The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

<span>Zn + 2AgNO3 = Zn(NO3)2 + 2Ag

To determine the grams of silver metal that is being produced, it is important to first determine which is the limiting reactant and the excess reactant from the given initial amounts. We do as follows:

4.35 g Zn ( 1 mol / 65.38 g ) ( 2 mol AgNO3 / 1 mol Zn ) = 0.1331 mol AgNO3 needed
35.8 g AgNO3 ( 1 mol / 169.87 g ) ( 1 mol Zn / 2 mol AgNO3 ) = 0.1054 mol Zn needed

Therefore, the limiting reactant would be the zinc metal since it would be consumed completely in the reaction. The excess amount of AgNO3 would be:

0.2107 mol AgNO3 - 0.1331 mol AgNO3 = 0.0776 mol AgNO3 left ( 169.87 g / 1 mol ) = 13.19 g AgNO3 left

0.0665 mol Zn ( 2 mol Ag / 1 mol Zn) ( 107.9 g / 1 mol) = 14.3581 g Ag produced</span>

Which of the following is a characteristic of mixtures? A. Mixtures can only be in solid and liquid form. B. Substances that are
Taya2010 [7]

The correct choice is B.  

Mixtures retain their properties because science has proven it. Take a bag of trail mix for example. Those raisins and marshmallows and m&m’s can each be separated. When you take them out, they keep their same texture.  

 

Is not correct because mixtures can be solids (Trail mix is one example)  

Correct  

Is not correct because sometimes it cannot be seen (Lemonade powder and water is one example)  

Is not correct because trail mix is an example.

Write a procedure that you would follow to demonstrate the effect of increasingly higher concentrations of hydrochloric acid on
Hitman42 [59]
The reaction would produce bubbles of gas.

We can prepare 3-5 test tubes of acid with increasing concentrations. Then, we add antacid tablets to each and note the time taken for the tablet to dissolve and stop producing bubbles. The lesser the time taken, the greater the rate of reaction.

Sodium thiosulfate, Na 2S 2O 3, is used as a "fixer" in black and white photography. Identify the reducing agent in the reaction
Tatiana [17]

Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

Explanation:

A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.

In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in S_{2}O^{2-}_{3} is +2 and I_{2}(aq) has 0 oxidation state.

In S_{4}O^{2-}_{6}(aq) oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in 2I^{-}(aq) oxidation state of I is -1.

Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.

Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Horticulture is the study of science related to the art of growing fruits, vegetables, or plants.

Therefore, when a person graduated from a college with a degree in horticulture then it means he has obtained enough knowledge about how to grow plants, fruits or vegetables in the best way possible.

Thus, Vincent who also graduated in horticulture cannot accurately tell about human psychology.

Hence, we can conclude that the statement this claim may not be accurate because the blog is produced by someone who is not an expert in the field of human psychology.
