Answer:

Aluminum is oxidized from 0 to +3

Explanation:

In order to make the question clearer, let me give the reaction equation in terms of chemical symbols. It will aid your understanding of the question posed.

2Al(s) + 6HCl(aq) ----> 2AlCl3(aq) + 3H2(g)

You have to recall that oxidation has to do with increase in oxidation number. A specie is said to be oxidized when the said specie experiences an increase in oxidation number. A reduction on the other hand occurs when a specie undergoes a decrease in oxidation number.

Since the oxidation number of an uncombined element is zero, aluminum has an oxidation number of zero on the left hand side. Over on the right hand side, the oxidation number of aluminium increases to +3. Hence aluminum was oxidized from left to right.

How many grams of H2 will react with 350 g of N2?
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

10.80

Explanation:

As per the equation, let us calculate the mole ratio. N2+3H2→2NH3. As per the equation one mole of nitrogen  reacts with 1 mol of hydrogen.

In terms of mass. 28.01 g of nitrogen needs 3 mol of hydrogen or 6.048 g of hydrogen.

We can set up the ratio;

Suppose the mass of a jelly bean is less than the mass of a gum drop.
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Since it is given that the mass of a jelly bean is less than the mass of a gum drop.

So, when we counted out 10 of each kind of candy and measured the mass of each kind of candy, the mass of the jellybeans would be less than the mass of the gumdrops.

This is because mass of jelly bean is less and even if we take take or more jelly beans then also their total mass will remain less than the total mass of same number of gum drops
