The Difference Between an Alloy and an Amalgam

Chemistry
1 answer:
Delicious77 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Mixtures or combinations of various different metals or metallic substances form things called alloys. An alloy composed of mercury and other metal (or metals) forms "amalgam". When a true alloy is created, the component metals are combined together at a temperature which is greater than the melting point of all of them.

Also, it helps to remember the word "amalgamate", which means "to alloy (a metal) with mercury" according to Dictionary.com.


Hope this helped :)

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Reasonable Second step- N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)

Explanation:

The given single step chemical reaction is as follows.

2H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow 2H_{2}O(g)+N_{2}(g)

Suppose a two-step mechanism is proposed for this reaction,

The reaction occured in two steps they are as follows.

Step -1:H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}O(g)

Step-2:N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)

In the reaction of silver nitrate with copper metal, metallic silver comes out of solution, and the solution turns blue. This as a <u>single replacement</u> reaction.

<h3>What is single replacement reaction?</h3>

A single replacement reaction, also known as a single displacement reaction, occurs when one element in a molecule is swapped out for another. The starting materials are always pure elements, such as a pure zinc metal or hydrogen gas, plus an aqueous compound.

A + BC → B + AC

When A is more reactive than B or when the product AC is more stable than BC, single replacement reactions happen. A and B could either be two halogens or two metals (with hydrogen included) (C is a cation). C functions as a spectator ion when BC and AC are in aqueous solutions.

For example, 2HCl(aq)+Zn(s)→ZnCl₂(aq)+H₂(g)
