ANSWERS:
Group 2 metal carbonates, nitrates and hydroxides decompose to heat to give the corresponding metal oxide and release CO2, NO2 and O2, and H2O respectively. The thermal stability increases down the group as theionic character of the compounds increases down the group.
A) Cu
Cu + 2HCl --> CuCl2 + H2(g)
Products predicted: Copper(II) choloride and hydrogen gas
B) Mg
Mg + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + H2
Products predicted: magnesium chloride + hygrogen gas
C) Fe
Fe +2 HCl -> FeCl2 + H2, or
2Fe +6 HCl -> 2FeCl3 + 3H2
Products predicted: Iron(II) chloride, iron (III) chloride and hydrogen gas.
Answer:
soluble starch, maltose and various dextrins.
Explanation:
This statement is false due to the fact that the ammonia gas has the lower molar mass.
