The following Balanced Reaction will take place:
Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂
In the question, we have 2 moles of Zinc and 3 moles of HCl for this reaction
<u>Amount of HCl required to completely react with 2 moles of Zn:</u>
Since we need 2 moles of HCl for every mole of Zn, we will need 2(2) = 4 moles of HCl for every 2 moles of Zn
<u>Identifying the Limiting Reagent:</u>
But we are only given 3 moles of HCl where we need 4 moles to completely react.
So, since HCl is in less amount, it is the Limiting Reagent
5.75 Grams per cm^3
You do mass divided by volume
Answer:
I will say D. The molecules become arranged into regular cubic arrangement. but i'm not 100% sure
Explanation:
<h3>1. <u>Answer;</u></h3>
a. the strong nuclear force is much greater than the electric force.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- <em><u>For an atom to be stable it means it has enough amount of binding energy to hold its nucleus together permanently. </u></em>
- Therefore, <em><u>an unstable atom lacks enough amount of binding energy to hold its nucleus permanently and thus undergoes decay to achieve stability. Unstable atoms are therefore referred to being radioactive.</u></em>
-
Small atoms are stable; <u>this is because they have equal number of protons and neutrons and thus the protons and neutrons fill up energy levels while maximizing the strong force binding the nucleus together. </u>
<h3>9.<u> Answer;</u></h3>
b. change into a different element altogether.
Uranium-238 undergoes alpha decay. Therefore, uranium-238 will <em><u>change into a different element altogether</u></em>.
<h3><u>
Explanation;</u></h3>
- Unstable atoms undergo radioactive decay in order to achieve stability of their nucleus.
- <em><u>Uranium-238 is an example of such atom, which may undergo decay to achieve stability.</u></em>
- <em><u>Alpha decay is one of the types of decays,</u></em> others being beta decay and gamma decay. <em><u>In alpha decay the radioactive isotope undergoes decay such that its mass number is decreased by four and its atomic number is decreased by two.</u></em>
-
Therefore, <em><u>Uranium-238 undergoes alpha decay to form a different element whose mass number is 234 and atomic number is 90, known as thorium-234. </u></em>
