If every oxygen ion (combined with an aluminum ion) has a charge of –2, what must the charge of each aluminum ion be? How can yo

u tell this? Also, what has to happen to an uncharged aluminum atom so that it will bond with oxygen?

Each aluminium ion should have a charge of +2, because the sum of oxidation numbers must be zero.

The uncharged aluminium atom must lose two electrons to become an ion with +2 charge.

Fill in the coefficients that will balance the following reaction: a0Ca + a1CO2 + a2O2 → a3CaCO3
VashaNatasha [74]
The chemical equation without coefficients is:


Ca + CO2 + O2 --------> Ca CO3


You can balance that equation by trial an error.


This is the chemical equation balanced:


2Ca + 2CO2 + O2 --------> 2Ca CO3


Count the atoms on each side to check the balance


Atom    Left side         right side

Ca         2                     2 

C           2                     2

O          2*2 + 2 = 6       2*3 = 6


Then those are the coefficients:

a0 = 2

a1 = 2

a2 = 1

a3 = 2

An experiment to measure the enthalpy change for the reaction of aqueous
Komok [63]

Given that, an experiment to measure the enthalpy change for the reaction of aqueous copper(II) sulfate, CuSO4(aq) and zinc, Zn(s) was carried out in a coffee cup calorimeter; the heat of the reaction in the whole system is calculated to be 2218.34 kJ

Heat of reaction (i.e enthalpy of reaction) is the quantity of heat that is required to be added or removed when a chemical reaction is taken place in order to maintain all of the compounds present at the same temperature.

The formula used to calculate the heat of the reaction can be expressed as follows:

Q = mcΔT

where:

  • Q = quantity of heat transfer
  • m = mass
  • c = specific heat of water = 4.18 kJ/g °C (constant)
  • ΔT = change in temparature

From the information given:

  • The initial temperature (T₁) = 25° C
  • The final temperature (T₂) = 91.5° C

∴

The change in temperature i.e. ΔT = T₂ - T₁

ΔT = 91.5° C - 25° C

ΔT = 66.5° C

The number of moles of CuSO₄ = 1.00 mol/dm³ × 50.0 cm³

\mathbf{= (1 \times \dfrac{50}{1000})\ moles}

= 0.05 moles

  • Since the molar mass of CuSO₄ = 159.609 g/mol

Then;

Using the relation:

\mathbf{number \ of \ moles = \dfrac{mass}{molar \ mass}}}

By crossing multiplying;

mass of CuSO₄ = number of moles of CuSO₄ ×  molar mass of CuSO₄

mass of CuSO₄ = 0.05 moles  × 159.609 g/moles

mass of CuSO₄ = 7.9805 grams

∴

Using the formula from above:

Q = mcΔT

Q = 7.9805 g × 4.18 kJ/g °C × 66.5° C

Q = 2218.34 kJ

Therefore, we can conclude that the heat of the reaction is 2218.34 kJ

Question 3 of 5
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

A. More mass

C. Shorter distance between them

Explanation:

The two characteristics of a body experiencing greater gravitational force are that they have mass and a shorter distance between them.

This is conformity with Newton's law of universal gravitation.

The law states that "every object attracts one another with a force that is directly proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them".

This law implies that the more the mass of two bodies, the more the gravitational force of attraction. And that the shorter the square of the distance between them, the more the attraction.

Is graph paper a homogeneous or heterogeneous mixture
labwork [276]

Answer:

There is no chemical symbol for paper since it is not an element but rather a mixture of several different compounds. Mixtures in two or more phases are heterogeneous mixtures.

Which properties doom metalloids share with metals

Metalloids are all solid at room temperature<span>. Some metalloids, such as silicon and germanium, can act as </span>electrical<span> conductors under the right conditions, thus they are called semiconductors. Silicon, for example, appears lustrous but is not malleable or </span>ductile<span> (it is brittle - a characteristic of some nonmetals).
