Answer:

FeCl₃ + 3NaOH → Fe(OH)₃ + 3NaCl

Explanation:

You are given a skeleton equation, or unbalanced equation.

FeCl₃ + NaOH → Fe(OH)₃ + NaCl

Count the number of atoms on each side. If there is 1 atom, the subscript is not written. If the subscript to the right of a bracket, it belongs to each element in the bracket.

Reactants → Products

Fe 1 Fe 1

Cl 3 Cl 1 Not balanced

Na 1 Na 1

O 1 O 3 Not balanced

H 1 H 3 Not balanced

The number of each element must be the same in the reactants and products. We can see that Cl (chlorine), O (oxygen) and H (hydrogen) have different numbers.

Write in coefficients in front of formulas (separated by + sign). Coefficients multiply each subscript (or "1" if not written) in the formula. Recount the atoms until you have equal reactant and product atom numbers.

I see that I need more chlorine in my products. Multiply the formula that has "Cl" by 3.

FeCl₃ + NaOH → Fe(OH)₃ + 3NaCl

Reactants → Products

Fe 1 Fe 1

Cl 3 Cl 3 Cl is balanced now.

Na 1 Na 3 Not balanced

O 1 O 3 Not balanced

H 1 H 3 Not balanced

Fix the "Na" now. Multiply the formula with "Na" on the left by 3.

FeCl₃ + 3NaOH → Fe(OH)₃ + 3NaCl

Reactants → Products

Fe 1 Fe 1

Cl 3 Cl 3

Na 3 Na 3

O 3 O 3

H 3 H 3

Each side has the same number of each element. Therefore, this is balanced now.

Balanced formula:

FeCl₃ + 3NaOH → Fe(OH)₃ + 3NaCl

According of Dalton's law of Partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of the individual vases in the mixture.

Hence;

The for hydrogen collected over water, we have a mixture of hydrogen gas and water vapour.

Total pressure = pressure of hydrogen gas + vapour pressure of water

Pressure of hydrogen gas = Total pressure - vapour pressure of water

Pressure of hydrogen gas = 636 mmHg - 28.3 mmHg

Pressure of hydrogen gas = 607.7 mmHg

What process is used to refine aluminum from its ore bauxite?

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

D. Smelting

Explanation:

Bauxite is the aluminum ore from which alumina, also known as aluminum oxide, Al₂O₃, is produced. Bauxite is extracted from the topsoil regions of some subtropical and tropical regions, and the Bayer process is primarily then used to produce alumina from the bauxite.

Aluminum is produced from the alumina by an aluminum smelting process known as the Hall—Heroult electrolytic process which involves the use of a carbon anode and direct current to produce aluminum by reducing the aluminum oxide

A sample of gas occupies a volume of 27 mL at a temperature of 161K. What is the volume of the temperature if raised to 343K?

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer: The volume is 57.52 mL if the temperature if raised to 343K.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 27 mL, $T_{1}$ = 161 K

$V_{2}$ = ?, $T_{2}$ = 343 K

According to Charles law, at constant pressure the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to temperature.

Formula used is as follows.

$\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}\\\frac{27 mL}{161 K} = \frac{V_{2}}{343 K}\\V_{2} = 57.52 mL$

Thus, we can conclude that volume is 57.52 mL if the temperature if raised to 343K.

Question 2 (1 point)

alisha [4.7K]

To calculate an electron configuration, divide the periodic table into sections to represent the atomic orbitals, the regions where electrons are contained. Groups one and two are the s-block, three through 12 represent the d-block, 13 to 18 are the p-block and the two rows at the bottom are the f-block.

⦁ How are water and minerals transported in vascular plants? Explain in a short paragraph that uses the terms xylem, phloem, and

Lena [83]

Plants have two transport systems to move food, water and minerals through their roots, stems and leaves. These systems use continuous tubes called xylem and phloem, and together they are known as vascular bundles. Thank you for your time and I hope this has helped you. See you next time brainy:)
