The complete answer contains the answer choices.


This is the complete question:


Atoms of which element react spontaneously with Mg2+(aq)? (1)chromium
(2)barium
(3)iron
(4)zinc


Answer: option 2. barium.


Explanation.


1) Mg ²⁺ (aq) is the aquous cation of the metal Mg.


2) Only a metal more reactive than Mg will be able to exchange with it the oxidation states.


3) Mg is an earth alkalyne metal (group 2 of the periodic table). The metals from this group are more reactive than the metals in the groups to its right: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, ... Only the alkalyne metals (those in group 1) are more reactive than the earth alkalyne metals.


4) Of the list, barium is the only alkalyne metal, so it is more reactive than Mg and will be able to deliver 2 electrons to transform the cations Mg²⁺ into Mg while the very Ba will become Ba²⁺.


5) Chromium, iron and zinc are transition metals, so less metallic (reactive) than Mg.

Write a chemical equation for the reaction that occurs in the following cell: Cu|Cu2+(aq)||Ag+(aq)|Ag. Of the two metals, copper
KatRina [158]

Answer:

Answer is given below.

Explanation:

Anode is that electrode where oxidation occurs. Cathode is that electrode where reduction occurs.

In cell representation, half cell present left to salt-bridge notation(\parallel ) is anodic system and another half cell present right to salt-bridge notation(\parallel ) is cathodic system.

So anode is Cu and cathode is Ag.

oxidation: Cu-2e^{-}\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq.)

[reduction: Ag^{+}+e^{-}\rightarrow Ag]\times 2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

chemical equation: Cu+2Ag^{+}(aq.)\rightarrow Cu^{2+}(aq.)+2Ag

Oxidizing agent is that species which takes electron from another species. Here Ag^{+}(aq.) takes electron from Cu. Hence Ag^{+}(aq.)  is the oxidizing agent.

Reducing agent is that species which gives electron to another species. Here Cu gives electron to Ag^{+}(aq.) . Hence Cu  is the reducing agent.

Western regions Facts
babunello [35]
This region has both the state with the smallest population (Wyoming) and the largest population (California).
Alaska's land area is much bigger than any other state, but it has one of the lowest populations.
The western US takes up about half of the land of the United States.

The western United States is the region comprising the westernmost states of the United States. As American settlement in the U.S. expanded westward, the meaning of the term the West changed. Before about 1800, the crest of the Appalachian Mountains was seen as the western frontier.


Hope this helps :)

Serjik [45]

Answer:

Electrons, with a charge of -1.

Explanation:

The nucleus of the atom is composed of protons and neutrons.

The nucleus is where the bulk of the mass of an atom is found.

Electrons orbit the nucleus in various energy levels.

Protons have a charge of +1, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have a charge of -1.
