4+(aq)+NO3−(aq)

NH3 is the base; while NH4+ is the conjugate acid

HNO3 is the acid; while NO3- is the conjugate base

The conjugate base of a Brønsted-Lowry acid is species that is formed after an acid donates a proton while the conjugate acid of a Brønsted-Lowry base is the species formed after a base accepts a proton.
