Answer:

wax, candlewick, and oxygen

Explanation:

The burning of the candle is both a physical as well as a chemical change. The reactants are the substances or the raw materials that are required for a reaction to the process. In the process of burning a candle, the reactants are the fuel which includes wax and wick, and oxygen which is found in the air. The products found at the end of the reaction are carbon dioxide and water vapor.

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

In this case, you just need to use any acid you want (Like HCl, or H₂SO₄) to do this exercise.

You are given a sample of what you have to do which is:

Acid + metal ------> Salt + hydrogen

As you can see, an acid like the ones I wrote above, have hydrogen atoms, so you should put the hydrogen there. As for the part of salt, you just need to draw the corresponding salt that is formed when the acid reacts with the metal, and write it's name.

Let's do all three equations for you to a better understanding. For all the given examples, I will use HCl as acid, and i will explain one reaction cause the other two reactions happens the same thing, only with a different metal.

1. 2HCl + Zn ------> ZnCl₂ + H₂

As you can see, we just have a displacement reaction where the metal displaces the position of the hydrogen to form the salt and the hydrogen leaves the molecule as a gaseous molecule. Written in words it would be:

Hydrochloric acid + Zinc ----> Zinc chloride + hydrogen

2. 2HCl + Pb -------> PbCl₂ + H₂

Hydrochloric acid + lead ------> Lead (II) chloride + hydrogen

3. 2HCl + Fe -------> FeCl₂ + H₂

Hydrochloric acid + iron ------> Iron (II) chloride + hydrogen

Hope this helps

Explain why igneous rocks do not contain fossils.
natta225 [31]
Fossils can not be formed in igneous rock because before it cooled from the liquid magma state, any renants of fossils would be destroyed and melted... they form in sedimentary because thats where they can be buried and perserved the easiest, metamorphic would destroy them from the pressures and temperatures involved in there formations

Compare an oxygen particle to a water particle. In your answer , include describing how they are different and similar.
Naddik [55]

Answer:

An oxygen molecule consists of two oxygen (o2) atoms bound together and a water molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom (h20). H20 has a higher evaporation temperature than oxygen therefore it stays a liquid at room temperature unlike oxygen. Both have oxygen atoms.

HNO3 is an Arrhenius acid and increases the concentration of what??? when added to water.
sineoko [7]
When nitric acid is added to water, the concentration of hydronium ions would increase since the nitric acid dissociates into ions, the hydronium ions and the nitrate ions. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
