Answer:

2Al2O3 (l) ---> 4Al (l) + 3O2 (g)

Explanation:

The reaction is the electrolysis of aluminium oxide. It decomposes aluminium oxide (Al2O3) into aluminium metal (Al) and Oxygen (O2). In this process, aluminium oxide is molten (liquid state) so that ions can move to complete the electricity circuit.

Al2O3 (l) ---> Al (l) + O2 (g)

Balance the equation:

2Al2O3 (l) ---> 4Al (l) + 3O2 (g)

9. For each reaction listed, identify the proton donor (or acid) and the proton acceptor(or base).
Talja [164]

Answer:

Explanation:

conjugate acid, based on Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, is a chemical compound that is formed by the reception of a proton by a base

a. CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇌ H₃0⁺ + CH₃C00-

Acid <> CH₃COOH

Base <> H₂O

Conjugate acid <> H₃0 +

Conjugate base <>CH₃C00-

b. HCO₃ + H₂O ⇌ H₂CO₃⁻ + OH⁻

Acid <> H₂O

Base <> HCO₃

Conjugate acid <> H₂CO₃⁻

Conjugate base <>OH⁻

C. HNO₃ + SO₄²⁻ ⇌ HSO₄⁻ + NO₃⁻

Acid <>HNO₃

Base <>SO₄²⁻

Conjugate acid <>HSO₄⁻

Conjugate base <>NO₃⁻

A Bronsted acid is reffered to as a proton donor while a Bronsted base is a proton acceptor

This is the balanced reaction equation for the combustion of methane.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Mass basically states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. As such, we must be able to show this in our chemical reaction equations.

If you look at the equation above, you'll see an arrow that separates the reaction equation into two parts. This represents the direction of the reaction.

To the left of the arrow, we have our reactants.

To the right of the arrow, we have our products.

The quantity of each individual element in the left must equal the quantity of each individual element in the right.

So if you look below, you'll see the unbalanced equation, and I'll try to explain how to balance the reaction.

C

H

4

+  

O

2

 

→

 

C

O

2

+  

H

O

Our reactants in this equation are  

C

H

4

and  

O

2

.

Our next step is to break these down into individual atoms.

We have:

1 C atom, 4 H atoms & 2 O atoms.

If you're confused by this, look to see the little number to the bottom right of each element, the subscript, and it tells you how many of each atom are in the molecule. Make sense?

Now we look to the other side of the equation.

Here we see our products are  

C

O

2

+  

H

2

O

Again, we break these down into individual atoms again.

We have:

1 C atom, 2 H atom, 3 O atom

How many atoms are in 1.2x10^5 moles of neon?​
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

7.224 × 10^28 atoms

Explanation:

The number of moles contained in a substance (n) can be calculated from this expression:

nA = n × 6.02 × 10^23 atoms

Where;

nA = number of atoms of substance

n = number of moles of substance

Avagadro's number or constant = 6.02 × 10^23 atoms

Using nA = n × 6.02 × 10^23 atoms

In this question, there are 1.2 x 10^5 moles of neon (N). The number of atoms (nA) is as follows:

nA of neon = 1.2 x 10^5 × 6.02 × 10^23

nA = 7.224 × 10^ (5 + 23)

nA = 7.224 × 10^28 atoms

The number of neon atoms in 1.2 x 10^5 is 7.224 × 10^28 atoms.
