During chemistry, Dan mixes two clear, colorless solution and mixing them produces a yellow precipitate in a clear, colorless fi

nal solution as shown by the chemical equation.
Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2KI(aq) → PbI2(s) + 2KNO3(aq)

Answer : Formation of yellow precipitate is the physical evidence that there has been a chemical reaction.

Explanation :

A chemical reaction happens when 2 or more substances chemically react with each other.

There are 4 evidences indicating that a chemical reaction has occurred which are mentioned below.

1. Change in color : On mixing, the reaction mixture can change color indicating that a chemical change may have occurred.

2. Formation of precipitate : A reaction in which a solid is formed on mixing 2 aqueous solutions is called as precipitation reaction. Here, the formation of solid indicates a chemical change.

ex. AgNO_{3} (aq) + NaCl (aq) \rightarrow AgCl (s) + NaNO_{3} (aq)

In above reaction, on mixing the solutions, a white precipitate of AgCl is formed which indicates a chemical change.

3. Evolution of gas : A chemical change also occurs when a gas is evolved on mixing 2 substances.

ex. 2HCl (aq) + Na_{2}CO_{3} (aq) \rightarrow 2NaCl (aq) + H_{2}O (l) + CO_{2} (g)

In above reaction, CO2 gas is evolved and bubbles can be seen in the form of effervescence.

4. Change in temperature : Certain chemical reactions absorb or evolve heat. When a chemical reaction evolves heat, the temperature of the final reaction mixture increases and when it absorbs heat, the temperature decreases. This increase and decrease in temperature indicates a chemical change.

ex.  HCl (aq) + NaOH (aq) \rightarrow NaCl(aq) + H_{2}O (l)

In above reaction, the final mixture becomes hot as the reaction releases heat. ( Exothermic)

Change in odor also indicates a chemical change.

For the given reaction, a yellow precipitate of PbI2 is getting formed.

Therefore formation of this precipitate is the physical evidence that there has been a chemical reaction.

For the balanced equation shown below, how many moles of o2 will react with 0.3020 moles of co2? 2c2h5oh + 6o2 → 4co2 + 6h2o que
MariettaO [177]
The balanced reaction for combustion is as follows ;
2C₂H₅OH + 6O₂ ---> 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
the stoichiometry of C₂H₅OH to O₂ is 2:6
that means 2 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with 6 mol of O₂.
when 1 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with 6/2 mol of O₂,
then 0.3020 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with - 6/2 x 0.3020
therefore number of O₂ moles reacted = 0.91 mol

The ion p3− has _____ protons and _____ electrons. enter your answers as integers separated by a comma.'
katrin2010 [14]

The symbol P is for phosphorus having atomic number 15. That means it has 15 protons and 15 electrons in its neutral state.

The given symbol P^{3-} has a -3 charge that means it has gained 3 electrons so, the number of electrons in the P^{3-} is: 15+3 = 18. The number of protons will remain same that is the number of protons = 15.

So, the ion P^{3-} has 15 protons and 18 electrons that gives 15-18=-3 charge on the P^{3-} ion.

So, the answer is 15 , 18.
