SIZIF [17.4K]4 years ago
3 0

A rock's composition is not changed by mechanical weathering. Only the size of the fragments decreases. ... Mechanical weathering breaks rocks down into smaller fragments, and increases the surface area of the over all material. By increasing the surface area, chemical processes may act more easily upon the rock surface.

There are ________ unpaired electrons in the Lewis symbol for a nitride ion.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

There are no unpaired electrons.

Explanation:

There are  no unpaired electrons in the Lewis symbol for a nitride ion({ N }^{ 3- }).The nitride ion has a charge of -3. The negative charge on the Nitride ion indicates a gain in electrons . Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons that is the number of electrons that are in its outer shell .The total number of electrons that the nitride ion has is equal to 5+3 = 8 electrons . Electrons usually appear in pairs and obey the octet rule therefore the nitride ion has four electron pairs no unpaired electrons.

Cr2o2−7(aq)+i−(aq)→cr3+(aq)+io−3(aq) (acidic solution) express your answer as a chemical equation. identify all of the phases in
Rashid [163]
<span>Answer: Nothing is balanced in your final equation: not H, not O, not Cr, not I and your charges aren't either. Start with your 2 half reactions: I- --> IO3- Cr2O72- --> 2 Cr3+ Balance O by adding H2O: I- + 3 H2O --> IO3- Cr2O72- --> 2 Cr3+ + 7H2O Balance H by adding H+: I- + 3 H2O --> IO3- + 6 H+ Cr2O72- + 14 H+ --> 2 Cr3+ + 7H2O Balance charge by adding e-: I- + 3 H2O --> IO3- + 6 H+ + 6 e- Cr2O72- + 14 H+ + 6 e- --> 2 Cr3+ + 7H2O Since the numbers of electrons in your two half reactions are the same, just add them and simplify to give: Cr2O72- + I- + 8 H+ --> IO3- + 2 Cr3+ + 4 H2O</span>
