Answer:

C. CaCO₃  

Explanation:

One formula unit contains the elements calcium, carbon, and oxygen. Start by writing the symbol of the elements:

CaCO

We indicate the number of atoms of each element by writing the number as a subscript following the symbol.

One formula unit contains one atom of Ca, one of C, and three of O, so the formula becomes

Ca₁C₁O₃

Finally, we do not write one as a subscript in a formula. If there is no subscript, we automatically assume that it is one. Thus, the correct formula is

CaCO₃

How many moles are in 25 g KMnO4
Ronch [10]

Answer:

0.158 moles KMnO4

Explanation:

According to the Periodic Table,

K = 39.10 g/mol

Mn = 54.94 g/mol

O = 16.00 g/mol

KMnO4 = 39.10 g/mol + 54.94 g/mol + 4(16.00 g/mol) = 158.04 g/mol

25.0 grams KMnO4              1 mole

-----------------------------  x --------------------------  = 0.158 moles KMnO4

                                          158.04 grams

drek231 [11]

Answer:

Weight = 98 kg.m/s^2

= 98 N.

Explanation:

Weight of an object is defined as the product of mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity acting on the object. Its unit is Newton which is denoted as N and is also equivalent to kg.m/s^2.

Mass of the object = 10 kg

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Weight = m*g

= 10 kg * 9.8 m/s^2

= 98 kg.m/s^2

= 98 N

Please help I’ll brainleist you
NARA [144]

Answer:

1. They can tell that a reaction has taken place if there is formation of gas bubbles in the test tube as well as if the metal dissolves in the acid solution

2. To determine which metal is more reactive, they would compare how fast each reaction occurs. The most reactive metal would have the fastest rate of reaction with a vigorous formation of bubbles, whereas the least reactive metal will have the slowest rate of reaction.

Explanation:

1. Metal which are more electropositive than hydrogen displace hydrogen from dilute acids with the formation of the salt of the metal and evolution of hydrogen gas. Therefore, the formation of gas bubbles in the test tube indicates that a reaction is taking place.

2. The rate of formation of the gas bubbles as well as the time taken for the reaction to come to a completion by the dissolution of the metal in the acid indicates which metal is more reactive. The most reactive metal would have the fastest rate of reaction with a vigorous formation of bubbles, whereas the least reactive metal will have the slowest rate of reaction.

However, the rate of the reaction is also affected by the concentration of the acid used. The higher the concentration of the acid, the faster the reaction rate.
