Answer:
It shows the most reactive to least reactive, so that we can predict whether certain reactions will occur. Any metal can replace any metal below it, but not above it.
Explanation:
Explanation:
The observable visible spectrum of Cr(acac)3 complex is different from that of
[Cr(en)3]Br3 due to strength of bonded ligand in the coordination sphere.
en is a strong field ligand compared to acac thus pairing occurs. In both the complexes
Cr is in +3 state, configuration [Ar] 3d^3. There are 3 unpaired e in Cr(acac)3 whereas 1 unpaired e in [Cr(en)3]Br3 due to pairing.
The charge is neutral.
To find the charge, subtract the number of electrons from the number of protons. Because they are the same, there is no charge.
The reaction of acid, assuming HCl and calcium carbonate always produces a gas. The reaction is as follows:
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2CO3
H2CO3, carbonic acid, is a weak acid that is unstable in water solutions at high concentrations. As such, it decomposes:
H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2
Then,
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
The total ionic equation looks as follows:
2H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Clearly, Cl- is a spectator ion as it is unchanged in the reaction. The net ionic reaction looks as follows:
2 H+(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
