When electricity flows through water, the water molecules split into molecules of hydrogen and oxygen gas. How many oxygen (O2)

molecules are produced from the splitting of two molecules of water (H2O) if the balanced equation for the reaction is as follows?
2H2O → 2H2 + O2

That would be one oxygen molecule.

Answer: The number of oxygen molecules produced are 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Water is formed by the combination of hydrogen and oxygen atoms.

Water splits into 2 types of molecules when electricity is applied.

The balanced chemical equation for the splitting of water into its molecules follows:

2H_2O\rightarrow 2H_2+O_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of water splits to form 2 moles of hydrogen molecule and 1 mole of oxygen molecule.

Or,

2 molecules of water splits to form 2 molecules of hydrogen and 1 molecule of oxygen.

Hence, the number of oxygen molecules produced are 1.

What does lead ii acetate and hydrogen sulfide produce? and what type of reaction is it?
kati45 [8]
When Lead (II) acetate and Hydrogen sulfide react, they form Lead sulfide and Acetic acid. The reaction is a reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction.
The balanced chemical reaction is this:
Pb(C2H3O2)2 + H2S --> PbS + 2C2H4O2
And the net ionic reaction is this:
Pb2+ + S2- --> PbS

Which definitions of acids can apply to substances?
koban [17]
<span>*Acids taste sour. The lemon, vinegar, tamarind contain acids; that's why they are sour.

*The acids change the color of certain substances called indicators. The indicators have the property of changing color as the character acid or basic solutions. The litmus and phenolphthalein are indicators of acids and bases. The solution of phenolphthalein is colorless red in the presence of an acid. Already the blue litmus paper turns red.

*The acids react with bases to form salts and water. This reaction is called neutralization reaction.</span>

Without doing any calculations, determine which sample contains the most atoms.
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

1g of Boron has the most number of atoms. This is simply because it has the highest number of moles.

Since 1 mole contain 6.22 × 10^23 atoms, the atom that has most moles closer to 1 will contain most atoms.

This in fact can be calculated from the fact that the number of moles equal mass divided by the atomic mass.

The mass here is equal I.e 1g and thus the dividing factor will be the atomic mass. The atom with the highest atomic mass here us thorium and thus will give the lowest number of moles. Zinc follows suit in that order with Boron at the top of the other and thus will contain the highest number of atoms.
