1. An oxide of chromium is found to have the following % composition: 68.4% Cr

Chemistry
1 answer:
abruzzese [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Empirical formula is Cr₂O₃.

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of Cr = 68.4%

Percentage of O = 31.6%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of Cr = 68.4 / 52 = 1.3 2

Number of gram atoms of O = 31.6 / 16 = 1.98

Atomic ratio:

                            Cr               :         O

                           1.32/1.32     :       1.98/1.32

                               1              :        1.5

Cr : O = 1 :  1.5

Cr : O = 2(1 : 1.5)

Empirical formula is Cr₂O₃.

Write a balanced equation for the reaction between copper metal and nitric acid to produce copper II nitrate, nitrogen dioxide,
almond37 [142]

Nitric acid basically reacts with copper as per to the reaction given 4 HNO3(l) + Cu(s) -----> Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2 NO2(g) + 2 H2O(l).

<h3>What is a balanced reaction?</h3>

A balanced reaction includes the same number of elements on both sides of the equation.

In a chemical reaction, the stoichiometric coefficient is the number written in front of atoms, ions, and molecules to balance the number of each element between the reactant and product sides of the equation.

The balanced reaction for reaction between copper metal and nitric acid to produce copper II nitrate, nitrogen dioxide, and water will be as follows:

4HNO_3(l)+Cu(s)----- > Cu(NO_3)_2(aq)+2NO_2+2H_2O

Thus, the above mentioned is the balanced reaction for the given scenario.

Which of these are a bronsted acid, a bronsted base or are both the bronsted acid and the bronsted base? 
UNO [17]
We can classify the ion molecules as follows:

PO4^3-  = Bronsted Base
ClO2- = Bronsted Base
NH4+ = Bronsted Acid
HCO3- = Both
H2PO4- = Both

For a Bronsted-Lowry acid and bases, an acid is a proton (hydrogen ion) donor. A base is a proton (hydrogen ion) acceptor. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Why will liquids evaporate even at room temperature?
mr Goodwill [35]
<h2>It can happen when liquids are cold or when they are warm. ... It turns out that all liquids can evaporate at room temperature and normal air pressure. Evaporation happens when atoms or molecules escape from the liquid and turn into a vapor. Not all of the molecules in a liquid have the same energy.</h2>
