A compound is broken down into 34.5 g of element a, 18.2 g of element b, and 2.6 g of element

Katena32 [7]

First, find the total mass.

34.5 g + 18.2 g + 2.6 g = 55.3 g

Divide the mass of each element by total mass.

34.5 g / 55.3 g = .62 x 100 = 62% element a

18.2 g / 55.3 = .33 x 100 = 33% element b

2.6 g / 55.3 = .047 x 100 = 4.7% element c

Hope I helped!

Balance the following oxidation-reduction reactions, which take place in acidic solution, by using the "half-reaction" method.

LuckyWell [14K]

First identify which is being oxidized and reduced. In this case, the Mg is being oxidized and the Hg is being reduced.

Mg --> Mg+2

Hg+2 --> Hg+1

Then you have to balance each half reaction first with electrons before adding them together in one equation

$Mg$ ⇒ $Mg^{+2} + 2e^{-1}$

and

$2Hg^{+2} + 2e^{-1}$ ⇒ $Hg_{2} ^{+2}$

and then combine them together to form

$Mg + 2 Hg^{+2} + 2e$ ⇒ $Mg^{+2} + 2e ^{-} + 2 Hg^{+1} + 2 e^{-}$

It isn't necessary to keep the electrons but its essential to know how many there are in order to know how many are in the equation in order to calculate the reaction energy. Note: Add H+ and H2O to balance the H's and O's in acidic solution if needed.

Which of the following elements is the most reactive? A. At B.Cl C.I D.Br

adell [148]

Answer:

B. Cl.

Explanation:

These are Group 7 elements whose reactivity reduces as you go down the group. Chlorine has a smaller atoms than the rest and has a stronger tendency to grab an electron in its valency shell. This is because its nucleus is closer to the outer electrons than the other elements.
