Answer:

407pm is the edge length of the cubic unit cell

Explanation:

In a Face-centered cubic unit you can use Pythagoras theorem to relate edge length with atomic radius (As you can see in the picture), thus:

e²+e² = (4r)²

2e² = 16r²

e = √8 r

If the atomic radius of the atom is 144pm:

e = √8 ×144pm

e = 407ppm

407pm is the edge length of the cubic unit cell

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The order of reactivity of metals is as follows, Potassium > Sodium > Lithium > Calcium > Magnesium > Aluminium > Zinc > Iron > Copper > Silver > Gold.

Explanation:

The reactivity of elements (metals) towards water decreases towards the right in a period. It also increases down the group. But zinc is more reactive towards water than iron. Hence the correct order is:

Iron<Zinc<Magnesium<Sodium

When the following aqueous solutions are mixed together, a precipitate forms. Balance the net ionic equation in standard form fo

rewona [7]

Answer:

For (a): The balanced net ionic equation is $2Ag^{+}(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Ag_2S(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 4

For (b): The balanced net ionic equation is $Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 4

For (c): The balanced net ionic equation is $Ca^{2+}(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaCO_3(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is

For (d): The balanced net ionic equation is $Ba^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Ba(OH)_2(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 4

For (e): The balanced net ionic equation is $Ag^{+}(aq)+Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow AgCl(s)$ and the sum of coefficients is 3

Explanation:

Net ionic equation is defined as the equations in which spectator ions are not included.

Spectator ions are the ones that are present equally on the reactant and product sides. They do not participate in the reaction.

For (a): Sodium sulfide and silver nitrate

The balanced molecular equation is:

$Na_2S(aq)+2AgNO_3(aq)\rightarrow 2NaNO_3(aq)+Ag_2S(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)+2Ag^+(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+Ag_2S(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$2Ag^{+}(aq)+S^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Ag_2S(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [2 + 1 + 1] = 4

For (b): Lead(II) nitrate and sodium chloride

The balanced molecular equation is:

$2NaCl(aq)+Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2NaNO_3(aq)+PbCl_2(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)+Pb^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+PbCl_2(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [2 + 1 + 1] = 4

For (c): Calcium nitrate and potassium carbonate

The balanced molecular equation is:

$K_2CO_3(aq)+Ca(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2KNO_3(aq)+CaCO_3(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2K^{+}(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq)+Ca^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2K^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+CaCO_3(s)$

As potassium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$Ca^{2+}(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaCO_3(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [1 + 1 + 1] = 3

For (d): Barium nitrate and sodium hydroxide

The balanced molecular equation is:

$2NaOH(aq)+Ba(NO_3)_2(aq)\rightarrow 2NaNO_3(aq)+Ba(OH)_2(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)+Ba^{2+}(aq)+2NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Na^+(aq)+2NO_3^-(aq)+Ba(OH)_2(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions

The net ionic equation follows:

$Ba^{2+}(aq)+2OH^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Ba(OH)_2(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [2 + 1 + 1] = 4

For (e): Silver nitrate and sodium chloride

The balanced molecular equation is:

$NaCl(aq)+AgNO_3(aq)\rightarrow NaNO_3(aq)+AgCl(s)$

The complete ionic equation follows:

$Na^{+}(aq)+Cl^{-}(aq)+Ag^{+}(aq)+NO_3^{-}(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq)+NO_3^-(aq)+AgCl(s)$

As sodium and nitrate ions are present on both sides of the reaction. Thus, they are considered spectator ions.

The net ionic equation follows:

$Ag^{+}(aq)+Cl^{-}(aq)\rightarrow AgCl(s)$

Sum of the coefficients = [1 + 1 + 1] = 3

HELP WITH THIS ASAP PLEASE!!! What is the mass in grams of 8.42 x 10^22 atoms of sulfur?

V125BC [204]

Answer:

Answer:

see explanation and punch in the numbers yourself ( will be better for your test)

Explanation:

If you are given atoms you need to divide by Avogadro's number 6.022x10^23

then you will have moles of sulfur-- once you have moles multiply by the molar mass of sulfur to go from moles to grams

mm of sulfur is 32 g/mol
