Answer:A

Explanation:

A nuclear reaction is balanced by ensuring that the Masses and charges of te reactants and products are exactly balanced on the left and right hand side of the reaction equation. If there are 60 mass units on the LHS and manganese has only 56 mass units then four mass units are left. If there is no charge on a neutron and there is a charge of 27 on the cobalt, then two charges are left. Four mass units and a charge of +2 corresponds to a helium which is actually an alpha particle.

Convert 21.8 in^3 to liters
Slav-nsk [51]

Taking into account the change of units, 21.8 in³ is equal to 0.357238 L.

<h3>Definition of rule of three</h3>

The rule of three is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them.

If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, that is, when one magnitude increases, so does the other (or when one magnitude decreases, so does the other) , the direct rule of three must be applied using the following formula, where a, b and c known data and x the variable to be calculated:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

So: x= (c×b)÷ a

The direct rule of three is the rule applied in this case where there is a change of units.

<h3>in³ to liters</h3>

To perform in this case the conversion of units, you must first know that 1 in³ = 0.0163871 L. So, the rule of three can be used as follow: if 1 in³ is 0.0163871 L, 21.8 in³ equals how many L?

1 in³ ⇒ 0.0163871 L

21.8 in³ ⇒ x

So: x= (21.8 in³ ×0.0163871 L)÷ 1 in³

Solving:

<u><em>x= 0.357238 L</em></u>

In summary, 21.8 in³ is equal to 0.357238 L.

Which of the following equations is balanced correctly and has the correct products for the reactants RbNO3 and BeF2?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

2RbNO₃ + BeF₂ → Be(NO₃)₂ + 2RbF, because Be keeps a 2+ charge throughout the reaction

Explanation:

2RbNO₃ + BeF₂ → Be(NO₃)₂ + 2RbF, because Be keeps a 2+ charge throughout the reaction

Rb is a +1 cation, NO3 is a -1 anion, Be is a +2 cation and F is a -1 anion.

In writing an ionic compound the charge of the cation becomes the subscript of the anion and the charge of the anion becomes the subscript of the cation.  

So the ionic compound formed between Be2+ and F- is BeF2. The ionic compound formed between Be2+ and NO3- is Be(NO₃)₂.  

As there are two NO₃ on the product side it is balanced by writing a 2 coefficient before RbNO₃ on the reactant side.  

And as there are two F on the reactant side it is balanced by writing a 2 coefficient before RbF on the product side.

Which of the following represents the ester functional group?
Komok [63]

Answer:

D. C=O

Explanation:

Esters are formed by the condensation of alcohols and acids with minus water. During the reaction, at least one -OH group is replaced by an O- alkyl group. The resulting compound is an ester and has a characteristic fruity smell. Its functional group is C=O
