Answer:

I would recommend them becoming an Analytical Chemist because Analytical Chemists examine and identify various elements and compounds to find out the composition, structure, and nature of substances and they determine the concentration of chemical pollutants in soil, water,and air. I would recommend taking inorganic, organic, analytical, and physical chemistry as well as computer science, physics, and environmental science

How is a coefficient used to balance an equation
ludmilkaskok [199]

Let's start to understand this question by a simple combustion reaction involving oxidation of Ethane in the presence of Oxygen. When Ethane is burned in the presence of Oxygen it produces Carbon Dioxide and Water respectively. Therefore, the equation is as,

                                C₂H₆  +  O₂    →    CO₂  +  H₂O

Above reaction shows the reaction and the equation is unbalanced. Balancing chemical equation is important because according to law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed. Hence, we should balance the number of elements on both side.

                                       LHS                      RHS

Carbon Atoms                  2                            1

Hydrogen Atoms              6                           2

Oxygen Atoms                  2                           3

It means this equation is not obeying the law. Now, how to balance? One way is as follow,

                                C₂H₆  +  O₃    →    C₂O₂  +  H₆O

                                       LHS                      RHS

Carbon Atoms                  2                            2

Hydrogen Atoms              6                           6

Oxygen Atoms                  3                           3

We have balanced the equation by changing the subscripts. But, we have messed up the chemical composition of compounds and molecules like Oxygen is converted into Ozone.

Therefore, we will change the coefficients (moles) to balance the equation as,

                                C₂H₆  +  7/2 O₂    →    2 CO₂  +  3 H₂O

                                       LHS                      RHS

Carbon Atoms                  2                            2

Hydrogen Atoms              6                           6

Oxygen Atoms                  7                           7

Now, by changing the coefficients we have balanced the equation without disturbing the chemical composition of compounds and molecules.

Describe the possible components of a buffer solution. (Select all that apply.)
AlexFokin [52]

Both D and G options. Weak base and its conjugate acid or weak acid and its conjugate base are the possible components of a buffer solution.

Explanation:

Buffer solution is the solution which gets easily dissolved in water and so called as "Aqueous solution".

Buffer solution is essentially made up of two components Known as:

i.) Weak base and its conjugate acid

ii.) Weak acid and its conjugate base

This weak acid and base solution is used to maintain the pH value of the solution in a balanced way.

When the weak acid or base solution is added to strong acid or base solution that is the way pH gets balanced .

In one word buffer solution is the solution which resists for the pH change when strong acids or bases are added.

Which reaction may be described as an acid-base neutralization reaction? 1. be(oh)2 + h2so4 → beso4 + 2 h2o 2. ba(oh)2 + 2 licl
Svetradugi [14.3K]
 The reaction that describe an acid an acid- base neutralization reaction is

Be(OH)2 + H2SO4 = BeSO4 +2 H2O

Neutralization reaction involve an acid  and a base reaction whereby the acid  neutralization the base. for the reaction above Be(OH)2 is  the base while H2SO4 is the acid  thus H2SO4  neutralizes  Be(OH)2 to form BeSO4 and H2O

Which of these elements is a transition metal? francium (Fr) beryllium (Be) chromium (Cr) gallium (Ga) bismuth (Bi)
vitfil [10]
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. It would be chromium (Cr) that is a transition metal. The 38 elements in groups 3 through 12 of the periodic table are called "transition metals<span>". Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
