Answer:
In the total entropy of an isolated system, the thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work can never decrease.
Oxidation is when a substance gains oxygen molecules. For example when hydrogen reacts with oxygen it forms H₂O. The H₂ has been oxidised.
The percent composition of each element can be calculated as follows:
% composition = (mass of element / total mass) * 100
The total mass of the quarter is given to be 5.670 grams
Mass of Cu = 5.198 grams
Mass of Ni = 0.472 grams
Substitute in the above equation to get the mass percentage of each element as follows:
% of Cu = (5.198/5.670) * 100 = 91.675%
% of Ni = (0.472/5.670) * 100 = 8.325%
Döbereiner grouped the known elements into <em>triads</em> (sets of three) so that
• The <em>atomic mass of the middle element</em> was approximately the average of the other two
• The <em>chemical properties of the middle element</em> were between those of the other two
• The <em>physical properties of the middle element</em> were between those of the other two
One example of a triad is Li – Na – K.
(a) Atomic mass of Na = 23.0 u
Average atomic mass of Li and K = (6.9 u + 39.1 u)/2 = 46.0 u/2 = 23.0 u
(b) Li reacts slowly with water. Na reacts rapidly. Potassium reacts violently.
(c) Melting point of Na = 371 °C.
Average melting point of Li and K = (454 °C + 330 °C)/2 = 784 °C/2
= 392 °C
Answer:Balance. Acid+metal->salt+hydrogen.1 molecule od zinc contains 1 zinc atom.2 molecule of HCl contains 2 atoms hydrogen and 2 chlorine.1 molecule of Zncl2 contain one atom of zinc and two atom of chlorine.And two 2 atoms of hydrogen.
