The reaction between boron sulfide and carbon is given as:
2B2S3 + 3C → 4B + 3CS2
As per the law of conservation of mass, for any chemical reaction the total mass of reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products.
Given data:
Mass of C = 2.1 * 10^ 4 g
Mass of B = 3.11*10^4 g
Mass of CS2 = 1.47*10^5
Mass of B2S3 = ?
Now based on the law of conservation of mass:
Mass of B2S3 + mass C = mass of B + mass of CS2
Mass of B2S3 + 2.1 * 10^ 4 = 3.11*10^4 + 1.47*10^5
Mass of B2S3 = 15.7 * 10^4 g
<u>Answer:</u> The atomic mass of these species is different and atomic number remains same.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Isotopes are the chemical species of the same element having different number of neutrons.
- Atomic number is equal to the number of protons or electrons present in that element.
Atomic Number = Number of electrons = Number of protons
- Atomic mass is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons contained in an atom.
Atomic Mass = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
For isotopes, as the number of neutrons differ, the atomic mass also differs.
For Example: Carbon has 3 naturally occurring isotopes: 
. The atomic number remains the same but atomic mass differs.
Hence, for isotopes, the atomic mass of these species is different and atomic number remains same.
Answer:
1. How do metals and non-metals react with acids?
Ans : Non metals does not react with acids while metals react with acids and produce hydrogen gas that burns with a 'pop'sound.
2. Write and explain the chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium with sulphuric acid and aluminium with hydrochloric acid.
Magnesium + sulphuric acid = Hydrogen + salt
Mg(s) + H2SO4 (aq) MgSO 4(aq) +H2 (g)
Aluminium + Hydrochloric acid = Hydrogen + Aluminium chloride
2Al(s)+6HCl(aq)→2AlCl3(aq)+3H2(g)
The charge of Br changed from –1 to 0, therefore it is the
element which is oxidized. Since it is oxidized then Br is also the reducing
agent.
The charge of Mn changed from +4 to +2 therefore it is the
element which is reduced. Since Mn is reduced, then MnO2 is the oxidizing
agent.
The half –reactions are:
Br: 2Br --> Br2 + 2e-
Mn: MnO2 --> Mn2+
First balance oxygen by adding H2O:
MnO2 --> Mn2+ + 2H2O
Then balance hydrogen by adding H+ ions:
4H+ + MnO2 --> Mn2 + 2H2O
Then the appropriate electrons:
4e- + 4H+ + MnO2 --> Mn2 + 2H2O
Multiply the half-reaction of Br by 2 because the half-reaction
of Mn has 4 electrons.
4Br --> 2Br2 + 4e-
Combine the two half reactions and cancel common factors:
4Br- + 4H+ + MnO2 --> 2Br2 + Mn2 + 2H2O
Answer:
Cl
Explanation:
Because the oxidation state reduces from+3 in ClO2- to +1 in ClO- and oxygen is being lost
