In a balanced equation, the same number of each kind of atom is shown on each side of the equation. calculate the number of iron
Juliette [100K]
There is a missing portion of this question which shows the reaction that needs balancing:

"In a balanced equation, the same number of each kind of atom is shown on each side of the equation. Calculate the number of iron (Fe), oxygen (O), and carbon atoms (C).

Fe2O3+ 3CO --> 2Fe + 3CO<span>2

</span><span>Based on these values, is the equation balanced?</span><span>"
</span>
To check if this equation is balanced we simply compare the number of each element on each side of the equation.

On the reactant side of the equation we have:

2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms

On the product side of the equation we have:

2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms

Therefore, both side of the reaction have the correct and equal number of each atom, so the equation is balanced.

The mass of a large order of french fries is about 170 G what is its approximate weight in pounds
kap26 [50]

Answer:

             0.374 Pound Approximately

Solution:

Gram and Pound are related as,

1 Gram  =  0.0022 Pound (approximately)

As we are given with 170 g of French Fries, so it can be converted into pounds as,

          1 Gram  =  0.0022 Pound

So,

          170 Grams  =  X Pounds

Solving for X,

                      X =  (170 Gram × 0.0022 Pounds) ÷ 1 Gram

                      X =  0.374 Pound Approximately

What are the period and group trends in electronegativities
Leviafan [203]

Electronegativity of an element decreases as we move down a group on the periodic table and electronegativity increases while moving from left to right across a period on the periodic table.

Explanation:

  • The electronegativity increases as we move from left to right across a period because from left to right across a period, the nuclear charge is increasing Hence the attraction for the valence electrons also increases.
  • As we move down a group, the atoms of each element have an increasing number of energy levels. The distance between the nucleus and valence electron shell increases and reduces the attraction for valence electrons. Hence electronegativity decreases as we move from top to bottom down a group.

7. Ionic bonds are at one end of the bond spectrum. What kinds of bonds are at the other end?
blondinia [14]

Answer:

non-polar covalent bonds

this is when the electronegativity difference between the two non-metal atoms is very little to cause a partial charge (delta positive and delta negative; δ+ and δ-) on the atoms
