Answer:

The number that should be placed before F₂ is 2

Explanation:

For a chemical reaction to be balanced we need to have the same amount of mass in the reactants and in the products because by the<em> law of conservation of mass</em>, mass cannot be created or destroyed.

We can acomplish this by having the same amount of atoms of each element in the reactant side that in the product side.

For example:

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂0

In this case in the reactants side we have 3 C, 8 H and 10 O, so we have  the same amount in the product side, so the equation is balanced.

In the equation Xe + F₂ → XeF₄ we have 1 Xe in each side, 2 F in the reactant side and 4 F in the product side, so we multiply the 2 F in reactan side to balance the equation.

Xe + 2Fe₂ → XeF₄

There are four F atoms on the products side.

Since two more F atoms are required on the reactant side, you multiply the number of F2 molecules by two.

So 2 should be placed in front of F2

Select the conjugate acid-base pair(s). a) HI, I b) HCHO2, SO4^2- c) CO3^2-, HCI d) PO4^3-, HPO4^2-
Semenov [28]

Answer:

d) PO4^3-, HPO4^2-

Explanation:

Basically, an acid and a base which differs only by the presence or absence of  proton (hydrogen ion) are called a conjugate acid-base pair.

a) HI, I

This is incorrect. For the acid, HI the conjugate base is I⁻ ion.

b) HCHO2, SO4^2-

This is incorrect, there's no relationship between both entities.

c) CO3^2-, HCI

This is incorrect, there's no relationship between both entities.

d) PO4^3-, HPO4^2-

This is correct. The difference between both entities is the Hydrogen ion. This is the conjugate acid-base pair

The force of 75 N must overcome in order to get the truck to start moving. What type of friction must be overcome?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Static Friction.

Explanation:

Friction is the force that resists the relative motion between the surfaces sliding against each other.

Static friction is friction between objects that are not in relative motion with each other.

The coefficient of static friction, typically denoted as  μs,

Static friction arises due to surface roughness( relative term)

The static friction force can be overcome by an applied  maximum force

F max =  μs x N

N= normal force

Any force smaller than F max attempting to slide one surface over the other is opposed by a frictional force of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

Any force larger than F max overcomes the force of static friction and causes sliding to occur.

This maximum force is sometimes called the limiting value also. Here that value is 75 N.

C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) --&gt; 6H2O(g) + 6CO2(g)
vredina [299]
One
Balance the Equation.
This has been done for you or it is given. Anyway this step is finished, but it must always be done.

Two
Find the molar mass of C6H12O6
6C = 6 * 12 = 72
12H = 12*1 = 12
CO = 6 * 16 = 96
Mol Mass = 180 grams / mol

Three
Find the mols of C6H12O6
n = ???
Molar Mass = 180 grams / mol
given mass = 13.2 grams.

n = given mass / molar mass
n = 13.2 / 180
n = 0.07333333 mols.

Four
Find the mols CO2
1 mol C6H12O6 will produce 6 mols CO2
0.0733333 mols will produce x

1/0.073333 = 6/x Cross multiply
x = 0.073333 * 6
x = 0.4399 moles.

Five
Find the volume given the conditions for temperature and pressure are STP conditions.
PV = nRT
R = 0.082057 
n = 0.43999
P = 1 atmosphere
T = 0 + 273 = 273
V = ???
1 * V = 0.43999 * 082057 * 273
V = 10.2 L
Answer: B

Note if you give out Brainly awards I'd sure appreciate one. This was a lot of typing
