Write the overall, balanced molecular equation and indicate which element is oxidized and which is reduced for the following rea
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Cd(s) + AgNO₃(aq)  → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Ag(s)

Oxidized: Cd

Reduced: Ag

Explanation:

Cd(s) + AgNO₃(aq)  → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Ag(s)

Cd → Cd²⁺  +  2e⁻      Half reaction oxidation

1e⁻ + Ag⁺ → Ag           Half reaction reduction

Ag changed oxidation number from +1 to 0

Cd changed oxidation number from 0 to +2

Let's ballance the electrons

( Cd → Cd²⁺  +  2e⁻ ) .1

( 1e⁻ + Ag⁺ → Ag ) .2

Cd + 2e⁻ + 2Ag⁺  → 2Ag +  Cd²⁺  +  2e⁻

Finally the ballance equation is:

Cd(s) + 2AgNO₃(aq)  → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + 2Ag(s)

an atom of gallium has 31 proton and a mass number of 70 what is the atomic number for an atom of gallium
padilas [110]

Hello!

Atomic Number, is the number where the atom lays on the perodic table and can be found through the number of protons. Meaning that gallium has an atomic number of 31 !

Atomic weight, which is equal to 70 in this case, can be found by subtracting the atomic number from that total to find the remaining number of neutrons that make up the mass. So gallium has 31 protons and 39 protons.


Hope this helps answer your question.

What is the concentration of 10.00 mL of HBr if it takes 16.73 mL of a 0.253 M LiOH solution to neutralize it?
Leni [432]
First. let's write the reaction formula: HBr +LiOH ----> LiBr + H₂O

let's get the moles of LiOH first

moles= Molarity x Liters

moles= 0.253 M x 0.01673 Liter= 0.00423 moles LiOH

using the balanced equation, you can see that 1 mol LiOH is equal to 1 mol HBr. so:

0.00423 mol LiOH = 0.00423 mol HBr

now let's find the concentration

molarity= mol/ Liters

0.00423 mol/ 0.01000 Liters= 0.423 M

Match the following
irina1246 [14]

The order would be coefficient, law of conservation of mass, products, and reactants respectively.

<h3>Word matching</h3>

The number written in front of a chemical symbol in an equation is called a coefficient.

The total mass of a system being unchanged is known as the law of conservation of mass

The substances made in chemical reactions are called products.

The starting materials in chemical reactions are called reactants.
