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

Advertising claims sometimes state that adding something mechanical to a car's engine will allow it to recover 100 percent of th

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

second law of thermodynamics.

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics deals with interconversion of energy from one form to another. Although energy can be converted from one form to another, this conversion is never 100% efficient because energy is lost in certain ways such as through heat. In a combustion engine, it is not possible to recover the energy from the gasoline 100% since energy must be lost along the way via such means as heat losses. Hence I will be skeptical about such an advert.

How does the tilt of earth affect the climate?

masha68 [24]

The tilt of the earth provides the earth with seasons. As the earth revolved around the sun different portions (northern or Southern Hemisphere) is exposed more directly to the suns radiation, thus it is hotter in those regions. (Why the United States experiences winter in December but Australia experience summer in December.)

Lithium and nitrogen react in a combination reaction to produce lithium nitride: 6Li(s) + N2(g) → 2Li3N(s) How many moles of lit

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

12.5 g of Li are needed in order toproduce 0.60 moles of Li₃N

Explanation:

The reaction is:

6Li(s) + N₂(g) → 2Li₃N(s)

If nitrogen is in excess, the lithium is the limiting reactant.

Ratio is 2:6

2 moles of nitride were produced by 6 moles of Li

Then, 0.6 moles of nitride were produced by (0.6 .6)/ 2 = 1.8 moles of Li

Let's convert the moles to mass → 1.8 mol . 6.94 g/ 1mol = 12.5 g of Li

expeople1 [14]

An individual is hospitalized and the initial blood work indicates high levels of $HCO_{3} ^{-}$ in the blood and a pH of 7. 47. This would indicate the individual probably has compensated respiratory acidosis.

A chronic illness usually leads to compensated respiratory acidosis because the kidneys have time to adjust to the delayed onset. Even if the $PCO_{2}$ is elevated in a compensated respiratory acidosis, the pH is within the usual range.

The kidneys counteract a respiratory acidosis by increasing the amount of $HCO_{3}$ that tubular cells reabsorb from the tubular fluid, the amount of $H^{+}$ that collecting duct cells secrete while also producing $HCO_{3}$ , and the amount of $NH_{3}$ buffer that is formed through ammoniagenesis.

Respiratory acidosis is frequently brought on by hypoventilation as a result of: breathing depression , paralysis of the respiratory muscles, diseases of the chest wall , abnormalities of the lung parenchyma and abdominal squeezing.
