Chemistry
1 answer:
guapka [62]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Both gives hydroxides, but

Calcium reacts with water to give calcium hydroxide Ca(OH)2. this product is slightly soluble in water.

Aluminium  is less reactive than Ca, so it reacts with only steam, to give aluminium hydroxide Al(OH)3. This product is insoluble in water.

Identify the correct mole ratio for each substance. Sodium chloride (NaCl) Na:Cl = 1: Ammonium nitrate (NHNO) H:O = 4:
Norma-Jean [14]

<u>Answer:</u> The mole ratio of H : O in ammonium nitrate is 4 : 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a compound named ammonium nitrate having formula NH_4NO_3

There are 3 elements in this compound which are nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen.

To calculate the mole ratio, we write the ratio of their subscripts. For this compound, it is:

N:H:O::2:4:3

The mole ratio of H and O for this compound is 4 : 3.

The atomic nucleus contains two subatomic particles, the proton and the neutron. Atoms of different elements have different numb
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A) 1 to 1.

Explanation:

A stab;e nuclei requires the presence of a neutron to accommodate the the protons repulsion forces within the nucleus. An increase in the number of protons should be accompanied by an even more instantaneous increase in the number of neutrons to balance the forces in the nucleus. If there is an excess of neutrons or a deficit in protons a state of unbalance exists in the nucleus, which results to nuclear instability.

Therefore, the ratio of neutrons to protons is an appropriate way in foretelling nuclear stability and a stable nuclei is known to have a proton to neutron ratio of 1:1 and the number of protons and neutrons in the stable nuclei are usually even numbers.

What determines the amount of chemical energy a substance has?
Ratling [72]


Chemical energy  is the kind of energy stored in the bonds formed by atoms and molecules in chemical compounds and elements.  This energy is  released during a chemical  reaction and  heat is often given out in the process. These kind of reactions where heat is given out as a by product are called exothermic reactions.

The major factor that determines how much chemical energy a substance has is the mass of that substance. Mass is defined as the amount of matter in a substance.

The higher  the mass of a substance, the more concentrated that substance is and subsequently the greater the number of atoms and molecules.

Logically, the higher the number of atoms and molecules  then the greater the number of bonds in that substance and subsequently the more the amount of chemical energy  stored therein.

Where do the protons and electrons come from that are used in the electron transport chain?
blondinia [14]
The energy generated by the movement of electrons is used to pump electrons across the inner mitochondrial membrane to an area of higher concentration. 17. Where do these protons (H+) come from? The originally came from a glucose molecule and were carried to the electron transport chain by NADH and FADH2.

The answer would be glucose molecule.

Why was meteorology such a late developer compared to other branches of science?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Because of the difficulties of measuring the atmosphere's properties above the earth's reachable surface

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, meteorology is the branch of science studying the atmosphere in its weather processes and forecasting and it had a late development because of the difficulties of measuring the atmosphere's properties above the earth's reachable surface. We cannot forget that even nowadays, it is very difficult to predict upcoming weathers with the 100 % assurance and with many days in advance.

Best regards.
