Usually (ignoring transition metals, as they kinda get trickier), the element's valency can be found out by its group (column) number. Usually, we ignore the transition metal block while counting these columns, so Aluminium is in group 3, for example. Since Aluminium is in group 3, it has 3 valence electrons.
<span>Divide the number of grams present in the sample by copper's gram atomic weight to find the number of gram atomic weights present. Then multiply that result by Avogadro's Number: 6.022137 x 10^23 atoms/gram atomic weight.1,200 g/(63.54 g/gram atomic weight) ? 18.885741 gram-atomic weights. Hope this helps. </span>
The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:
Write a balanced chemical equation for each single replacement reaction that takes place in aqueous solution. write no reaction if a reaction does not occur
1.) Zn + PbCl₂
2.) Cu + Fe(NO₃)₂
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>For 1:</u> The reaction does occur.
<u>For 2:</u> The reaction does not occur.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element.
The reactivity of metal is determined by a series known as reactivity series. The metals lying above in the series are more reactive than the metals which lie below in the series.

For the given options:
Zinc is more reactive than lead as it lies above in the series. So, it will displace lead from its chemical equation.
The chemical equation for the reaction of zinc and lead chloride follows:

Copper is less reactive than iron as it lies below in the series. So, it will not displace iron from its chemical equation.
The chemical equation for the reaction of copper and iron (II) nitrate follows:

Answer:
The dependent variable is the bushes of potatoes while the soil is an independent variable.
Explanation:
An experiment can be defined as an investigation which typically involves the process of manipulating an independent variable (the cause) in order to be able to determine or measure the dependent variable (the effect).
This ultimately implies that, an experiment can be used by scientists to show or demonstrate how a condition causes or gives rise to another i.e cause and effect, influence, behavior, etc in a sample.
Cause and effect can be defined as the relationship between two things or events in which an occurrence one (cause) leads to the occurrence of another (effect).
In an experiment , the variable being manipulated by an experimenter is known as an independent variable while the dependent variable is the event expected to change when the independent variable is manipulated.
Hence, the dependent variable is the bushes of potatoes while the soil is an independent variable.
