Aluminum can be oxidized by $Li^{+}$ and $Ca^{2+}$

<h3>What is oxidizing?</h3>

Some of the metal corrodes (or oxidizes) and forms the corresponding metal oxide on the surface as a result of a chemical reaction between the metal surface and the oxygen in the air. The corrosion products that occur in some metals, like steel, are highly apparent and loose.

According to reactivity series (The array of metals in the descending order of their reactivities is referred to as the metals' reactivity series. It is sometimes referred to as the metals in the activity series.)

Lithium and calcium ions are more reactive than aluminum ion and they are less electronegative.

Since silver and tin are more electronegative than aluminum so, they cannot oxidize aluminum.

∴ $Li^{+}$ and $Ca^{+2}$ ions can oxidize aluminum.

GIVING BRAINLIEST One mole of hydrogen gas (H2), reacts with one mole of bromine Br2(g) to produce 2 moles of hydrogen bromide g

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The equation to show the the correct form to show the standard molar enthalpy of formation:

$\frac{1}{2}H_2(g) +\frac{1}{2}Br_2(l)\rightarrow HBr(g) ,\Delta H_{f}^o= -36.29 kJ$

Explanation:

The standard enthalpy of formation or standard heat of formation of a compound is the change of enthalpy during the formation of 1 mole of the substance from its constituent elements, with all substances in their standard states.

Given, that 1 mole of $H_2$ gas and 1 mole of $Br_2$ liquid gives 2 moles of HBr gas as a product.The reaction releases 72.58 kJ of heat.

$H_2(g) + Br_2(l)\rightarrow 2HBr(g) ,\Delta H_{f}^o= -72.58kJ$

Divide the equation by 2.

$\frac{1}{2}H_2(g) +\frac{1}{2}Br_2(l)\rightarrow HBr(g) ,\Delta H_{f}^o= -36.29 kJ$

The equation to show the the correct form to show the standard molar enthalpy of formation:

$\frac{1}{2}H_2(g) +\frac{1}{2}Br_2(l)\rightarrow HBr(g) ,\Delta H_{f}^o= -36.29 kJ$

What does Einstein’s theory of relativity expalain?

anygoal [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is D. How gravity interacts with planets

Explanation:

Einstein's theory of relativity formulated in 1915 introduces the following concepts:

- Formula E = mc2 (relationship between energy, mass, speed of light)

- How nuclear energy is produced

-After seeing a solar eclipse, gravity is interpreted geometrically (which is an effect of distortion)

-Relative time

Are elements always transparent

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

No, the elements are not always transparent.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The elements become transparent when the light passes through those elements. Transparency is caused because of the transmission and the passing of the light waves through these elements.

But the metals do not become transparent even when the light waves pass through these metals. Metals do not become transparent because the refractive index in them is very big.

a mineral a.has a chemical formula b. occurs naturally c. has a characteristic internal structure d.all of the above

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer: option d. all of the above.

Explanation:

A mineral is an element or a inorganic compound that existes in nature as solid cristals; usually combined with other minerals in ores.

Some examples of minerals, among many, are titania, wich is TiO2, zirconia, which is ZrO2, silica, which is SiO2, gold, Au, silver, Ag.

As you see the definition and examples given meet the whole features included in the stament: a. the have a chemical formula, b they occur naturally, and c.have a characteristic internal structure (that is the way how the atoms are arranged in the specifi cristal).

Stoichiometry in Chemistry learn about chemicals mainly emphasizes quantitative, such as the calculation of volume, mass, number, which is related to numbers, molecules, elements, etc.

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

In the reaction there are also manifestations of reagent substances namely gas (g), liquid (liquid / l), solid (solid / s) and solution (aqueous / aq).

The concentration of a substance can be expressed in several quantities such as moles, percent (%) weight/volume,), molarity, molality, parts per million (ppm) or mole fraction. The concentration shows the amount of solute in a unit of the amount of solvent.
