Answer:
The least whole number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6
Explanation:
The chemical equation above is the reaction between calcium orthophosphate and nitric acid.
To balance a chemical equation, we have to consider law of conservation of matter which states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed.
What this law implies is that, whatever we have at the reactant side must be equal to whatever is obtainable at the product side.
The above equation is
Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + HNO₃ → Ca(NO₃)₂ + H₃PO₄
To balance the equation, we'll have to check the number of atoms at each side and possibly balance the equation with the number of moles.
The balanced equation is
Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6HNO₃ → 3Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2H₃PO₄
From the balanced equation above, we can see that the number of calcium (Ca), Phosphorus (P), Oxygen(O), Nitrogen(N) and hydrogen (H) are balanced at both sides of the equation.
The least number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6
5 plates is the highest amount that can be served
There’s only 5 sandwiches so 7 is automatically ruled out, there’s 14 corn cobs and 5 sandwiches only need 10 so it works out
Answer:
D
Explanation:
The nuclear model of the atom was proposed by Ernest Rutherford.
In his submission, the atom consists of a dense positive nucleus with electrons moving round this nucleus as planets move round the sun. He likened his model to the solar system. The nucleus is at the center of this system just as the sun is at the center of the solar system.
