Consider the following balanced equation:

1 answer:

4 0

Zn⁰ + 2H⁺ ------> Zn²⁺ + H2⁰

H⁺ ion has oxidation number +1.
Zn²⁺ ion has oxidation number +2.
Atom of Zn has electric charge 0, and each hydrogen atom in the molecule H2 have oxidation number 0. So, Zn and each hydrogen atom in H2 have oxidation numbers equals "0".

Answer is
D. Zn and each hydrogen atom in H2

Help! I don't have the things to do this and its due TODAY! Could someone help me?

vodomira [7]

Answer:

--- The hot air inside the bottle creates an expansion and when the hot water is applied a contraction occurs, thus causing the balloon to be sucked.

--- An internal pressure is produced, joining the heat begins to decrease. As a consequence, the air molecule causes the balloon to enter the bottle thanks to the effect of the external pressure.

Explanation:

I hope I have helped with something.

What is the formula for CO3 2- and Al3+ ?

Goryan [66]

Answer is: formula is Al₂(CO₃)₃.

Aluminium carbonate (Al₂(CO₃)₃) has neutral charge. Because aluminium cation has positive charge 3+ and carbonate anion has negative charge 2-, for right chemical formula, we need two aluminium cations and three carbonate anion:

charge of the molecule = 2 · (3+) + 3 · (-2).

charge of the molecule = 0.

The central Xe atom in the XeF4 molecule has ________ unbonded electron pair(s) and ________ bonded electron pair(s) in its vale

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Lewis structure in attachment.

Explanation:

Atoms of elements in and beyond the third period of the periodic table form some compounds in which more than eight electrons surround the central atom. In addition to the 3s and 3p orbitals, elements in the third period also have 3d orbitals that can be used in bonding. These orbitals enable an atom to form an expanded octet.

The central Xe atom in the XeF₄ molecule has two unbonded electron pairs and four bonded electron pairs in its valence shell.
