1) The overall balanced photosynthesis reaction:  

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.

Plants convert solar energy into the chemical energy of sugars (food).

2) Chemical reaction of cellular respiration:  

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O.

Organic carbon (glucose) is transformed into inorganic carbon (carbon dioxide) that goes into atmosphere.

3) Gasoline combustion:

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O.

Gasoline is a mixture of many different hydrocarbons: alkanes (paraffins), cycloalkanes and alkenes (olefins).

Gasoline is being burn.

4) Balanced chemical reaction of forming rust: 4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃.

Forming rust usually last for few months and iron changing in another substance with different properties.

5) An electrochemical cell (voltaic or galvanic cell) is generating electrical energy from chemical reactions.  

In galvanic cell, specie (for example zinc and zinc cations) from one half-cell, lose electrons (oxidation) and species from the other half-cell (for example copper and copper cations) gain electrons (reduction).  

Oxidation on the zinc anode: Zn(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.

Reduction on the copper cathode: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu(s).

Copper is forming from the solution, that is chemical change.

6) Balanced chemical reaction: CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂.

Making limewater  (diluted solution of calcium hydroxide).

7) Neutralization is reaction in which an acid and a base react quantitatively with each other. In this reaction, there are no acids and bases, only salts.

Balanced chemical reaction of vinegar and antacid:

2CH₃COOH(aq) + Mg(OH)₂(aq) → (CH₃COO)₂Mg(s) + 2H₂O(l).

Precipation is formed.

8) Balanced chemical reaction of magnesium and hydrochloric acid:

MgO + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂O(g).

Acid dissolves metal oxides.

9) Chemical reaction of silver in air:

4Ag + 2H₂S + O₂ → 2Ag₂S (tarnish) + 2H₂O.

Silver change color in the air.

10) Forming of patina: 2CuO + CO₂ + H₂O → Cu₂CO₃(OH)₂.

Brass (copper) change color to green.

How many molecules of H2O and O2 is present in 8.5g of H2O?​
Igoryamba

Answer:

2.8 x 10²³ molecules H₂O

1.4 x 10²³ molecules O₂

Explanation:

First, you will need the balanced chemical equation for the formation of water:

2H₂ + O₂ -> 2H₂O

This will help in determining the mole ratios between water and oxygen, which we will need later.

Let's first calculate the number of H₂O (water) molecules. This will require stoichiometry. We are also given the mass, so we must convert mass into moles, then moles into molecules. mass -> moles -> molecules

8.5 g H₂O x (1 mol H₂O/18.01528 g H₂O) x (6.02 x 10²³ molecules H₂O/1 mol H₂O) = 2.8404 x 10²³ molecules H₂O

Rounded to 2 significant digits: 2.8 x 10²³ molecules H₂O

Now, to find the molecules of water, we can begin with the same stoichiometric equation, but before we convert to molecules, we will have to convert moles of water to moles of oxygen. This is where we will use the mole ratio of water to oxygen we got from the balanced chemical equation earlier. 2H₂O:1O₂

8.5 g H₂O x (1 mol H₂O/18.01528 g H₂O) x (1 mol O₂/2 mol H₂O) x (6.02 x 10²³ molecules O₂/1 mol O₂) = 1.4202 x 10²³ molecules O₂

Rounded to 2 significant digits: 1.4 x 10²³ molecules O₂

Which of the following is the most recent addition to the accepted model of the atom? (2 points) Atoms are indivisible particles
Georgia [21]
The accepted model of an atom was made by Schrodinger, which is known as the quantum mechanical model. Unlike Bohr's model, electrons are represented as a cloud and not small balls orbiting the nucleus. There is no define path of electrons in Schrodinger's model, but it can predict the odds of where an electron is located. 

The answer to your question is then Electrons form a cloud around the nucleus.
