soldi70 [24.7K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Balancing of chemical equations

  • A chemical equation is balanced by putting appropriate coefficients on the products and reactants of the equation.
  • Balancing chemical equations ensures that chemical equations obey law of conservation of mass.
  • In this case; to balance the above equation we put the coefficients, 1, 3, 2, and 3 on the reactants and products.
  • Therefore; the balanced chemical equation for the reaction is;

      Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g)

Cobalt-63 has a half-life of 5.3 years. If a pellet that has been in storage for 15.9 years contains 40.0g of Cobalt-63, how muc
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

320 g  

Step-by-step explanation:

The half-life of Co-63 (5.3 yr) is the time it takes for half of it to decay.  

After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.  

After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.  

We can construct a table as follows:  

  No. of               Fraction         Mass

half-lives   t/yr   Remaining   Remaining/g

      0        0              1

      1         5.3           ½

     2        10.6           ¼

     3        15.9           ⅛                 40.0

     4        21.2           ¹/₁₆

We see that 40.0 g remain after three half-lives.

This is one-eighth of the original mass.

The mass of the original sample was 8 × 40 g = 320 g

Which of the following is the correctly balanced chemical equation for the reaction of Ca(OH)2 and HNO3?
sattari [20]

Explanation:

The reaction between calcium hydroxide and nitric acid is as follows.

  Ca(OH)_{2} + HNO_{3} \rightarrow Ca(NO_{3})_{2} + H_{2}O

Number of reactant atoms are as follows.

  • Ca = 1
  • O = 4
  • H = 3
  • N = 1

Number of product atoms are as follows.

  • Ca = 1
  • O = 4
  • H = 2
  • N = 3

To balance the given chemical equation, multiply HNO_{3} by 2 on reactant side and multiply H_{2}O by 2 on the product side.

Therefore, the balanced chemical equation will be as follows.

    Ca(OH)_{2} + 2HNO_{3} \rightarrow Ca(NO_{3})_{2} + 2H_{2}O
