In a metal, individual atoms lose electrons to become positive_______

Chemistry

vitfil [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

In a metal, individual atoms lose electrons to become positive "ions."

Explanation:

The electrically charged particles are called as the ions. When the atoms lose or can gain electrons these charged particles are formed. When the atoms start losing electron so as to become positive ion are the metals, and the negative ions are formed by the non-metals. A force called electrostatic force acts between the oppositely charged ions which is known as the ionic bond. The metals not exactly lose electrons quickly to become stable, in case of the ionic bond formation they lose electrons.

Calculate the mass of carbon dioxide produced from complete combustion of 16.6 g of octane, C8H18, in the following reaction. C8
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

51.2g of CO2

Explanation:

The first step is to balance the reaction equation as shown in the solution attached. Without balancing the reaction equation, one can never obtain the correct answer! Then obtain the masses of octane reacted and carbon dioxide produced from the stoichiometric equation. After that, we now compare it with what is given as shown in the image attached.

For the balanced equation shown below, how many moles of o2 will react with 0.3020 moles of co2? 2c2h5oh + 6o2 → 4co2 + 6h2o que
MariettaO [177]
The balanced reaction for combustion is as follows ;
2C₂H₅OH + 6O₂ ---> 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
the stoichiometry of C₂H₅OH to O₂ is 2:6
that means 2 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with 6 mol of O₂.
when 1 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with 6/2 mol of O₂,
then 0.3020 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with - 6/2 x 0.3020
therefore number of O₂ moles reacted = 0.91 mol

Why is a quantitative observation more useful than a non- quantitative one? Which of the following are quantitative?
daser333 [38]
A quantitative observation is not necessarily more useful than a non-quantitative one. However, quantitative observations do allow one to find trends.

(a), the sun rising is a non-quantitative observation.

(b), knowledge of the numerical relationship between the weight on the Moon and on Earth, is a quantitative observation.

(c), watching ice float on water does not involve a measurement; therefore, it must be a qualitative observation.

(d) the fact that we know that the water pump won’t work for depths more than 34 feet makes it quantitative. Again, seeing numbers is a giveaway that it’s a quantitative <span>observation. Quantitative is where you deal with numbers.</span>
