The chemical reaction of Cavendish involving zinc would be a reaction between hydrochloric acid and zinc yielding zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. The balanced chemical equation would be:
2Zn + 2HCl = 2ZnCl + H2
This is an example of a single replacement reaction where zinc replaces hydrogen in the acid molecule.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since the energy involved during a heating process is shown below:
Whereas the specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g°C), we can compute the heated mass of water by the addition of 11.9 kJ (11900 J) of heat as shown below:
Thus, by plugging in, we obtain:
Best regards!
Answer: The author used the word "conversely" because the first statement he made is in CONTRAST to the second statement he made.
Explanation:
Matter is made up of atoms or molecules that are in constant motion. The motion of these tiny particles ( molecules) gives the object energy. The movement of these molecules depends on the state of matter which includes
--> GASEOUS STATE: Here, the particles are completely free to move and are always in motion.
--> LIQUID STATE: particles in this state slide by one another and are always in motion.
--> SOLID STATE: particles in this state are held tightly together but are always in motion.
Also, the molecules in motion are greatly affected by temperature changes. Increase in temperature will cause the particles in the liquid to move faster. Such is seen when soup is heated, the molecules travel faster than before. But the OPPOSITE is seen in an ice cube. This is because the ice cube is in solid state and of a lower temperature.
Answer:
1) The elements have filled valence levels.
Explanation:
Since they have filled valence levels, they're stable and don't need to electrons to fill their valence shells since they're already full.
2) False, They do have electrons
3) False, He does have only one electron shell, but going down the periods, every next element have one more electron shell than a preceding one has.
4)False, they're actually the smallest atoms of their respective period
Answer:
SiO2(s) + 3C(s) ------> SiC(s) + 2CO(g)
Explanation:
The formula for silicon oxide is SiO2 and carbon is C. silicon carbide is SiC
and carbon monoxide is CO.
An arrow is always used to separate the reactants (left) and products (right).
A balanced equation must contain equal number of atoms in each side of the equation.
For example in the equation above, there are 1 atom of silicon appears on each side; 2 atoms of oxygen and three atoms of carbon.
