The scratched tin can with the iron will more rapidly corrode the iron than the tin.

<h3>What is corrosion?</h3>

The corrosion can be given as the process of the oxidation of the metal into the more stable metal oxide. The chemical oxidation of the metal is attained with the surrounding available oxygen or the water vapors.

The reactivity of the Iron for the oxidation is more as compared to the tin from the reactivity series. Therefore if both tin and iron are exposed to corrosion, iron will be more rapidly corroded.

express in word equation and chemical equation of the chemical reaction when potassium chlorate is heated.​
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Word equation: <u>Potassium chlorate → Potassium chloride + Oxygen</u>

Chemical equation: <u>KClO₃ → KCl + O₂</u>

Explanation:

<em>This is decomposition reaction so there will only be one reactant, which is potassium chlorate.</em>

The chemical equation will be:

KClO₃ → KCl + O₂

The balanced equation would be:

2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂

The word equation will be:

Potassium chlorate → Potassium chloride + Oxygen

An alkaline battery produces electrical energy according to the following equation.
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Part a: limiting reactant MnO₂

Part b: 12.43 g of Zn(OH)₂

Explanation:

Part a

Data given:

mass of Zn = 37.0 g

mass of MnO₂ = 21.5 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Given Reaction

        Zn(s) + 2 MnO₂(s) + H₂O(l) ---------->Zn(OH)₂(s) + Mn₂O₃(s)

To determine the limiting reactant first we will look at the reaction

         Zn(s)  +  2 MnO₂(s) + H₂O(l) ---------->Zn(OH)₂(s) + Mn₂O₃(s)

          1 mol     2 mol

Convert moles to mass

molar mass of Zn = 65.4 g/mol

Mass of MnO₂ = 55 + 2 (16) = 55 + 32 = 87 g/mol

So,

       Zn(s)          +      2 MnO₂(s)    +    H₂O(l) ----------> Zn(OH)₂(s) + Mn₂O₃(s)

1 mol (65.4 g/mol)    2 mol (87 g/mol)

       65 g                        174 g

So its clear from the reaction that 65 g Zn react with 174 g of MnO₂.

now if we look at the given amounts the amount MnO₂ is less then the amount of Zn but in actual calculation amount of MnO₂ is more then amount of zinc.

So, for MnO₂ if we calculate the needed amount of zinc

So apply unity formula

           65 g Zn react ≅ 174 g of MnO₂

            X g of Zn ≅ 21.5 g of MnO₂

Do cross multiplication

           X g Zn react = 65 g x 21.5 g / 174 g

           X g of Zn ≅ 8.032 g

So, 8.032 g of zinc will react out of 37.0 grams. the remaining will be in excess.

So MnO₂ will be consumed completely an it will be limiting reactant.

____________

part b

Data given:

mass of Zn = 37.0 g

mass of MnO₂ = 21.5 g

Mass of Zn(OH)₂  produced = ?

Given Reaction

        Zn(s) + 2 MnO₂(s) + H₂O(l) ---------->Zn(OH)₂(s) + Mn₂O₃(s)

Solution:

As from the part A we come to know that MnO₂ is limiting reactant, so the amount of Zn(OH)₂ will depend on the amount of MnO₂.

So first we convert mass of MnO₂ to moles

Formula Used

        no. of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

Mass of MnO₂ = 55 + 2 (16)

Mass of MnO₂ = 55 + 32 = 87 g/mol

Put values in the above equation

        no. of moles = 21.5 g / 87 g/mol

        no. of moles = 0.25 moles

Now,

Look at the reaction

         Zn(s)  +  2 MnO₂(s) + H₂O(l) ---------->Zn(OH)₂(s) + Mn₂O₃(s)

                        2 mol                                       1 mol  

So its clear from the reaction that 2 mole of MnO₂ gives 1 mole of Zn(OH)₂

then how many moles of Zn(OH)₂ will be produce by 0.25 moles of MnO₂

So.

apply unity formula

         2 mol of MnO₂ ≅ 1 mole of Zn(OH)₂

            0.25 moles of MnO₂  ≅ X mole of Zn(OH)₂

Do cross multiplication

           X mole of Zn(OH)₂ = 1 mole x 0.25 mol x  / 2 mol

         X mole of Zn(OH)₂  ≅ 0.125

Now Conver moles of  Zn(OH)₂  to mass

Formula used

         mass in grams = no. of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of  Zn(OH)₂

Molar mass of  Zn(OH)₂ = 65.4 + 2 (16 + 1)

Molar mass of  Zn(OH)₂ = 65.4 + 2 (17)

Molar mass of  Zn(OH)₂ = 65.4 + 34 = 99.4 g/mol

Put values in above equation

        mass in grams = 0.125 mol x 99.4 g/mol  

        mass in grams = 12.43 g

So,

12.43 g of Zn(OH)₂  will be produce.

Which statement best describes the properties of metals?
topjm [15]
<span>The only statement that states a fact about metals is the first option, letter A. They are shiny and bend without breaking. Choices B-D are wrong because metals are not insulators but are god conductors of heat and electricity. Metals can be flattened but they are not brittle.</span>
