C.

Protons is 8 so the atomic number will be 8.

Number of neutrons= atomic mass - atomic number

16-8 = 8.

Which of the following is the correctly balanced chemical equation for the reaction of Ca(OH)2 and HNO3?
sattari [20]

Explanation:

The reaction between calcium hydroxide and nitric acid is as follows.

  Ca(OH)_{2} + HNO_{3} \rightarrow Ca(NO_{3})_{2} + H_{2}O

Number of reactant atoms are as follows.

  • Ca = 1
  • O = 4
  • H = 3
  • N = 1

Number of product atoms are as follows.

  • Ca = 1
  • O = 4
  • H = 2
  • N = 3

To balance the given chemical equation, multiply HNO_{3} by 2 on reactant side and multiply H_{2}O by 2 on the product side.

Therefore, the balanced chemical equation will be as follows.

    Ca(OH)_{2} + 2HNO_{3} \rightarrow Ca(NO_{3})_{2} + 2H_{2}O

A chemistry student needs 60.0 g of 2-ethyltoluene for an experiment. He has available 1.5 kg of a 15.3% w/w solution of 2 ethyl
Mila [183]

Answer:

392 g

Explanation:

The given concentration tells us that<em> in 100 g of solution, there would be 15.3 g of 2-ethyltoluene</em>.

With that in mind we can<u> calculate how many grams of solution would contain 60.0 g of 2-ethyltoluene</u>:

  • Mass of solution * 15.3 / 100 = 60.0 g 2-ethyltoluene
  • Mass of solution = 392 g

Brut [27]

Answer:Heat is a type of ENERGY. When absorbed by a substance, heat causes inter-particle bonds to weaken and break which leads to a change of state (solid to liquid for example). Heat causing a phase change is NOT sufficient to cause an increase in temperature.
