Answer:
1Au(s) + 3HNO₃(aq) + 4HCl(aq) → 1HAuCl₄(aq) + 3NO₂(g) + 3H₂O(l)
The function of HCl is oxidize the gold.
Explanation:
It is possible to balance the reaction seeing each compound as a variable and take an equation for each atom, thus:
Au(s) + HNO₃(aq) + HCl(aq) → HAuCl₄(aq) + NO₂(g) + H₂O(l)
a + b + c = d + e + f
Au: a = d <em>(1)</em>
H: b + c = d + 2f <em>(2)</em>
N: b = e <em>(3)</em>
O: 3b = 2e + f <em>(4)</em>
Cl = c = 4d <em>(5)</em>
Assuming <em><u>a = 1</u></em>:
<em><u>1 = d</u></em> <em>(1)</em>
<u><em>c = 4</em></u> <em>(5)</em>
b + 3 = 2f <em>(2)</em>
3b = 2e + f <em>(4)</em>
As b = e:
b = f <em>(4)</em>
<em><u>f = 3</u></em>; <em><u>b = 3</u></em>; <em><u>e = 3</u></em>
Thus, balanced reaction is:
1Au(s) + 3HNO₃(aq) + 4HCl(aq) → 1HAuCl₄(aq) + 3NO₂(g) + 3H₂O(l)
<em>The function of HCl is oxidize the gold</em> that before reaction is Au⁰ and afte ris Au⁺³

When an ionic compound dissolves, the ions are surrounded by water molecules, separate and move into the solutions. The ions exist in the same valence state as they did in the ionic compound.
The ions present due to the dissolution of nickel chloride will be Ni⁺² and Cl⁻.
The ions already present due to water will be H⁺ and OH⁻.
In most atoms, electrons occupy a zone exterior to the nucleus.
