Answer;

(3) Substance A is an element and substance Z is a compound.

Explanation;

-A compound is a substance formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically bonded together, such as water, carbon dioxide, methane, etc while an element is a pure chemical substance made of same type of atoms, such includes, oxygen, potassium, hydrogen, carbon, etc.

- Compounds can be broken down or decomposed into simpler substances: elements cannot be broken down chemically into simpler substances .

The answer is (3) Substance A is an element and Z is a compound. The chemical reaction can only break the chemical bond but can not change the atom. So A will is an element.

How do you find the volume of a liquid
mart [117]
Today they will practice measuring different liquids. They will use a container called a graduated cylinder to measure liquids. Graduated cylinders have numbers on the side that help you determine the volume. Volume is measured in units called liters or fractions of liters called milliliters (ml).

Complete and balance the following redox equation using the set of smallest whole– number coefficients. Now sum the coefficients
Elena L [17]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation in a acidic solution is,

BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)

The sum of the coefficients is, 17

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in acidic solution are :

First we have to write into the two half-reactions.

Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.

Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.

If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the less number of oxygen are present.

If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydrogen ion (H^+) at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.

Now balance the charge.

The given chemical reaction is,

BrO_3^-(aq)+Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+Sb^{5+}(aq)

The oxidation-reduction half reaction will be :

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-

  • First balance the main element in the reaction.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-

  • Now balance oxygen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

  • Now balance hydrogen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^+\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

  • Now balance the charge.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}+2e^-

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

The charges are not balanced. Now multiplying oxidation reaction by 3 and then adding both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation : 3Sb^{3+}\rightarrow 3Sb^{5+}+6e^-

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

The balanced chemical equation in acidic medium will be,

BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)

The sum of the coefficients = 1 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 3

The sum of the coefficients = 17

What is the mass of 0.100 mole of neon? (Watch sf’s)
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter D. 2.02 g

Explanation:

Data

moles of Ne = 0.100

atomic mass of Neon = 20.18 g

Process

1.- Use proportions to find the answer

                   20.18 g of Ne ------------------  1 mol of Ne

                        x                 ------------------  0.1 moles

                        x = (0.1 x 20.18)/1

                        x = 2.018

2.- Consider the significant figures

      0.100 has three significant figures so the answer must be  2.02 g
