<u>Answer:</u> The balanced chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Galvanization is defined as the process in which a protective layer of zinc is applied to iron or steel to prevent the metal from rusting.

Zinc prevents the oxidation of iron and acts as a reducing agent in the process.

The half reaction for the process follows:

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>  Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-

<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>  Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe

Net chemical equation:  Zn+Fe^{2+}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+Fe

Hence, the balanced chemical equation is written above.

An element's atomic number is 68. How many protons would an atom of this element have?
Evgen [1.6K]
Answer: 68.

Explanation:

The atomic number is the number that idenfities an element.

The atomic number is the number of protons of an element.

Every element has a different number of protons.

The elements are arranged in the periodic table as per their atomic number (number of protons).

The first element is hydrogen (H), its atomic number is 1, and it has 1 proton.

The second element is helium (He), its atomic number is 2 (it has 2 protons)-

Those two elements form the first period (row) of the periodic table.

The second row (period) has the elements Li, Be, B, C, N, O, F and Ne, whose respective atomic numbers (number of protons are) 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, respectively.

And so, you may idenfity each of the 118 elements known, with a different atomic number (number of protons).

What is the volume in liters of 5.25 moles of He gas?​
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 117.6 \ L \ He}}

Explanation:

Regardless of the type of gas, 1 mole at standard temperature and pressure (STP) occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. In this case the gas is helium (He).

We can set up a ratio.

\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 \ mol \ He}

Multiply by the given number of moles.

5.25 \ mol \ He *\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 \ mol \ He}

The moles of helium will cancel.

5.25 *\frac { 22.4 \ L \ He}{ 1 }

5.25 * { 22.4 \ L \ He}

Multiply.

117.6 \ L \ He

5.25 moles of helium gas at STP is 117.6 liters of helium.
