Answer:

No.

Explanation:

No. There is 1 atom of Ca on the left and 2 Ca's on the right and 2 OH's on the left and 4 on the right.

The balanced equation is:

4OH- + 2Ca2+ ----> 2Ca(OH)2.

Answer:

Is not balanced

Explanation:

For an equation to be balanced there must be on each side of the equation the same amount of each atom.

2 OH− + Ca 2+ ----> 2 Ca(OH)2

On the left we have the following amounts of atoms:

Ca = 1

O = 2

H = 2

Total charges = 0

And on the right:

Ca = 2

O = 4

H = 4

Total charges = 0

We can see that on the right we have twice as many atoms as on the left, so we can delete a molecule of Ca(OH)2

2 OH− + Ca 2+ ----> Ca(OH)2

Now the equation is balanced because there are the same number of atoms on both sides and also the charges are equal in both sides.

What is the mass in grams of 6.12 x 10^20 molecules of caffeine, C8H10N4O2?

baherus [9]

$6,02*10^{23} \ \ \ \ \ \ \rightarrow \ \ \ \ \ 194,2g\\
6,12 * 10^{20} \ \ \ \ \ \ \rightarrow \ \ \ \ \ x\\\\
x=\frac{6,12*10^{20}*194,2g}{6,02*10^{23}}\approx197*10^{-3}g=0,197g$

An atom has 18 protons, 18 electrons, and 20 neutrons. This atom has _____.

Lera25 [3.4K]

an atom that has 18 protons, 18 neutrons and 20 neutrons. This atom has mass number of 38

mass number is calculated as number of protons + number on neutrons

therefore the mass number of the atom = 18+20= 38

Since the atom has a electronic configuration of 2.8.8,the atom cannot be negatively or positively charged because it is stable.

The atomic number of the atom is 18 since atomic number is equal to number of protons

PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN!Calculate the energy required to heat 187.0 g of ammonia from 36.1 °C to 52.9 °C. Assume the specific he

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

$E=1.48x10^4J$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the energy implied in a heating process is computed by using the following equation:

$E=mC(T_f-T_i)$

Whereas m is the mass, C the specific heat and T the temperature. In such a way, by plugging in the given mass, specific heat and temperatures, we obtain the following energy:

$E=187.0g*4.703\frac{J}{g\°C} (52.9\°C-36.1\°C)\\\\E=1.48x10^4J$

Considering that the specific heat can by used by unit of °C or K because their difference is equivalent.

Regards!
