D. Forming or breaking bonds

Hi there!

The answer would be D. Forming or breaking bonds.

When forming or breaking bonds, a new substance is created and it’s no longer just a physical change. Sometimes when bonds are breaking and new ones are forming there can be a change in composition.

Hope this helps !

What are the resulting coefficients when you balance the chemical equation for the combustion of ethane, c2h6? in this reaction,
Vitek1552 [10]

Balance equation for combustion of ethane will be:

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g)--------> 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

To balance the equation:

1. Balance the number of carbon atom on both side:

C₂H₆(g) + O₂(g)--------> CO₂(g) + H₂O(g)

1. balance the number of carbon on both side, as in reactant there are 2 but in product one,

so , multiply the CO₂, by 2 in the product.

2. Balance the number of hydrogen on both side as in reactant the number of hydrogen is 3 but in product it is 6 so, multiplythe number of  H₂O by 3,

so multiply the number of  H₂O by 3 in product.

3. Balance the number of oxygen on both side , as 1 and 2 step increases the number of oxygen and it becomes 7 , so to balance the number of oxygen on both side by mutiplying the  number of  O₂ by 7/2 in reactant .

4. Now, doubling the equation will give balance equation that is:

2C₂H₆(g) + 7O₂(g)--------> 4CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(g)

The discovery of the atomic nucleus, or perhaps better stated the development of theory of the nucleus, is credited to Ernest Ru
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Both of the studies said that the mass of the atom is centered in the nucleus, which is positive, and there are electrons (negative particles) orbiting it. So, Rutheford and Nagaoka discovered that the atom can be divisible and it has an empty space.

But, in the model of Nagaoka, the nucleus was huge, and for Rutherford, the nucleus was really small, and the mass was concentrated. By his experiment with the gold sheets, the theory was appropriated. That's why Rutherford is credited with the discovery of the nucleus. Nagaoka was incorrect in his suppositions.

How many electrons will each element gain or lose in forming an ion?
Amanda [17]
It depends on the number of valence electrons required to make octet or duplet( in case of H). For example, Nitrogen(atomic number = 7) has electronic configuration(2,5) which means nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and requires 3 more electrons to complete its octet. After gaining 3 electrons from atoms of an element with less electronegativity than N, it forms nitride ion (N ^{-3}). Hope this helps.

n acid with a pKa of 8.0 is present in a solution with a pH of 6.0. What is the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form
Nady [450]

Answer : The ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid is, 100

Explanation : Given,

pK_a=8.0

pH = 6.0

To calculate the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid we are using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Deprotonated]}{[Protonated]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

6.0=8.0+\log \frac{[Deprotonated]}{[Protonated]}

\frac{[Deprotonated]}{[Protonated]}=0.01  

As per question, the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid will be:

\frac{[Protonated]}{[Deprotonated]}=100  

Therefore, the ratio of the protonated to the deprotonated form of the acid is, 100
