A) -0.5(9.8)*t^2 = -25(t-2) - 0.5(9.8)(t-2)^2
-4.9t^2 = -25t + 50 - 4.9(t^2-4t+4)
0 = -25t+50+19.6t - 19.6

Fireworks owe their colors to reactions of combustion of the metals present. When Mg and Al burn, they emit a white bright light, whereas iron emits a gold light. Besides metals, oxygen is necesary for the combustion. The decomposition reactions of barium nitrate and potassium chlorate provide this element. At the same time, barium can burn emitting a green light.
(a) Barium nitrate is a <em>salt</em> formed by the <em>cation</em> barium Ba²⁺ and the <em>anion</em> nitrate NO₃⁻. Its formula is Ba(NO₃)₂. Potassium chlorate is a <em>salt</em> formed by the <em>cation</em> potassium K⁺ and the <em>anion</em> chlorate ClO₃⁻. Its formula is KClO₃.
(b) The balanced equation for the decomposition of potassium chloride is:
2KClO₃(s) ⇄ 2KCl(s) + 3O₂(g)
(c) The balanced equation for the decomposition of barium nitrate is:
Ba(NO₃)₂(s) ⇄ BaO(s) + N₂(g) + 3O₂(g)
(d) The balanced equations of metals with oxygen to form metal oxides are:
- 2 Mg(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2 MgO(s)
- 4 Al(s) + 3 O₂(g) ⇄ 2 Al₂O₃(s)
- 4 Fe(s) + 3 O₂(g) ⇄ 2 Fe₂O₃(s)
HCN is a Bronsted acid; it can dissociate into H+ and CN-. And H+ is a Lewis acid because it accepts election pairs. ... In order for H+ and CN- to be formed, Hydrogen in HCN donates its electrons to Carbon. So in this sense, Hydrogen is the lewis base and Carbon is the lewis acid.
The solid compound, K2SO4 contains a cation called K+ and an anion called SO42-. In this case, there are 2 atoms of potassium, 1 atom of sulfur and 4 moles of oxygen. The compound also contains ionic bonds because of the composing non-metals and metal.
