5 0

1.Start with the number of grams of each element, given in the problem.

2.Convert the mass of each element to moles using the molar mass from the periodic table.

3.Divide each mole value by the smallest number of moles calculated.

4.Round to the nearest whole number. This is the mole ratio of the elements and is.

Can Hydrocyanic acid be a Lewis Acid? What about a Lewis Base?
FinnZ [79.3K]

HCN is a Bronsted acid; it can dissociate into H+ and CN-. And H+ is a Lewis acid because it accepts election pairs. ... In order for H+ and CN- to be formed, Hydrogen in HCN donates its electrons to Carbon. So in this sense, Hydrogen is the lewis base and Carbon is the lewis acid.

Two Balloons one filled with hydrogen gas and second filled with neon gas. what gas should be used in an experiement to identify
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

Oxygen

Explanation:

If two balloons are filled with hydrogen gas and helium gas respectively, then we want to identify what gas is in each balloon, we have to do so by exposing the both balloons to flame in an oxygen atmosphere.

Hydrogen combines with oxygen in the presence of a flame with quite a loud sound and the flame is sustained but when a flame is brought near helium gas in a balloon, the gas will only make a little sound when exposed to the flame and extinguish the flame.

The reason for the explosion of the gas in the hydrogen balloon is that combustion of hydrogen gas is exothermic. The heating up of surrounding air molecules leads to a sudden explosion.

However, the helium balloon makes a little sound when the balloon is ruptured releasing helium gas which extinguishes the flame.

Which total mass is the smallest?
andreev551 [17]
The mass of electrons, protons, and neutrons:
electrons 9.10938291*10^-31 kg
protons 1.67262178*10^-27 kg
neutrons 1.6749*10^-27 kg
the mass of electrons is way smaller than both, the mass of protons and neutrons
therefore, 1) the mass of 2 electrons is the smallest
