Choose the correct coefficients to balance the following equation: __Zn + __HCl Imported Asset __ZnCl2 + __H2.

Chemistry
1 answer:
N76 [4]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

option b = 1,2,1,1

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Zn + HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Balanced chemical equation:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

There are two atoms of hydrogen one atom of zinc and 2 atoms of chlorine on both side of equation.

The common oxidation state of zinc is +2 while tat of chlorine is -1 that's why two chlorine atoms combine with one atom of zinc to accept two electrons.

Zn⁺²Cl₂²⁻ negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude that's why over all compound is neutral.

While two atoms of hydrogen combine with each other through covalent bond by shearing the electrons.

The oxidation state of zinc is increased from 0 to +2 so it gets oxidized while that of chlorine is -1 to -2 is chlorine gets reduced.

The compound whose molecules have the highest average kinetic energy is?
KIM [24]

Answer:

C)

Explanation:

The warmer the molecules, the higher the average kinetic energy.

"As stated in the kinetic-molecular theory, the temperature of a substance is related to the average kinetic energy of the particles of that substance. When a substance is heated, some of the absorbed energy is stored within the particles, while some of the energy increases the motion of the particles. This is registered as an increase in the temperature of the substance." -lumen learning
