Q # 6 which of the following equations has correct formulas and also is a balanced equation?

Chemistry
1 answer:

Answer:- a)   2Be+O_2\rightarrow 2BeO

First equation is correct since Be is an alkaline earth metal and it has +2 charge. Oxygen also has -2 charge so the formula of beryllium oxide is BeO. Since, oxygen is diatomic, it is written as O_2 and then to balance the equation we need to multiply Be and BeO by 2 and the balanced equation is:  2Be+O_2\rightarrow 2BeO

Second equation is not balanced for hydrogen and potassium. There was actually no need to multiply KCl and HCl by 3. It could simply be written as:

KCl+HNO_3\rightarrow HCl+KNO_3

Third equation is not correct as the product formula is wrong. Mg has +2 charge and O has -2 charge, so the product will be MgO and the balanced equation must be written as:

2Mg+O_2\rightarrow 2MgO

Fourth equation is not correct since metal carbonates gives metal oxide and the carbon dioxide gas on decomposition. Calcium carbonate and calcium oxide formulas are written correctly but the carbon dioxide formula is not written correctly. It must should be [tex[CO_2[/tex] where they have written CO_3  and the correct equation is written as:

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

What is the energy change if 84.0 g of calcium oxide (CaO) reacts with excess water in the following reaction?
pochemuha
   The energy change  if 84.0 g   of CaO  react  with  excess  water is  98KJ of heat is released.

calculation
heat  =  number of moles  x  delta H

delta H = - 65.2  Kj/mol

first find the number of  moles  of  CaO reacted

moles = mass/molar mass
the molar mass  of CaO =  40 +  16=  56 g/mol
mass = 84 g
moles therefore = 84 g/56 g/mol =1.5 moles

Heat is therefore =  1.5 moles  x -65.2 = - 97.8 Kj = -98 Kj

  since  sign is  negative  the   energy  is released

erastova [34]

Answer:

Trail Mix

Explanation:

The best description for the snack that Ben is eating would be Trail Mix. This is a very common snack for hikers, hence the name, since it is very healthy and great for taking on hikes since it does not get affected by the sun. This snack was originally called GORP which stands for "good old raisins and peanuts" because the snack originally contained only raisins and peanuts. It has since changed to include various different ingredients such as a variety of nuts, chocolate pieces, dried fruit, cereal etc.
