A displacement reaction takes place when calcium is placed in a solution of zinc chloride. Which substances will most likely be
Karolina [17]

Hi!


The correct option would be A.


This is because the displacement reaction would take place as follows

Ca + ZnCl2 --> CaCl2 + Zn


A displacement reaction is one in which a substitution occurs, as the more reactive element in the mixture replaces one that is less reactive.

In the electrochemical series, we find Ca higher than Zn, which is indicative of Ca being more reactive, and having the capacity to displace Zn to form a compound.


Option D would be incorrect as no such substitution occurs.

Option B would be incorrect because again, there is no substitution occurring, and also because two metals alone (Ca and Zn in our case) can never react to form a compound.

Option C would be incorrect because it is not possible because CaCl and ZnCl are forms that are too unstable to exist due to an overall positive charge.


Hope this helps!

You have a mass of 54 kg and are sitting on a stool. The normal force the stool applies on you is ...
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

529.2 N

Explanation:

As we have studied the first law of motion, which states that every action has some reaction, equal in magnitude but having an opposite direction.

The force that is acting on the student will be due to gravitational force, that is equal to his weight.

                                              F=mg: 54kg x 9.8m/s^2 =529.2 N

So the weight of student is exerting downwards towards the stool and land. The stool will also exert a force on the student that will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, then it will be 529.2 N.

This is because the student is sitting in a constant state and all the weight is exerted on the stool.

Note: This answer is very generic supposing that all the weight of the student is on stool. But, if we suppose that student's legs are on floor so it means the force of gravity acting on the stool has become less because student's mass on stool is less. So the answer would be a force somehow less than 529.2 N.  However, since the question asked normal force, it would be weight of student in general terms.

Hope it helps!
