Answer:

the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3

Explanation:

the unbalanced reaction would be

Co(NO₃)₂+ Al → Al(NO₃)₃ + Co

One way to solve is to build a system of linear equations for each element (or group as NO₃) , knowing that the number of atoms of each element is conserved.

For smaller reactions a quick way to solve it can be:

- First the Co as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient

- Then the Al as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient

- After that we look at the nitrates . There are 2 as reactants and 3 as products . Since the common multiple is 6 then multiply the reactant by 3 and the product by 2.

Finally the balanced equation will be

3 Co(NO₃)₂+ 2 Al → 2 Al(NO₃)₃ + 3 Co

then the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3

Choose the statement below that is TRUE?
Deffense [45]

Answer:

option c

Explanation:

Solution is formed when a solute is dissolved a solvent.

Formation of solution is decided by the interaction between solute and solvent.  

When a solute is dissolved, the intermolecular interactions in between solute molecules are broken. And New interactions are formed between solute and solvent.

In order to form solution, the solute-solvent interactions must be stronger than solute-solute and solvent-solvent in interactions.

Therefore, among given the option c is correct.

How can convection in the mantle affect the positions of Earth's continents?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Scientists believe that convection circulation within the mantle helps continents to move. As heat from Earth's innermost layer—the core—transfers to the bottom layer of mantle rock, the rock warms, softens, and rises upward. ... This churning motion in the mantle appears to be a major factor in plate movement.

Carbons from acetyl CoA are transferred to the citric acid cycle. Which is the first round of the citric acid cycle that could p
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

In the third step of the citric acid cycle, the oxidation of isocitrate takes place and one molecule of carbon dioxide is released.

Explanation:

In the first step of citric acid cycle, acetylCoA combines with a four-carbon molecule, oxaloacetate, forming a six-carbon molecule, citrate.

In the second step, the citrate in the presence of enzyme anicotase is converted into isocitrate.

<u>In the third step, the oxidation of isocitrate takes place and one molecule of carbon dioxide is released leaving behind one five-carbon molecule called as α-ketoglutarate. During this step, NAD⁺ is reduced to form NADH. </u>

<u>This is first round of the citric acid cycle that could possibly release a carbon atom originating from this acetyl CoA.</u>

On series of reaction, another carbon dioxide molecule also being relased and oxaloacetate is regenerated again.
