Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A reaction in which an acid reacts with base and results in the formation of salt and water is known as a neutralization reaction.

For example, $2HCl + CaOH \rightarrow CaCl_{2} + H_{2}O$ is a neutralization reaction as salt here is calcium chloride.

Thus, we can conclude that the reactants in a neutralization reaction are an acid and a base.

ok thank you for elaborating and you are correct in a neutralization reaction the reactants are the acid and base. the salt and water would be the product and the two elements could be anything meaning that it is most likely a mixture

Hope this helps

Gold has a density of 1,200 lb./ft. What is the density of gold in g/em? For conversion factors use I lb. 453.6 g, and l inch-2.

Jlenok [28]

Answer: The density of gold in $g/cm^3$ is $19.22g/cm^3$

Explanation:

Density is defined as the ratio of mass of the object and volume of the object. Mathematically,

$\text{Density}=\frac{\text{Mass of the object}}{\text{Volume of the object}}$

We are given:

Density of gold = $1200lb/ft^3$

Using conversion factors:

1 lb = 453.6 g

1 feet = 12 inches

1 inch = 2.54 cm

Converting given quantity into $g/cm^3$ , we get:

$\Rightarrow (\frac{1200lb}{ft^3})\times (\frac{453.6g}{1lb})\times (\frac{1ft}{12inch})^3\times (\frac{1inch}{2.54cm})^3\\\\\Rightarrow 19.22g/cm^3$

Hence, the density of gold in $g/cm^3$ is $19.22g/cm^3$

elixir [45]

Answer:

Reducing sugars are absent

Explanation:

Benedict's solution is an substance used in testing sugars. It is mixture of sodium carbonate, sodium citrate and copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate. It can be used instead of Fehling's solution in testing for the presence of reducing sugars.

Reducing sugars contain the -CHO group. If there is no colour change after the addition of Benedict's solution, then we can conclude that reducing sugars are absent.

If you stacked Avogadro's number of pennies one on top of the other on Earth's surface, how far would the stack extend (in kilom

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Avogadro number of pennies will extend to a distance of 6.02 * 10¹⁷ km

Note: The question is missing some parts. The complete question is as follows;

A penny has a thickness of approximately 1.0 mm . If you stack ed Avogadro's number of pennies one on top of the other on Earth 's surface, how far would the stack extend (in km)? [For comparison, the sun is about 150 million km from Earth and the nearest star (Proxim a Centauri) is about 40 trillion km from Earth.]

Explanation:

Avogadro number = 6.02 * 10²³

thickness of a penny = 1.0 mm

I mm = 0.001 m

Thickness of Avogadro number of pennies stacked one upon another will be:

6.02 * 10²³ * 0.001 m = 6.02 * 10²⁰ m

Distance in km;

1 m = 0.001 km

therefore, 6.02 * 10²⁰ m = 6.02 * 10²⁰ * 0.001 km = 6.02 * 10¹⁷ km

Avogadro number of pennies will extend to a distance of 6.02 * 10¹⁷ km

Explain how stagnant sulfureted water may greatly accelerate metallic corrosion. (See the Email Link in Moodle) | (7 marks)

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

sulfur promotes oxide-reduction reactions.

Explanation:

In stagnant water, some solutes tend to precipitate. When Sulfur precipitate and touch a metal, Sulfur is being reduced and the metal is oxidated. This depends of potential redox of each element.
