Enter a balanced equation for the reaction between solid nickel(II)(II) oxide and carbon monoxide gas that produces solid nickel
velikii [3]

Answer: A balanced equation for the given reaction is NiO(s) + CO \rightarrow Ni(s) + CO_{2}(g).

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

NiO(s) + CO \rightarrow Ni(s) + CO_{2}(g)

Number of atoms on the reactant side is as follows.

  • O = 2
  • C = 1

Number of atoms on the product side is as follows.

  • Ni = 1
  • O = 2
  • C = 1

Since number of atoms on both the reactant and product sides are equal. Hence, the reaction equation is balanced.

Thus, we can conclude that a balanced equation for the given reaction is NiO(s) + CO \rightarrow Ni(s) + CO_{2}(g).

How do you write chemical formulas
sasho [114]

There are things called "Reactants" and "Products" All chemical equations look something like "A + B →C (+ D...)," in which each letter variable is an element or a molecule (a collection of atoms held together by chemical bonds). The arrow represents the reaction or change taking place. Some equations may have a double-headed arrow (↔), which indicates that the reaction can proceed either forward or backward. When a compound has been written out, you must identify the elements and know their chemical symbols. The first element written is “first name” of the compound. Use the periodic table to find the chemical symbol for the element. So here is an example: Dinitrogen hexafluoride. The first element is nitrogen and the chemical symbol for nitrogen is N. To know the numbers of atoms that are present for each element you can just look at the prefix from the element For example: Dinitrogen has a the prefix “di-“ which means 2; therefore, there are 2 atoms of nitrogen present.

Write dinitrogen as N2.

Now for the second element or "last name" of the compound whatever will follow the first element so like; Dinitrogen hexafluoride. The second element is fluorine. Simply replace the “ide” ending with the actual element name. The chemical symbol for fluorine is F.


But the more you practice with, the easier it will be to decipher chemical formulas in the future and learn the language of chemistry.

Sulfur dioxide: SO2

Carbon tetrabromide: CBr4

Diphosphorus pentoxide: P2O5   ← That is one of the examples I'll give you.

The atomic masses of 151eu and 153eu are 150.919860 and 152.921243 amu, respectively. The average atomic mass of europium is 151
vitfil [10]

Answer:-  The natural abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u is 0.478 or 47.8% and ^1^5^3_E_u is 0.522 or 52.2% .

Solution:- Average atomic mass of an element is calculated from the atomic masses of it's isotopes and their abundances using the formula:

Average atomic mass = mass of first isotope(abundance) + mass of second isotope(abundance)

We have been given with atomic masses for ^1^5^1_E_u and ^1^5^3_E_u as 150.919860 and 152.921243 amu, respectively.  Average atomic mass of Eu is 151.964 amu.

Sum of natural abundances of isotopes of an element is always 1. If we assume the abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u as n then the abundance of ^1^5^3_E_u would be 1-n .

Let's plug in the values in the formula:

151.964=150.919860(n)+152.921243(1-n)

151.964=150.919860n+152.921243-152.921243n

on keeping similar terms on same side:

151.964-152.921243=150.919860n-152.921243n

-0.957243=-2.001383n

negative sign is on both sides so it is canceled:

0.957243=2.001383n

n=\frac{0.957243}{2.001383}

n=0.478

The abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u is 0.478 which is 47.8%.  

The abundance of ^1^5^3_E_u is = 1-0.478

= 0.522 which is 52.2%

Hence, the natural abundance of ^1^5^1_E_u is 0.478 or 47.8% and ^1^5^3_E_u is 0.522 or 52.2% .
