Answer:

3 will be the correct coefficient of CaBr2

Explanation:

In balancing a chemical equation, numbers should be assigned to both reactants and products as a numerical coefficients until all atoms of elements in both sides of the equation count equal.

The balanced equation of the reaction will be:

3CaSO4 + 2AlBr3 ==> 3CaBr2 + Al2(SO4)3

Looking at the unbalanced equation in the question, in the product Al2(SO4)3 there are 3 SO4 group. This will warrant putting 3 behind CaSO4 in order to balance the atoms of SO4 group. That operation will automatically put the number of Ca atoms in CaSO4 to be 3 therefore making CaBr2 to have 3 coefficient as in the balanced equation. This is to balance the number of Ca atoms in both sides to be 3.

Answer:

The coefficient of CaBr2 is 3

Explanation:

Step 1: The unbalanced equation

CaSO4 + AlBr3 → CaBr2 +Al2(SO4)3

Step 2: Balancing the equation

CaSO4 + AlBr3 → CaBr2 +Al2(SO4)3

On the left side we 1x SO4 (in CaSO4), on the right side we have 3x SO4 (in Al2(SO4)3. To balance the amount of SO4 on both sides, wehave to multiply CaSO4 by 3.

3 CaSO4 + AlBr3 → CaBr2 +Al2(SO4)3

On the left side we have 1x Al (AlBr3) and on the right side we have 2x Al (in Al2(SO4)3. To balance the amount of Al on both sides,we have to multiply AlBr3 on the left side, by 2.

3 CaSO4 + 2AlBr3 → CaBr2 +Al2(SO4)3

On the left side we have 3x Ca (in CaSO4), on the right side we have 1x Ca (in CaBr2). To balance the amount of Ca on both sides, we have to multiply CaBr2 on the right side, by 3. Now the equation is balanced.

3 CaSO4 + 2AlBr3 → 3CaBr2 +Al2(SO4)3

The coefficient of CaBr2 is 3

A car is traveling 83.3 kilometers per hour. What is its speed in miles per minute? One kilometer = 0.62 miles.
Leya [2.2K]
Hi. 2fouls! :)

First convert the number from kilometer to miles:
83.3*0.62
=51.646 miles

Now to find the miles per minutes,divide the miles per hours by 60 (the amount of minutes in an hour.)

51.646/60
=0.860766667

The car is travelling at a speed of 0.860766667 miles/minute.

Hope this helps.

A 0. 1220 g vitamin c tablet was dissolved in acid. This required 11. 50 ml of 0. 01740 m kio3 to reach the endpoint. Calculate
kodGreya [7K]

86.66 %  by weight of ascorbic acid in the tablet, when 0. 1220 g vitamin c tablet was dissolved in acid. This required 11. 50 ml of 0. 01740 m KIO_3 to reach the endpoint.

<h3>What is a balanced chemical equation?</h3>

A balanced chemical reaction is an equation that has equal numbers of each type of atom on both sides of the arrow.

3C_6H_80_6 +3I_2 +KIO_3 +5KI +6H^+ → 3C_6H_60_6 +6I^- +3I_2+6K^+ +3H_2O

So, the balanced chemical equation for the reaction will be:

3C_6H_8O_6 +KIO_3 → 3C_6H_6O_6 +KI + 3H_2O

That means, 3 mol of of ascorbic acid reacts with 1 mol of KIO_3

Moles of KIO_3 available is 0.0174 X 0.0115 =0.0002001 mol

Moles of ascorbic acid to be yielded should be 3 X 0.0002001 =0.0006003

So, percent mass of ascorbic acid in the tablet will be:

(0.1057 / 0.1220) X 100 %

=86.66 %

Hence, the third option is the correct answer.

Hydrogen fuel cells are a promising alternative to gasoline engines in part because they release water instead of carbon dioxide
enot [183]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (B) Two molecules of H2 and a molecule of O2 must collide at one time

Explanation:

2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2 H2O(g)

   2             1            2

Considering the given reaction, for water molecule to be form, two molecules of hydrogen and one molecule of oxygen must collide at the same time. The product obtained from the collision is two molecules of water as steam. 2 H2O(g)
