Answer:

Answer 'A'

Explanation:

In general, if the Σmolar volumes(g) reactants ≠ Σmolar volumes(g) products, a change in atmospheric pressure will shift the reaction equilibrium. If the pressure is increased, the rxn will shift toward the LOWER molar volume side of the rxn or if the pressure is decreased the rxn will shift toward the HIGHER molar volume side. For the reaction N₂O₄(g) ⇄ 2NO₂(g), Vm(N₂O₄(g)) < Vm(NO₂(g)) so, a decrease in atmospheric pressure would shift rxn toward the NO₂(g) side of the equation increasing the moles of NO₂(g). Also, note that if the Σmolar volumes(g) reactants = Σmolar volumes(g) products, no shift in equilibrium will occur regardless of changes in atmospheric pressure.

What is the ionic equation of Aqueous calcium bromide was mixed with aqueous gold(I) perchlorate, and a crystallized gold(I) bro

Bumek [7]

Answer:- $2AuClO_4(aq) + CaBr_2(aq)\rightarrow 2AuBr(s)+ Ca(ClO_4)_2(aq)$

Explanations:- It's a double replacement reaction where a precipitate of silver(I)bromide is formed. A dpuble replacement reaction in general looks as AB + CD \rightarrow AD + CB

To balance the equation we need to multiply gold compounds on both sides by 2 and the balanced equation is..

$2AuClO_4(aq) + CaBr_2(aq)\rightarrow 2AuBr(s)+ Ca(ClO_4)_2(aq)$

Which of the following provides evidence that supports the continental drift theory? PLEASE HELP 10 POINTS

Tanya [424]

I believe that it is A. If you remember in lesson 03.03 it gave multiple examples of things that support the continental drift theory. One of them was fossils of the same organisms found in different continents.

Balance the following equation:

Firdavs [7]

Answer: a) $2K_2CrO_4+3Na_2SO_3+10HCl\rightarrow 4KCl+3Na_2SO_4+2CrCl_3+5H_2O$

b) 1 mole of $SO_2$ is produced.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The skeletal equation is:

$K_2CrO_4+Na_2SO_3+HCl\rightarrow KCl+Na_2SO_4+CrCl_3 +H_2O$

The balanced equation will be:

$2K_2CrO_4+3Na_2SO_3+10HCl\rightarrow 4KCl+3Na_2SO_4+2CrCl_3+5H_2O$

Thus the coefficients are 2, 3 , 10 , 4 , 3 , 2 and 5.

b) Oxidation: $2I-^-\rightarrow I_2+2e-^-$

Reduction: $SO_4^{2-}+2e^-+4H^+\rightarrow SO_2+2H_2O$

Net reaction: $2I-^-+SO_4^{2-}+4H^+\rightarrow I_2+SO_2+2H_2O$

When 1 mole of $I_2$ is produced, 1 mole of $SO_2$ is produced.

An aluminum ion has a +3 charge. What change did the atom undergo to attain this charge?

lesya692 [45]

When an ion loses electrons, it becomes a positive ion even though it does not lose protons. If there are more protons than electrons in the ion, the ion will have a positive charge.
