3Zn + 8HNO3 ---> 3Zn(NO3)2 + 4H2O + 2NO IF IT IS COLD AND DILUT NITRIC ACID .
IF IT IS HOT AND CONCENTRATED THEN:
Zn+ 4HNO3 ---> Zn(NO3)2 +2H2O +2NO2
Answer: the ability to be dissolved, especially in water.
Explanation: I think the answer you've picked is right

Answer:
D.) Mg(NO₃)₂
Explanation:
Since magnesium (Mg) is a metal and nitrate (NO₃) is a polyatomic anion, they would combine to form an ionic compound. Magnesium would form the cation Mg²⁺ because it generally has 2 valence electrons. Nitrate always has a -1 charge.
In order for the overall compound to be neutral (have a charge of 0), there must be one Mg²⁺ and two NO₃⁻ ions in the compound (+2 + (-1) + (-1) = 0).
Therefore, the formula for the compound formed is Mg(NO₃)₂.
1. carbon lies in the 2nd period where silicon in the third period.
2. carbon is a non metal whereas silicon is a metalloid.
3. there are only 3 isotopes of carbon and 23 isotopes of silicon
4. size of silicon atom is larger
5. silicon is heavier than carbon.
