Answer:

Balanced equation: 2Al(s)+6HCl(aq.)\rightarrow 2AlCl_{3}(aq.)+3H_{2}(g)

Explanation:

  • Al is an metallic species with a standard reduction potential of -1.66 V( E_{Al^{3+}\mid Al}^{0}=-1.66V).
  • H_{2} is present at the intermediate position in electrochemical series with a standard reduction potential of 0 V (E_{H^{+}\mid H_{2}}^{0}=0V).
  • So, when Al is dipped in aqueous solution of HCl, Al is readily oxidized to produce Al^{3+} whereas H^{+} is reduced to H_{2} .
  • Hence, as a whole, aqueous AlCl_{3} and gaseous H_{2} is produced as products.

Balanced equation: 2Al(s)+6HCl(aq.)\rightarrow 2AlCl_{3}(aq.)+3H_{2}(g)

What would indicate that a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire?
Lina20 [59]

Any change in which the composition of material does not change that is it retains its identity but changes its state or form is known as a physical change.

The properties of metal to draw them into wires is known as ductility.  When a copper is drawn into wire the only change that occurs is change in its shape and size no change will take place into its composition that is the wires are still possessing the properties of copper metal. Thus, a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire.

Chemistry an atom of strontium has at least four different isotopes. what is different between an isotope of 86sr and an isotope
lions [1.4K]
Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons.

Remember that all the atoms of an element have the same number of protons. So the only difference between isotopes of an element is the number of neutrons.

86 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 86. Also, remember that the mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons.

87 Sr means that the mass number of this isotope is 87.

So, 86 Sr and 87 Sr differ 1 neutron.

Answer: 1 neutron

8. What group numbers are the transition elements in?
Anna007 [38]
The 38 elements in groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called "transition metals". As with all metals, the transition elements are both ductile and malleable, and conduct electricity and heat. The interesting thing about transition metals is that their valence electrons, or the electrons they use to combine with other elements, are present in more than one shell. This is the reason why they often exhibit several common oxidation states. There are three noteworthy elements in the transition metals family. These elements are iron, cobalt, and nickel, and they are the only elements known to produce a magnetic field I HOPE THIS HELP:)
