Fireworks owe their colors to reactions of combustion of the metals present. When Mg and Al burn, they emit a white bright light, whereas iron emits a gold light. Besides metals, oxygen is necesary for the combustion. The decomposition reactions of barium nitrate and potassium chlorate provide this element. At the same time, barium can burn emitting a green light.
(a) Barium nitrate is a <em>salt</em> formed by the <em>cation</em> barium Ba²⁺ and the <em>anion</em> nitrate NO₃⁻. Its formula is Ba(NO₃)₂. Potassium chlorate is a <em>salt</em> formed by the <em>cation</em> potassium K⁺ and the <em>anion</em> chlorate ClO₃⁻. Its formula is KClO₃.
(b) The balanced equation for the decomposition of potassium chloride is:
2KClO₃(s) ⇄ 2KCl(s) + 3O₂(g)
(c) The balanced equation for the decomposition of barium nitrate is:
Ba(NO₃)₂(s) ⇄ BaO(s) + N₂(g) + 3O₂(g)
(d) The balanced equations of metals with oxygen to form metal oxides are:
- 2 Mg(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2 MgO(s)
- 4 Al(s) + 3 O₂(g) ⇄ 2 Al₂O₃(s)
- 4 Fe(s) + 3 O₂(g) ⇄ 2 Fe₂O₃(s)
Electrons fill the electron orbitals (s, p, d, or f) starting from the lowest energy level going to the highest energy level.

Answer:
Period
Explanation:
If we ubicate te period one on the alkaline metals, we can see the lithium, so we go to the borans on te group AIII an we see Boron, move to the rigth on the same sense tou the group AVI we see the Oxygen, we can know that also for the electronic configuration Li:1s²2s¹ B:1s²2s²3p
Answer:
0.3 mole
Explanation:
number of moles grams
one 14+(4×1)+14+(3×16)
1 80
? 24
Therefore, 24×1÷80 = 0.3 moles of ammonium nitrate
Answer:9.18 m/s
Explanation:
The average speed for the entire trip is found ......total distance/total time. Remember r*t=d, so divide both sides by t and get r = d/t.
So the cyclist went 800+500+1200 m = 2500 m for total distance.
10t =800 leads to t=80 sec
5t=500 leads to t=100 sec
13t = 1200 leads to t = 92.3 sec
total time is 272.3 sec
Average speed for the entire trip is 2500 / 272.3 = 9.18 m/s
