Answer:

They all react with acids.  

Explanation:

Thus, they decrease the concentration of stomach acid and provide heartburn relief.

The equations for the reactions are:

  1. Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl ⟶ MgCl₂ + 2H₂O
  2. Al(OH)₃ + 3HCl ⟶ AlCl₃ + 3H₂O
  3. CaCO₃ +2HCl ⟶ CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

Balance this equation: Al+ HNO3 ---- H2 + Al(NO3)3​
romanna [79]

Answer:

2Al+ 6HNO3 ---- 3H2 + 2Al(NO3)3​

Explanation:

Put coefficient a,b,c, and d for calculation:

a Al + b HNO3 = c H2 + d Al(NO3)3

for Al: a = d

for H: b = 2c

for N: b = 3d

for O: 3b = 9d

Suppose a=1, then d=1, b=3, c=3/2

multiply 2 to make all natural number, a=2, then b=6, c=3, d=2

Ethanol (C2H5OH) is produced from the fermentation of sucrose in the presence of enzymes.
madam [21]

actual yield of ethanol = 305.0g

molar mass of sucrose = 342g

molar mass of ethanol  =46g

mass of sucrose = 665g

mole of sucrose = mass / molar mass = 665/342

mole of sucrose =1.9 mole

sucrose :  C2H5OH

       1      :  4

     1.9     : 1.9x4 =7.6 mole of C2H5OH are formed

mass (therotical yield ) of C2H5OH= mole x mass

mass (therotical yield ) of C2H5OH= 7.6 x 46 = 349.6g

percent yields of ethanol =  actual /therotical x100

=305/349.6x100 = 87.24 %
