I think the correct answer would be because copper has a lower activity than hydrogen and cannot replace the bonds in it. Substances that are not oxidizing do not react with copper since the redox potentials are very low. Hope this answers the question.

   The  reason why  H₂O +Cu  does   not  proceed to  a  product  is that  

copper  has  a   lower   activity  than  hydrogen  and  cannot  replace  it (answer  A)


<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Replacement reaction is type  of  a reaction in which  element react with compound  and take place of  another element  in that compound.

That  is the   more  reactive  element replaces  the less  reactive  element from it's compound.

<em>Since  H₂  is  more  reactive  than Cu  in  reactivity  series therefore   no reaction  occur  between  H₂O  +Cu  since   Cu cannot  replace H₂  from its  compound.</em>

The answer is C, because wind turbines are used to produce electricity, and it's also the most safest way--but they are  expensive.

According to the following reaction, what volume in milliliters of 0.244M KCl(aq) solution is required to react exactly with 50.
Elodia [21]

Answer:

There is 86.1 mL of KCl needed

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Molarity of KCl = 0.244 M

Volume of a 0.210 M Pb(NO3)2 = 50.0 mL = 0.05 L

<u>Step 2:</u> The balanced equation

2KCl(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) -> PbCl2(s) + 2KNO3(aq)

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate moles Pb(NO3)2

moles Pb(NO3)2 =molarity * volume

moles Pb(NO3)2 = 0.210 M * 0.05 L

moles Pb(NO3)2 = 0.0105 moles

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate moles of KCl

For 1 mole of Pb(NO3)2 we need 2 moles of KCl

moles KCl required = 0.0105 * 2 =0.0210  moles

<u>Step 5:</u> Calculate volume of KCl

Volume = moles KCl / molarity KCl

V = 0.0210 moles / 0.244 M=0.0861 L = 86.1 mL

There is 86.1 mL of KCl needed

Class material don't interact please

A 0.00143 M  concentration of MnO4^- is not a reasonable solution .

<h3>Number of moles of carbonate</h3>

The ions left in solution are Na^+ and NO3^-

Number of moles of calcium nitrate  = 100/1000 L × 1 = 0.1 moles

Since;

1 mole of sodium carbonate reacts with 1 mole of calcium nitrate  then 0.1 moles of sodium carbonate were used.

<h3>Conductivity of filtrate</h3>

The claim of the student that the concentration of sodium carbonate is too low is wrong because the value was calculated from concentration  and volume of calcium nitrate  and not using the precipitate. If the filtrate is tested for conductivity, it will be found to conduct electricity because it contains sodium and NO3 ions.

2) In the reaction as shown, the MnO4^- ion was reduced.

The initial volume is 3.4 mL while the final volume is 29.6 mL.

Number of moles of MnO4^- ion = (29.6 mL - 3.4 mL)/1000 × 0.0235 M = 0.0006157 moles

<h3>The calculations are performed as follows</h3>

  • If 2 moles of MnO4^- reacted with 5 moles of acid

0.0006157 moles of MnO4^- reacted with  0.0006157 moles ×  5 moles/ 2 moles

= 0.0015 moles

  • In this case, number of moles of acid = 0.139 g/90 g/mol = 0.0015 moles

Number of moles of MnO4^-  = 0.00143 M × (29.6 mL - 3.4 mL)/1000

= 0.000037 moles

  • If 2 moles of MnO4^- reacts with 5 moles of acid

0.000037 moles of MnO4^- reacts with 0.000037 moles × 5 moles/ 2 moles

= 0.000093 moles

  • Hence, this is not a reasonable amount of solution.

You have a glass of liquid and combine it with a mysterious solid and notice that over time the color changes. this questions ha
Juliette [100K]

1. This can be due to the dissolving of the solid in liquid and form a solution.

Dissolving is a physical property because dissolving doesn't form new substances and the chemical composition of the solid is not changed.

The color building up over the time can be due to the rate of dissolving of the solid and amount of particles have been dissolved.

Example:

  • Dissolving of CuSO₄ solid in water.
  • This develops a blue color.

2. This can be due to the chemical reaction between the solid and liquid.

Chemical reaction is a chemical property because from reacting substances new substances can be formed which the chemical formula is different from initial substances.

The color building up over the time can be due to the rate of the reaction and the amount of reactants.

Example:

  • The reaction between calcium metal with water.
  • The color of Ca(OH)₂ is white color.
  • Reaction is

       Ca(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + H₂(g)
