How did the development of the earliest idea about atoms differ from the later work of scientists?
goblinko [34]
At first, atoms were considered to be very simple and indivisible. People form ancient times knew only of water, earth, fire, and air, not what constitutes them or how they work specifically. Now, there are 118 elements and all atoms are proven to consist of neutrons, protons, and electrons, and that's just the beginning of it.

Determine each type of reaction. 2 C 2 H 2 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 4 C O 2 ( g ) + 2 H 2 O ( l ) 2CX2HX2(g)+5OX2(g)⟶4COX2(g)+2HX2O
Valentin [98]

Answer:

2 C 2 H 2 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 4 C O 2 ( g ) + 2 H 2 O ( l )- combustion reaction

N H 4 N O 3 ( s ) ⟶ N 2 O ( g ) + 2 H 2 O ( l )- decomposition reaction

C O ( g ) + 2 H 2 ( g ) ⟶ C H 3 O H ( l ) - combination reaction

2 F e ( s ) + 6 H C l ( a q ) ⟶ 2 F e C l 3 ( a q ) + 3 H 2 ( g )- Redox reaction

C a C l 2 ( a q ) + N a 2 C O 3 ( a q ) ⟶ 2 N a C l ( a q ) + C a C O 3 ( s )- double displacement reaction

Explanation:

We can determine the type of reaction by considering the reactants and products.

Combustion is a reaction between a substance and oxygen which produces heat and light. The first reaction is the equation for the combustion of ethyne.

A decomposition reaction is one in which a single reactant breaks down to form products. The second reaction is the decomposition of ammonium nitrate.

A  combination reaction is said to occur when two elements or compounds react to form a single product. The third reaction is the combination of carbon dioxide and methane to form  methanol.

An oxidation-reduction reaction is a reaction in which there is a change in oxidation number of species from left to right of the chemical reaction equation. The fourth reaction is the oxidation of iron (0 to +3 state) and reduction of hydrogen (+1 to 0 state).

A double displacement reaction is a reaction in which ions exchange partners from left to right in the reaction equation. The fifth reaction is a double displacement reaction. Both Na^+ and Ca^2+ exchanged partners from left to right of the reaction equation.

What is the purpose of the uninoculated control tubes used in the oxidation fermentation test?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The purpose of the uninoculated control tubes used in this test is that two uninoculated control tubes are needed to show the results of the medium in both aerobic and anaerobic environments. It is used to show it is sterile and also as a color comparison, used also to show that the medium remains green under both conditions.
