When iron metal reacts with sulfuric acid, it produces iron (III) sulfate and hydrogen gas. Balance the equation: Fe + H2SO4 → F

e2(SO4)3 + H2.
Explain why it is necessary to balance chemical equations and why coefficients can be added to an equation, but subscripts cannot be changed

<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. Balanced Equation; 2Fe + 3H₂SO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂
  2. Why balance?: To obey the law of conservation of mass
  3. Subscripts can not be changed, since they show the actual number of atoms of each element in a compound.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The balanced equation for the reaction between the iron metal and sulfuric acid to produces iron (III) sulfate and hydrogen gas is given by;

2Fe + 3H₂SO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

  • Balancing chemical equations ensures that they obey the law of conservation of mass which requires the mass of reactants and the mass of products to be equal.
  • Balancing is done by putting coefficients on reactants and products while not affecting the subscripts as subscripts show the actual number of atoms of an element in a compound.

What are nanochemicals and what are there uses?
NARA [144]

Nanochemicals can be defined as chemicals generated by using nanomaterials (materials that possess of size on nanometer dimensions). The nanochemicals are used in multiple different applications including chemical warfare, bicycle making, armor design and military weapons crafting. The most commonly used and observed nanochemicals are carbon nanotubes that are used a ton in industry for applications such as stronger materials (stronger bicycles).

Smart materials are exquisitely designed materials whose property(ies) can be modified with the use of an external stimulus such as temperature, stress, pH, and so on. Some examples of smart materials include shape memory materials, piezoelectric materials, ferrofluids, self-healing materials, and such. Applications involve memory pillows, memory based solar panels (for satellites), light sensitive glasses, and so on.

Specialized materials are made specifically to perform a specified task or function. Applications involve electronic equipment (high purity silicon & germanium), machine tools (high tungsten high carbon steel), dental filling (dental amalgam), and so on.

In the unbalanced equation given below, what is the element that is gaining electrons?
viktelen [127]

Hey there!:

HCl + MnO2 → MnCl2 + H2O + Cl2

* in HCl the oxidation state of Cl is -1 .

* on the product side the oxidation state is 0 .

* therefore Cl gains electrons .

* in  MnO2 the oxidation state of Mn is +4

* in MnCl2 the oxidation state of Mn is +2

Therefore Mn loses electrons

Answer A

Hope That helps!
