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

How can the conductivity of a salt solution be decreased?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

B. Add more water to decrease the concentration.

Explanation:

If we add more water to the solution, the concentration is decreased and like wise the conductivity of the solution.

  • Concentration is the amount of solute in a solution.
  • Conductivity deals with the ability of a solution to allow the passage of current.

Concentration and conductivity are directly proportional to one another. The higher the concentration, the higher the conductivity and vice versa.

  • Adding more water increases the amount of solvent and the concentration reduces.

When you count up the electrons in a Lewis Structure, do double and triple bonds count as 4 or 6 electrons?
natima [27]

Answer:

Double=4 and triple=6

Explanation:

This is because double bonds are two pairs of electrons are shared between atoms and triple bonds are three pairs, and one pair of electrons is 2, so 2 x 2=4 and 2 x 3=6.

The density of water is 1.00g/cm3. Express this density in lb/m3​
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:  2205 lb/m^3

Explanation:  

  • 1g = 0.002205lb
  • 1cm^3 = 1x10^-6m^3

Convert:  (1g/cm^3)*(0.002205lb/g)*(1cm^3/1x10^-6m^3) = 2205 lb/m^3

How many major reservoirs does carbon move between?<br> A. 3<br> B. 4<br> C. 5<br> D. 2
Irina-Kira [14]
<span>Carbon can also bond with other four atoms because of its outer shell (valence shell) that has four electrons. This is the reason why organic molecules can be so large because of this bonding. Suppose you have a compound of CCl4. You know that chlorine can only share 1 electron because 7 of its electrons are filled. Also, in carbon, it can only share 4 electrons because 4 of it are already filled. That is why carbon needs four chlorine to form CCl4. The answer is letter <u>B.</u></span>
