Balancing the reaction is done to obey the law of nature, particularly, the Law of Definite Proportions. The concept is, the amount of the same element before and after the reaction must be the same. This is actually a redox reaction.

Oxidation half-reaction: Zn  + 4 OH⁻ → Zn(OH)₄²⁻ + 2 e-  

Reduction half-reaction: NO₃⁻ + 6 H₂O + 8 e-→ NH₃ + 9 OH⁻

Adding both reaction, we get the overall complete balanced equation:

<span>4Zn + NO</span>₃⁻ + 6 H₂O + 7 OH⁻  → 4 Zn(OH)₄²⁻ + NH₃

Thus, the charge in the product side is 4*-2 = <em>-8</em>.

The expected o-c-h angle in this molecule is degrees. the expected hybridization at the central carbon is
WINSTONCH [101]

Each neutral carbon atom contains four valence electrons and may form up to four electron domains. Possible hybridizations include

  • sp^{3}, four electron domains, as in ethane \text{C}_2\text{H}_6
  • sp^{2}, three electron domains, as in ethene \text{C}_2\text{H}_4
  • sp, two electron domains, as in ethyne \text{C}_2\text{H}_2

Molecules of each of the three hybridization demonstrate spatial configurations that would maximizes the separation between the electron domains.

  • Carbon atoms with a sp^{3} hybridization would demonstrate a tetrahedral configuration with a bond angle of approximately 109.5\textdegree{}
  • Carbon atoms with a sp^{2} hybridization would demonstrate a triangular planar configuration with a bond angle of 120\textdegree{}
  • Carbon atoms with a sp hybridization would demonstrate a linear configuration with a bond angle of 180\textdegree{}

Bond angles are characteristic of the spatial configuration of electron domains and identifies the hybridization of the central carbon atom.

Note that each hydrogen atom contains only one valence electron and would form only single bonds. It takes two valence electrons for oxygen atoms to achieve an octet such that each oxygen form only two bonds at a single time. Therefore given the fact that the carbon is bonded to both hydrogen and oxygen, only the following hybridizations are possible

  • sp^{3} in which the oxygen atom forms a carbon-oxygen double bond with the central carbon atom;
  • sp^{2} in which the oxygen atom forms a single bond with the central carbon atom and with a second atom.

What is the molality of a solution made by dissolving 137.9g of sucrose in 414.1g of water?
Daniel [21]

Answer: 2.71 moles of solute for every 1 kg of solvent.

Explanation: As you know, the molality of a solution tells you the number of moles of solute present for every 1 kg of the solvent.This means that the first thing that you need to do here is to figure out how many grams of water are present in your sample. To do that, use the density of water.500.mL⋅1.00 g1mL=500. g Next, use the molar mass of the solute to determine how many moles are present in the sample.115g⋅1 mole NanO385.0g=1.353 moles NaNO3So, you know that this solution will contain 1.353moles of sodium nitrate, the solute, for 500. g of water, the solvent.In order to find the molality of the solution, you must figure out how many moles of solute would be present for 1 kg=103g of water.103g water⋅1.353 moles NaNO3500.g water=2.706 moles NaNO3You can thus say that the molality of the solution is equal to molality=2.706 mol kg−1≈2.71 mol kg−1 The answer is rounded to three sig figs.

give the chemical composition of the followings : Name Chemical Composition Coal gas Water gas Producer gas Natural gas
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Below.

Explanation:

Coal gas is a mixture of a variety of gases: inflammable gases including, hydrogen, methane, ethylene, carbon monoxide and volatile hydrocarbons and small amounts of non flammable gases like nitrogen and carbon dioxide.

Water gas consists mainly of carbon monoxide and hydrogen.

Producer gas is similar to water gas and consists mainly of carbon monoxide and hydrogen together with nitrogen and carbon dioxide.

Natural gas occurs naturally and consists mainly of methane with small amounts of other hydrocarbon gases.

If a neutral compound is composed of carbon and hydrogen and you know that it has exactly 2 carbons connected by a double bond,
Oksanka [162]

Answer: 4 hydrogens

Explanation:

This is what the structure will look like C=C. Remember that it's important that all structures have a complete octet. As it looks right now each carbon is sharing 4 valence electrons so each needs 2 more bonds to hydrogen complete its octet.
