Answer:

MgBr₂ + AgNO₃ => Mg(NO₃)₂ + AgBr

Explanation:

Find the element symbol and charge of each element on the periodic table. For polyatomic ions (nitrate), reference your polyatomic ions chart. Use the "partner's charge" rule to find the number of atoms in each compound.

Charges are written as superscripts. "1" is usually not written, just the + or - sign. The charge of silver is 1, which is the (I) bracket roman numeral 1. It is indicated like that because it is multivalent, meaning it has more than one possible charge.

Write each element as an ion (with the charge).

Magnesium is Mg²⁺

Bromide is Br⁻

Silver(I) is Ag⁺

Nitrate is (NO₃)⁻

Write each compound.

REACTANTS SIDE

Magnesium bromide

Mg²⁺Br⁻ Cross over the partner's charge. Since Br is charge 1, Mg has 1 atom. Since Mg has charge 2, Br has 2 atoms.

MgBr₂

Silver(I) nitrate

Ag⁺(NO₃)⁻

AgNO₃ Both have 1 atom because each partner's charge was 1. You do not need to write brackets if nitrate only has 1 atom.

PRODUCTS SIDE

Magnesium nitrate

Mg²⁺(NO₃)⁻

Mg(NO₃)₂ Nitrate has 2 atoms because magnesium's charge is 2.

Silver(I) bromide

Ag⁺Br⁻

AgBr Both have 1 atom.

Write the compounds into an equation. Reactants go on the left side, products go on the right side. Between the reactants and products, write an arrow.

MgBr₂ + AgNO₃ => Mg(NO₃)₂ + AgBr

Which of these statements is not true about chemical reaction rates? a Temperature can change a reaction rate. b The amount of r

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

The statement that is not true is: 'Temperature does not affect the reaction rate'.

Explanation:

a) Temperature can change a reaction rate. This is true

Increasing the temperature increases the reaction rates because of the disproportionately large increase in the number of high energy collisions. It is only these collisions (possessing at least the activation energy for the reaction) which result in a reaction.

For example, the time taken to melt a metal will be much higher at a lower temperature but it will decrease as soon as we increase the temperature

b) The amount of reactants can increase the reaction rate. This is true

A higher concentration of reactants leads to more effective collisions per unit time, which leads to an increased reaction rate.

c) Temperature can decrease the reaction rate. This is true

Decreasing the temperature decreases the reaction rates because of the decrease in the number of high energy collisions. It will result in a slower reaction.

d) Temperature does not affect the reaction rate. This is not true.

The reaction rate is temperature dependent. The reaction rate increases with higher temperature and decreases with lower temperature.

1a. A researcher accidentally spilled some sand into his beaker containing crystalline compound X. Knowing what he did about mel

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Many organic compounds have low melting points. This is due to the fact that many of these compounds are non polar.

However, compound X is slightly polar but still has a melting point which is far less than that of sand composed of a high melting point inorganic material.

Since sand has a much higher melting point compared to compound X, the researcher need not be worried that sand was spilled into his beaker.

Explain the difference in the boiling point of 2-methylpropane and 2-iodo-2-methylpropane in terms of both molecular polarity an

Len [333]

The Boiling Point of 2-methylpropane is approximately -11.7 °C, while, Boiling Point of 2-iodo-2-methylpropane is approximately 100 °C.

As both compounds are Non-polar in nature, So there will be no dipole-dipole interactions between the molecules of said compounds.

The Interactions found in these compounds are London Dispersion Forces.

And among several factors at which London Dispersion Forces depends, one is the size of molecule.

Size of Molecule:
There is direct relation between size of molecule and London Dispersion forces. So, 2-iodo-2-methylpropane containing large atom (i.e. Iodine) experience greater interactions. So, due to greater interactions 2-iodo-2-methylpropane need more energy to separate from its partner molecules, Hence, high temperature is required to boil them.
