Klio2033 [76]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter d.

Explanation:

Data

                Zn  +  HCl   ⇒  ZnCl₂  +  H₂

- Calculate the Oxidation number of reactants and products

              Zn⁰  +  H⁺¹Cl⁻¹   ⇒  Zn⁺²Cl₂⁻¹  +  H₂⁰

- Determine which elements changed their oxidation numbers

                      Zn⁰     ⇒   Zn⁺²                Zn lost 2e⁻

                     2H⁺¹      ⇒   H₂⁰                H won 2 e⁻

-Interchange the electrons lost and won

                  2( Zn⁰     ⇒   Zn⁺²)

                  2(2H⁺¹      ⇒   H₂⁰)

-Simplify

                  2Zn⁰     ⇒   2Zn⁺²

                  4H⁺¹      ⇒   2H₂⁰

-Substitute the coefficient in the equation

                2Zn  +  4HCl   ⇒  2ZnCl₂  +  2H₂  

             Reactant       Element      Product

                  2                    Zn                2

                  4                     H                 4

                  4                     Cl                 4

- Now the reaction is balanced

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.
  • All atoms of the same element are similar in that they have the same number of protons.
  • Atoms of the same elements may have a different number of electrons or neutrons but will always have the same number of protons.
  • Atoms of the same elements with a different number of neutrons are known as isotopes.
  • When neutral atoms gain or lose electron(s) they form charged atoms known as ions.

You were making a cream based sauce for your pasta and decided to add some freshly canned tomatoes to the sauce. It tasted fine,
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer & explanation:

Canned fruits and vegetables generally have a high acidity and salinity content, in order to prevent the product from spoiling, in addition to enhancing its flavor.

The cream-based sauce started to curdle due to the acidity present in the canned tomatoes.

By lowering the pH of dairy products, a protein in them called casein begins to clot. It is this clotting of the casein that causes the cream-based sauce to curdle.
