Answer:

Ni C03 ---> CO2 + NiO

Explanation:

Ni C03 ---> CO2 + NiO

When heating nickel carbonate at elevated temperatures, 400 ° C for example, decomposes giving as products carbon dioxide and nickel oxide.

Answer the following questions that relate to electrochemical reactions. (a) Under standard conditions at 25˚C, Zn(s) reacts wit

Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.48 V

Explanation:

Zn(s) ------------> Zn^2+(aq) + 2e. Oxidation half equation (-0.76V)

Co^2+(aq) + 2e-----------> Co(s). Reduction half equation (-0.28)

Zn(s) + Co^2+(aq) -------------> Zn^2+(aq) + Co(s) overall redox equation

Zinc is the anode while cobalt is the cathode.

E°cell= E°cathode - E°anode

E°cell= -0.28-(-0.76)= 0.48 V

Water is known as the universal solvent. One reason water makes a good solvent is because it is composed of polar molecules. Wha

Flauer [41]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A water molecule is made up of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Its molecular formula is $H_{2}O$ .

It is known that hydrogen is electropositive in nature whereas oxygen is electronegative in nature. Therefore, oxygen will pull the electron of hydrogen towards itself as a result, there will be formation of partial positive charge on hydrogen and partial negative charge on oxygen atom.

Thus, the water molecule becomes polar. So, we can conclude that water molecule is a polar molecule because water molecules have a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other.
