In a comparison of metals to nonmetals,metals tend to have

The chemical formula for baking soda is NaHCO. Does baking soda contain metallic or non-metallic elements? Which one is which?

Fed [463]

Answer:

Both metals and non metals.

Explanation:

The correct formula of baking soda is NaHCO₃,

An element is considered to be metal if it is able to give electron easily due to very low ionization energy.

A non metal is ready to accept electron easily due to high electron affinity.

In sodium bicarbonate :

Na: Sodium : metal

H : Hydrogen: non metal (although placed with first group, alkali metals, in the periodic table as it readily loses electron like metals)

C: Carbon: Non metal

O : Oxygen : Non metal.

So the compound contains both metals and non metals.

A 100 W light bulb is placed in a cylinder equipped with a moveable piston. The light bulb is turned on for 2.0×10−2 hour, and t

drek231 [11]

Answer:

(a) ΔU = 7.2x10²

(b) W = -5.1x10²

(c) q = 5.2x10²

Explanation:

From the definition of power (p), we have:

$p = \frac {\Delta W}{\Delta t} = \frac {\Delta U}{\Delta t}$ (1)

where, p: is power (J/s = W (watt)) W: is work = ΔU (J) and t: is time (s)

(a) We can calculate the energy (ΔU) using equation (1):

$\Delta U = p \cdot \Delta t = 100 \frac{J}{s} \cdot 2.0\cdot 10^{-2} h \cdot \frac{3600s}{1h} = 7.2 \cdot 10^{2} J$

(b) The work is related to pressure and volume by:

$\Delta W = -p \Delta V$

where p: pressure and ΔV: change in volume = V final - V initial

$\Delta W = - p \cdot (V_{fin} - V_{ini}) = - 1.0 atm (5.88L - 0.85L) = - 5.03 L \cdot atm \cdot \frac{101.33J}{1 L\cdot atm} = -5.1 \cdot 10^{2} J$

(c) By the definition of Energy, we can calculate q:

$\Delta U = \Delta W + \Delta q$

where Δq: is the heat transfer

$\Delta q = \Delta U - \Delta W = 7.2 J - (-5.1 \cdot 10^{2} J) = 5.2 \cdot 10^{2} J$

I hope it helps you!

Answer: The moon was 20 farms away from earth so If I ate a couch then went to my treadmile outside of my cow, I could add the letter Grammar to my checklist.

Explanation: You see, If there was a man who had no arms or legs he would be walking with his feet right? SO If I added chickens to my head and ate the eifel tower am I 50% a choclate bar. Hope this helps

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

have the same number of atoms of each element in the reactants and in the products

Explanation:

The basic principle in balancing a chemical equation would simply be to have the same number of atoms of each element in the reactants and in the products.

A balanced chemical equation is one that has the same number of atoms of each element on the reactant and the product's side of the equation. For example, consider the equation below:

$H_2 + O_2 --> H_2O$

On the reactant's side, there are 2 atoms of H and O while there are 2 atoms of H and 1 atom of O on the product's side. This is an imbalanced equation. In order for it to be balanced, the number of atoms of H and O on the reactant side must be equal to the number of H and O on the product side as below.

$2H_2 + O_2 --> 2H_2O$
