Answer:

Bronsted lowry base = Proton acceptor = H2O

Bronsted lowry acid = Proton donor = HF-

Explanation:

The equation is given as;

HF-(aq) + H2O(l) --> F-(aq) + H3O(aq)

A bronsted lowry base is any specie that can accept hydrogen ion (proton) from another molecule.

Basically a bronsted lowry base is a proton acceptor while a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor.

In the reaction above, upon comparing both the reactants and products;

Bronsted lowry base = Proton acceptor = H2O

Bronsted lowry acid = Proton donor = HF-

A certain atom has a nucleus containing six protons and eight neutrons and has six electrons orbiting the nucleus

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The answer is a carbon isotope.

Explanation:

Carbon has 6 protons and electrons so the atom is neutral.

However it is a carbon isotope because it has more neutrons than protons so be aware of that

Write a complete, balanced equation for the following reactions:

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Solution given:

e) The heating of sodium carbonate to produces sodium oxide and carbon dioxide

Solution given:

Balanced chemical equation:

$\boxed{\bold{\green{Na_{2}CO_{2} +heat \rightarrow Na_{2}O +CO_{2}}}}$

when sodium carbonate is heated it decomposed and form sodium oxide and carbon dioxide

f) chromium (III) hydroxide plus sulfuric acid

Balanced chemical equation:

$\boxed{\bold{\green{2Cr(OH)_{3}+ 3H_{2}SO_{4} → Cr_{2}(SO_{4})_{3} + 6H_{2}O}}}$

When chromium (III) hydroxide react with sulfuric acid double displacement takes place and forms produce chromium(III) sulfate and water.

g) aluminum metal plus chlorine gas

$\boxed{\bold{\green{2Al(s) + 3Cl_2(g) \rightarrow 2AlCl_2 }}}$

When aluminum metal is added to chlorine gas Combination reaction takes place and forms aluminum chloride.

If you were helping a friend do stoichiometry problems, what would you tell them about how they might use subscripts and coeffic

Jet001 [13]

Im not sure if this will help but... your subscripts in a balanced equation are used to calculate the molar mass of the compound. And your coefficients are used to get the ratios. so for example we have this balanced equation
Be3N2 + 6H2O= 3Be(OH)2 + 2NH3 and you have to find the molar mass of 6h2o, you need to multiply the subscript by the atomic mass and then add them together to get the overall molar mass. * 2(1.01) + 16.00= 18.02 g/mol
and if a question wants to know the limiting or excess regent you would use the coefficients to find out the ratio between the compounds.
