Answer:

2 will be the number

Explanation:

To balance a chemical reaction like this one, we have to know the priority order of balance.

In general, the priority order for balancing is:

Metals > Non metals > Hydrogen > Oxygen

Following this order, we can balance almost any chemical reaction we have:

Now, using this priority, let's balance the equation.

The metals here are Fe and Na, so let's check both of them in both sides of the reaction.

In the case of Fe, we have the same number of atoms in reactants (1) and in the product, so, in theory, we do not need to balance this metal.

In the case of Na, we can see that in reactants we have 2 atoms, but in the products we have 1, so we need to put a number 2 next to the Na in the product. It will keep like this: 2NaCl. This 2, also alter the number of Cl, but we will see that later. We have the metals balanced.

Let's see the non metals which are Carbon and chloride. In the case of C, we have in both sides the same number of C (1). In the case of Chloride, we also have the same number on both sides (2), because we put a 2 in products to balance the Sodium, and this balance the chloride too. So non metals are balanced.

We do not have hydrogens, so, let's see the oxygen. We have 3 in reactants and 3 in products, so they are already balanced, so we do not need to balance.

The balanced equation will be:

FeCl₂ + Na₂CO₃ -----> FeCO₃ + 2NaCl

Therefore the coefficient of NaCl is 2.

calculate the speed of an electron if its de broglie wavelength is twice its displacement in one second
valkas [14]

Answer:

The speed of an electron is 0.01908 m/s.

Explanation:

De-Broglie wavelength is given by:

\lambda=\frac{h}{mv}

where,  \lambda = wavelength of a particle

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

m = mass of particle

v = velocity of the particle

Velocity of an electron = v

Mass of an electron = 9.1\times 10^{-31}kg

Wavelength of electron is twice the displacement in seconds which is velocity of an electron.

Then.wavelength of an electron = \lambda =2v

\lambda =2v=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}Js}{9.1\times 10^{-31}kg\times v}

v = 0.01908 m/s

The speed of an electron is 0.01908 m/s.

Compare and contrast the positive and negative effects that result from the use of the Haber process.
Luda [366]

Answer: Positive effects: mass production of fertilizers, alkaline cleansers, refrigerant gas, dyes, explosives

Negative effects: heath problems, negative effects on soil organisms and soil organic matter,  imbalances to the nitrogen cycle, high fossil fuel energy inputs, production of deadly weapons

Explanation:

The Haber process (also called Haber Bosch process) is used to produce ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen under the high pressure. Basically, it's an artificial nitrogen fixation process. This method has both positive and negative effects on modern society.

Positive sides: ammonia is mainly used for mass production of fertilizer, which allows more food for everyone. It can be used for production of alkaline cleansers, refrigerant gas, dyes and explosives. Ammonia is also used in production of synthetic polymers, due to its role in the manufacturing of cyanide.

Negative sides: ammonia is a toxic gas, it can irritate eyes and lungs. Because of that, the excess nitrogen in soil and water coming from synthetic fertilizers can cause health problems. It is harmful for humans and animals, but it can also be harmful for plants. Environmental factors are also important. Because of the mass fixation, there is imbalance in the earth’s nitrogen cycle. Also, fossil fuels are used as a source of power for machinery in Haber's process, which increases emissions into the atmosphere. And, at least ammonia is a major component of weapons including great number of bombs.
