Na₂S₂O₃

(+1 × 2) + (2 × x) + (-2 × 3) = 0

2+2x-6 = 0

2x-4 = 0

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = +2....

why do you think you can find silver and gold on their own in rocks but calcium and magnesium are combined with other elements t
katrin [286]

Explanation:

Silver and Gold belong to a special group of metals known as the native metals. They are found naturally on their own and not in combined form in rocks.

  • These metals are found uncombined because they are unreactive.
  • They prefer to alloy with themselves.
  • Calcium and magnesium on the other hand are reactive metals.
  • The unreactivity of these metals makes them uncombined in nature.

Sodium thiosulfate, Na 2S 2O 3, is used as a "fixer" in black and white photography. Identify the reducing agent in the reaction
Tatiana [17]

Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

Explanation:

A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.

In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in S_{2}O^{2-}_{3} is +2 and I_{2}(aq) has 0 oxidation state.

In S_{4}O^{2-}_{6}(aq) oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in 2I^{-}(aq) oxidation state of I is -1.

Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.

Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

Based on the balanced chemical equation for the preparation of malachite, what is the composition of the bubbles formed when sod
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Carbon Dioxide = CO2

Explanation:

The synthesis of Malachite is seen in the chemical formula:

CuSO 4 . 5H2O(aq) + 2NaCO3(aq) --> CuCO 3 Cu(OH) 2 (s) + 2Na 2 SO 4 (aq) + CO 2 (g) + 9H 2 O(l)

The bubbles mentioned in the question hints that our interest is the compounds in their gseous phase  (g).

Upon examining the chemical equation, only CO2 is in the gaseous state and hence the only one that can be formed as bubbles,
