Hello!


The coefficient for Lithium Acetate in the balanced chemical equation is 6


Why?


This is the reaction:


(CH₃COO)₂Ca(aq) + Li₃PO₄(aq) → Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + CH₃COOLi(aq)


For balancing the equation, we're going to apply the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that matter is not created nor destroyed, and the number of atoms of each element should be the same on both sides of the equation, from that, the balanced equation is:


3(CH₃COO)₂Ca(aq) + 2Li₃PO₄(aq) → Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s) + 6CH₃COOLi(aq)


Have a nice day!

Why is it not possible to just consume only pure ATP and thus eliminate some steps in
xeze [42]

Our digestive has the steps of digestion and absorption associated with it. So all the compounds taken in as food are first broken down into simpler components before absorption.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate is a compound containing a molecule of adenine as nitrogen base, a ribose sugar and three molecules of phosphate attached with the adenine in a chain. Its unable to get absorbed into the system as ATP itself. In intestine, it will be broken down into Adenine, ribose, and phosphates and then absorbed individually into blood.

Thus even if we consume raw ATP, we can't bypass the process of ATP formation. So, there's no significance. And secondly, ATP is very expensive and not suitable for consumption itself.

Write balanced ionic equations and net ionic equations for the following reactions.
Kipish [7]
The ionic equation will be: 
<span>Mg2+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) → Mg2+(aq) + 2NO3-(aq) + 2H2O(l) 
</span>And the net ionic: 
<span>2OH-(aq) + 2H+(aq) → 2H2O(l) 
</span>a Balanced equation would be:
<span>Mg(OH)2(aq) + 2HNO3(aq) → Mg(NO3)2 (aq) + 2H2O(l) 
</span>Now  thsi si so because of the standard equation which is base plus acid=Salt plus water. We need to have in mindo that Mg(OH)2 is sparingly soluble in water and is aqueous mos of the times

When electrolyzing copper (ll) chloride, what reaction takes place at the anode? What reaction takes place at the cathode?
klemol [59]

Answer:

Copper ions are reduced into copper atoms.

Cu²⁺₍aq₎ + 2e⁻ →  Cu₍s₎

Explanation:

During electrolysis,  the positive H⁺ and Cu⁺ ions move to the negative cathode and negative OH⁻ and Cl⁻ ions move to the positive anode.

At cathode, copper ions are preferentially discharged due to the low electromotive force required to discharge them compared to the hydrogen ion. The copper ions gain the two electrons lost by the chloride ions when the are discharged. (2 Cl⁻₍aq₎ → Cl₂₍g₎ + 2e⁻)

Thus the half equation is as follows:

Cu²⁺₍aq₎ + 2e⁻ →  Cu₍s₎
