Answer:

35.578g or 36g if you round

Explanation:

Q=mc ∆∅ where ∅ is temperature difference

1160= m x 1.716 x (42-23)

m = 1160/ 1.716 x19

m=35.578g

m = 36g to nearest whole number

kondor19780726 [428]

Explanation:

It is known that 1 gram contains 1000 milligrams. And, mathematically we can represent it as follows.

             \frac{1 g}{1000 mg} or \frac{1000 mg}{1 g}

So, when we have to convert grams into milligrams then we simply multiply the digit with 1000. And, if we have to convert a digit from milligrams to grams then we simply divide it by 1000.

write a balanced chemical equation for each single replacement reaction that takes place in aqueous solution. write no reaction
Illusion [34]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Write a balanced chemical equation for each single replacement reaction that takes place in aqueous solution. write no reaction if a reaction does not occur

1.) Zn + PbCl₂

2.) Cu + Fe(NO₃)₂

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The reaction does occur.

<u>For 2:</u> The reaction does not occur.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element.

The reactivity of metal is determined by a series known as reactivity series. The metals lying above in the series are more reactive than the metals which lie below in the series.

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

For the given options:

  • <u>For 1:</u>

Zinc is more reactive than lead as it lies above in the series. So, it will displace lead from its chemical equation.

The chemical equation for the reaction of zinc and lead chloride follows:

Zn+PbCl_2\rightarrow ZnCl_2+Pb

  • <u>For 2:</u>

Copper is less reactive than iron as it lies below in the series. So, it will not displace iron from its chemical equation.

The chemical equation for the reaction of copper and iron (II) nitrate follows:

Cu+Fe(NO_3)_2\rightarrow \text{No reaction}

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

The correct answer is: <em>They each partially describe the bonding in a molecule.</em>

Explanation:

Some chemical molecules cannot be described completely by using only one Lewis structure. In these cases, we can describe the molecule by drawing 2 or more Lewis structures, and the structures are called <u>resonance structures</u>. The overall molecular structure is explained by all the resonance structures together. So, they each describe the bonding in the molecule only partially.

One difference between strong bases and weak bases is 1. strong bases can neutralize more acid than weak bases. 2. strong bases
Tema [17]
One difference between strong bases and weak bases is that a strong bases dissociate completely while weak bases do not. A strong base is a compound that completely ionizes into metal and hydroxide ions when in a solution, on the other hand weak bases only partially ionizes to metal and hydroxide ions in solution. An example of a weak base is ammonia and an example of a strong base is sodium hydroxide.
