Hello!

Based on these facts, we should classify Germanium as a Metalloid.

Metalloids are chemical elements with a mixture of properties from metals and non-metals. Although Germanium has a metallic appearance (typical of metals), it doesn't have the conductive properties of metals, but is a semiconductor. The semiconductive properties of Germanium are used in applications like transistors and chips.

Have a nice day!

What is the balanced net precipitation reaction for BaCl2 and KOH?
Dmitrij [34]
BaCl2 reacts with KOH forming KCl which is a salt and Ba(OH)2 which is the precipitate.
The initial UNBALANCED equation expressing this reaction would be:
BaCl2 + KOH .............> KCl + Ba(OH)2
Now, we need to balance this equation:
we have two moles of Cl as reactants and one mole only as product. Therefore, we will multiply the KCl in the product by 2 and the KOH in the reactants by 2.
This will balance the equation as follows:
BaCl2 + 2KOH ......> 2KCl + Ba(OH)2

Noticing this equation, we will find that:
The precipitate was formed due to the combination of the Ba2+ ion with 2 OH- ions as follows:
Ba2+ + OH- ............> Ba(OH)2

Can someone please help me
Alona [7]

Answer:

Potassium iodide increases the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide.

Explanation:

Potassium iodide increases the decomposition rate of hydrogen peroxide because potassium iodide act as a catalyst. A catalyst speed up the process of chemical reaction without reacting with the molecules present in reaction. If the potassium iodide is not present as a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide then the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide takes too much time because the catalyst is absent that speed up the reaction.
