Answer:

6 Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)

Explanation:

Solid lithium metal and diatomic nitrogen gas react spontaneously to form a solid product (lithium nitride). The chemical equation is:

Li(s) + N₂(g) → Li₃N(s)

Since the atomicities in the product are odd, the easiest way to balance the equation is by first multiplying it by 2.

Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)

The final (balanced) equation is:

6 Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2 Li₃N(s)

Suppose you could watch radioactive atoms decay. It would probably get quite boring as time went by. Why?
kari74 [83]

Answer: the answer should and most definitely be D.

Explanation: I mean think about it after a while only a few radioactive nuclei are left which means it will dye down after a while which also makes it very boring hope this helps :)

The reaction, 2C4H10 (g) + 13O2 (g) à 8CO2 (g) + 5H2O (g), is the combustion of butane. What occurs as the reaction proceeds?
Solnce55 [7]
The reaction, 2 C4H10 (g) + 13 O2 (g) = 8 CO2 (g) + 5 H2O (g), is the combustion of butane.   A combustion reaction involves the reaction of a hydrocarbon with oxygen producing carbon dioxide and water. This reaction is exothermic which means it releases energy in the form of heat. Therefore, as the reaction proceeds,a heat energy is being given off by the reaction. This happens because the total kinetic energy of the reactants is greater than the total kinetic energy of the products. So, the excess energy should be given off somewhere which in this case is released as heat.

the elements iron and oxygen can react to form the compound iron oxide. what type of reaction is this? please explain.
rjkz [21]
Your reaction
.. Fe + O2 ---> FexOy
for this reaction..
.. the Fe on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the Fe on the right is in the +(2y/x) oxidation state
.. the O on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the O on the right is in the -2 oxidation state
meaning
.. the O is reduced... . . (it's reduced in oxidation state)
.. the Fe is oxidized.. . .(oxidation state increased)
this is a REDOX reaction

*********
AND.. it's also a synthesis reaction.. (aka combination reaction)

What is the empirical formula of a molecule containing 65.5% carbon, 5.5% hydrogen, and 29.0% oxygen
natta225 [31]
Carbon(C):
number of moles= mass/molar mass(Mr)
=65.5/12
=5.5 moles

Hydrogen(H):
number of moles=mass/molar mass (Mr)
=5.5/1
=5.5 moles

Oxygen (O):
number of moles = mass/molar mass (Mr)
=29.0/16
=1.8 moles

EF= lowest number of moles over each of the elements

So,
C= 5.5/1.8 = 3
H= 5.5/1.8 = 3
O= 1.8/1.8 = 1

Therefore Emperical formula= C3H3O
