Answer:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Explanation:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Magnesium is more electro positive than aluminum hence it functions as the anode. Six electrons are lost/gained in the redox process as shown in the oxidation and reduction half reaction equations above. Magnesium is oxidized to magnesium ion while aluminum is reduced to elemental aluminum.

Paul [167]

Answer:

Heterogeneous mixture solution

Explanation:

The reason this is Heterogeneous is that you cant see each individual compound in the solution. If this was sand or any compund that is not desolvable or not fully desolved in water would be Homogenous since you can see the individual compounds (water and sand)

Quinine is an important type of molecule that is involved in photosynthesis. The transport of electrons mediated by quinone in c
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

The heat of combustion is -25 kJ/g = -2700 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

According to the Law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the combustion reaction and the heat absorbed by the bomb calorimeter is equal to zero.

Qcomb + Qcal = 0

Qcomb = - Qcal

The heat absorbed by the calorimeter can be calculated with the following expression.

Qcal = C × ΔT

where,

C is the heat capacity of the calorimeter

ΔT is the change in temperature

Then,

Qcomb = - Qcal

Qcomb = - C × ΔT

Qcomb = - 1.56 kJ/°C × 3.2°C = -5.0 kJ

Since this is the heat released when 0.1964 g o quinone burns, the energy of combustion per gram is:

\frac{-5.0kJ}{0.1964g} =-25kJ/g

The molar mass of quinone (C₆H₄O₂) is 108 g/mol. Then, the energy of combustion per mole is:

\frac{-25kJ}{g} .\frac{108g}{1mol} =-2700kJ/mol

PLS ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS FOR 67 POINTS
Elena L [17]

Explanation:

1. subatomic particles. 

2.proton, electron and neutron

3.The atomic mass of an element is actually the sum of the MASSES of protons and neutrons in AN atom of that element

4.An element's atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nuclei of any of its atoms

5. Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number

For krypton:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36

Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 84 - 36 = 48

6. electron, lightest stable subatomic particle known. It carries a negative charge of 1.602176634 × 10−19 coulomb, which is considered the basic unit of electric charge. The rest mass of the electron is 9.1093837015 × 10−31 kg

7.The center of the atom is called a nucleus

8. Negatively charged particles are found in multiple layers outside the nucleus of the atom. These particles are called electrons, and they orbit in various energy levels around the atom's nucleus.

9. A charged particle is also called an ion
