Consider the reaction that occurs when copper is added to nitric acid. Upper C u (s) plus 4 upper H upper N upper O subscript 3
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Cu

Explanation:

In the given reaction of the addition of copper to nitric acid,

Cu(s) + 4HNO3(aq) -> Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO2(g) + 2H2O(l)

Cu or copper would be characterized as the reducing agent in this reaction. It is the chemical substance that is losing electrons and being oxidized due to this reduction/loss in this redox reaction as it is the metal that loses electrons by reacting with the non-metals.

What is the total charge of the nucleus of a carbon atom?<br> (1) –6 (3) +6<br> (2) 0 (4) +12
NeX [460]
Carbon atomic number ⇒ 6
Carbon mass number ⇒ 12.

Carbon atomic number - Carbon mass number = number of neutrons.
12 - 6 = 6 neutrons.

Proton charge ⇒ +1

The total charge of the nucleus of a carbon atom ⇒⇒⇒ +6.

So the naswer is (3) +6

Answer:

3.82 x 10²¹ molecules As₂O₃

Explanation:

To find the amount of molecules arsenic (III) oxide (As₂O₃), you need to (1) convert kg to lbs, then (2) convert g As₂O₃ to moles As₂O₃ (via molar mass), and then (3) convert moles to molecules (via Avogadro's number).

1 kilogram = 2.2 lb

Molar Mass (As₂O₃): 2(74.992 g/mol) + 3(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (As₂O₃): 197.978 g/mol

Avogadro's Number:

6.022 x 10²³ molecules = 1 mole

0.0146 g As₂O₃            1 kg                  189 lb
------------------------  x  ---------------  x  ------------------  x   ................
         1 kg                     2.2 lb          

       1 mole                6.022 x 10²³ molecules
x  ------------------  x  ---------------------------------------  = 3.82 x 10²¹ molecules As₂O₃
      197.978 g                        1 mole

Will reward brainliest<br> Explain why all arrhenius acids can be considered bronsted lowry acids
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Explanation:

A bronsted lowry acid just means that it donates a proton.

An arrhenius acid dissolves in water to donate a proton

the only difference is that an arrhenius acid must dissolve in water but it still donates a proton so it is considered a bronsted lowry acid
