Firstly, the chemical equation between the calcium metal and water will be:  

Ca(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + H₂(g)  

We can see from the equation the bubbles of hydrogen gas which are formed during the reaction stick to the surface of the metal and hence calcium floats on water.  

The other metal that will float on the water during the reaction is magnesium which have the same chemical behavior like calcium, we can illustrate that by the chemical equation:

Mg(s) + 2 H₂O(l) → Mg(OH)₂(aq) + H₂(g)

Classify the following processes as exothermic or endothermic: (d) a person running;
Sonja [21]

The process releases energy and consequently we classify it as exothermic. (d) a person running releases warmness as muscle mass paintings. therefore, the procedure is exothermic.

d) Exothermic, heat is released as a person runs and muscle groups perform work.

A chemical response or bodily exchange is exothermic if warmth is released by using the system into the environment. Because the surroundings are gaining heat from the system, the temperature of the surroundings increases. The sign of q for an exothermic procedure is -ve due to the fact the device is dropping heat.

Some other examples of exothermic reactions:

1)Snow Formation in Clouds.

2)Burning of a Candle.

3)Rusting of Iron.

4)Formation of Ion Pairs.

5)response of strong Acid and Water. etc...

The _____ forms of the electron carriers nad+/nadh and fadh/fadh2 have high potential energy.
Sergeu [11.5K]
The reduced forms of the electron carries NAD+ / NADH and FADH / FADH2 have high potential energy.

- NAD& FAD used to donate electrons as a reducing agent, they receive electrons from other molecules and then became reduced.

-FAD is called flow in adenine dinucleotide, it is a redox cofactor and it is in many important enzymatic reactions in metabolism.

What is the mole fraction of o2 in a mixture of 15.1 g of o2, 8.19 g of n2, and 2.47 g of h2?
horsena [70]
The solution is
(15.1 g O2) / (31.99886 g O2/mol) = 0.47189 mol O2 (8.19 g N2) / (28.01344 g N2/mol) = 0.29236 mol N2 (2.48 g H2) / (2.01588 g H2/mol) = 1.2302 mol H2 
(0.47189 mol O2) + (0.29236 mol N2) + (1.2302 mol H2) = 1.99445 mol total 
(0.47189 mol O2) / (1.99445 mol total) = 0.237 for O2
