The equation below represents a double replacement/displacement reaction;

1 answer:

4 0

AB+XY->AY+XB
We know that the answer would be KCl because of the switching that takes place during a double displacement reaction. Just like Zn and MnO4 switched and combined, the remaining elements, K and Cl, will combine.
We know that the answer is simply KCl because both K and Cl have an ion of only +/-1, meaning when they cross, no suffixes are made, since their ions are only 1.
For example, if you combined Mg with Cl, you would get MgCl2, because Mg has an ion of +2.
I hope this helps!

Write the balanced chemical equation for the following reaction. Phases are optional. Solid calcium chlorate decomposes to form

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + 3O₂ (g)

Explanation:

1) Word equation (given)

calcium chlorate (solid) → solid calcium chloride (solid) + oxygen (gas)

2) Chemical formulae of the reactant and products:

Calcium chlorate:

The most common oxidation states of chlorine are -1, +1, +3, +5, +7.

The suffix ate in chlorate means that chlorine atom is with the third lowest oxidation state (counting only the positive states). So, this is +5.

The oxidation state of calcium is +2.

Hence, the chemical formula of calcium chlorate is Ca(ClO₃)₂

Calcium chloride

The suffix ide in chloride means that chlorine is with oxidation state -1. Again the oxidation state of calcium is +2.

Hence, the chemical formula of calcium chloride is CaCl₂

Oxygen

Oxygen gas is a diatomic molecule, so its chemical formula is O₂.

Phases

The symbols s and g (in parenthesis) indicate the solid and gas phases respectively.

3) Chemical equation:

Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + O₂ (g)

That equation is not balanced becasue the number of O atoms in the reactant side and in the product side are different.

4) Balanced chemical equation:

Add a 3 as coefficient in front of O₂(g), in the product side to balance:

Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + 3O₂ (g)

Verify that all the atoms are balanced:

Atom Reactant side Product side

Ca 1 1

Cl 2 2

O 3×2 = 6 2×3 = 6

Conclusion: the equation is balanced and the final answer is:

Ca(ClO₃)₂ (s) → CaCl₂ (s) + 3O₂ (g)

12. What is the frequency of a photon with an energy of 3.03 x 10-19 J?

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

$u=4.57x10^5GHz$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, given the formula:

$E=h*u$

Whereas E is the energy, h the Planck's constant and u the frequency of the photon. Thus, solving for it, we obtain:

$u=\frac{E}{h}=\frac{3.03x10^{-19}J}{6.63x10^{-34}J*s}\\ \\u=4.57x10^{14}s^{-1}$

Or also:

$u=4.57x10^{14}Hz*\frac{1GHz}{1x10^9Hz}\\ \\u=4.57x10^5GHz$

Best regards.
