Answer:

Net ionic: Mg(OH)_{2}+2NH_{4}^{+}\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2NH_{3}+2H_{2}O

Explanation:

OH^{-} in Mg(OH)_{2} reacts with NH_{4}^{+} to form NH_{3} and H_{2}O.

Due to this acid-base reaction, Mg(OH)_{2} become soluble whenever NH_{4}NO_{3} is added to suspension of Mg(OH)_{2}.

In this reaction, NH_{4}NO_{3} acts as an acid and Mg(OH)_{2} acts as a base.

Molecular equation: Mg(OH)_{2}+2NH_{4}NO_{3}\rightarrow Mg(NO_{3})_{2}+2NH_{3}+2H_{2}O

Total ionic: Mg(OH)_{2}+2NH_{4}^{+}+2NO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2NO_{3}^{-}+2NH_{3}+2H_{2}O

Net ionic: Mg(OH)_{2}+2NH_{4}^{+}\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2NH_{3}+2H_{2}O

Determine the LIMITING reactant in the following balanced equation:
padilas [110]

Answer:

KBr is limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of  KBr =4g

Mass of Cl₂ = 6 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2KBr + Cl₂      →    2KCl + Br₂

Number of moles of KBr:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 4 g/ 119 gmol

Number of moles = 0.03 mol

Number of moles of Cl₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 6 g/ 70 gmol

Number of moles = 0.09 mol

Now we will compare the moles of reactant with product.

              KBr            :            KCl

                2              :              2

            0.03            :            0.03

             KBr            :              Br₂

                2             :               1

             0.03           :          1/2×0.03= 0.015

               Cl₂             :            KCl

                 1              :              2

            0.09            :           2/1×0.09 = 0.18

               Cl₂             :              Br₂

                1              :               1

             0.09           :            0.09

Less number of moles of product are formed by the KBr thus it will act as limiting reactant while Cl₂  is present in excess.

Which of these is evidence that an unbalanced force is acting on an object?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The motion of the object is changing

Explanation:

Objects will only change their motion (direction, speed) if there is an unbalanced force of some kind acting on them. Balanced forces result in no change in the object's state of motion.
