Why can't elements be separated into smaller parts using chemical means? Too much energy is required, since you'd have to break them down into protons, neutrons, and electrons. You can get this much energy together with nuclear reactions, but not by chemical means.
Answer:
Most acid precipitation results from the combination of <u>Sulfur Oxides and Nitrogen Oxides</u> with water in the atmosphere, forming strong acids that fall with rain or snow.
Explanation:
Acid rain is said to be that rain which contains high concentration of H⁺ ions. The main source of acid rain is the elimination of NOₓ (Nitrogen Oxides) and SOₓ (Sulfur Oxides) from different means in industries and other combustion processes on earth.
Examples:
SO₂ + H₂O → H₂SO₄
NO₂ + OH° → HNO₃
From above examples it can be seen that the sulfur and nitrogen oxides when reacted with water forms strong acids. These acids come along with rain water and causes different problems to living organisms and non living objects like buildings.
There are two kinds of mixtures
a) homogeneous : the boundary of the two components is not physically distinct
b) heterogeneous:the boundary of the two components is physically distinct
the following separation techniques are common for mixtures
1) filtration: if the two components are forming heterogeneous mixture we can separate them by filtration.
2) boiling: if boiling point of one of the components is less than other
3) magnetic separation: if one of the component is magnetic
4)sieve method: for solid components with difference in size of particles
5) hand picking
Thus the correct match will be as shown in the figure
Answer:
Chemical equations need to be balanced so that they follow the law of conservation of mass.
You will need a periodic table to help you answer this problem. The atomic numbers are arrange from lowest to highest in the periodic table. You can locate element number 55 to be Cesium with an atomic weight of 132.905 amu. So, you start from element 56. The following elements are:
56 Barium 137.328 amu
57 Lanthanium 138.905 amu
58 Cerium 140.116 amu
59 <span>Praseodymium 140.908 amu
60 Neodymium 144.243 amu
Neodymium is already greater than 144 amu. Therefore, these elements only include Barium, Lanthanium, Cerium and Praseodymium.</span>
