Answer:

Yes, the reaction is supported by spectrochemical series.

Explanation:

When copper oxidizes with concentrated nitric acid, it produces copper ions; and the nitric acid is then reduced to nitrogen dioxide, a very poisonous gas which is brown in color and with an irritating odor.

$ Cu + 4HNO_{3} \rightarrow Cu(NO_{3})_{2} + 2NO_2+2H_2O$

The copper ions ($Cu^{2+} $) product which is initially coordinated to form nitrate ions from nitric acid and thus first gives the solution a green color.

Now when the solution is further diluted with water, the water molecules then displaces the nitrate ions  around the copper ions and causes the solution to change its color to blue. The reaction is -

$ 3Cu + 8HNO_3 \rightarrow 3Cu(NO_3)_2+ 2NO + 4H_2O $

Yes, the results are supported by spectrochemical series.

Which is a balanced chemical equation?
Degger [83]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

B. C7H16 + 11O2 → 7CO2 + 8H2O

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • In a balanced chemical equation, the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the equation.
  • In this case, the balanced chemical equation is;

   C7H16 + 11O2 → 7CO2 + 8H2O

Because, it has 7 carbon atoms, 16 hydrogen atoms and 22 oxygen atoms on each side of the equation.

  • When an equation is balanced it obeys the law of conservation of mass such that the mass of reactants will be equal to the mass of products.

a magnet has a north and south pole labeled in the drawing student A thinks that if you cut a magnet in half each ew parts will
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The student is Incorrect

Explanation:

Even if you break a magnet the poles still remains same. There is no

difference in the magnet Both north  and south pole will be there even if you

cut it in to small pieces when you cut it into pieces, if suppose you  break 2

magnets and put north and north together it will repel whereas if there  are  

different  poles like north and south it will attract, so even if you break one

single magnet the different poles will attract, Hence the student is incorrect.

Please mark me as brainliest

<h3><u>Thank you </u>:)</h3>
