Balance Cr2O3+Mg -->Cr + MgO

Chemistry
1 answer:
fiasKO [112]3 years ago

Balancing means there are equal amount of molecules on each side, both reactant and products. This is a method I like to do.

Under, I count how many molecules are in each side.

              Cr2O3+Mg -->Cr + MgO

Cr:              2                    1

O:                     3                            1

Mg:                         1                 1

Let's guess and make the number of oxygens equal on both sides.

              Cr2O3+Mg -->Cr + 3MgO

Cr:             2                    1

O:                      3                           3       EQUAL

Mg:                          1                   3

See what we did there? We multiplied the MgO on the products side by 3 so we can have 3 oxygens. Now let's multiply the Mg on the reactants by three so Mg AND O can be equal.

                Cr2O3+3Mg -->Cr + 3 MgO

Cr:              2                      1

O:                      3                               3        EQUAL

Mg:                         3                        3          EQUAL

Finally, we just need to multiply the loner Cr in the products side by two to make it equal for all elements.

                 Cr2O3+3Mg -->2Cr + 3 MgO

The isotope of an unknown element, X, has a mass number of 79. The most stable ion of this isotope has 36 electrons and has a 22
Tema [17]

Answer:

A) False

B) True

C) True

D) True

Explanation:

A) False. If the charge of the atom is +2 means that you have two protons more than number of electrons. If you have 36 electrons you must have <em>38 protons.</em> Also, the electrons are not in the nucleus.

B) True. The isotope of X contains 38 protons, two more than the electron number.

C) True. The mass number is the number of protons + number of neutrons.

If the mass number is 79 and there are 38 protons you must have 41 neutrons.

D) True. You can now the identity of the atom with the number of protons that is the same than atomic number. The strontium, Sr, is the atom with 38 as atomic number.

I hope it helps!

when applied to a dish, soap makes grease soluble in water. which explanation correctly supports the role of intermolecular forc
ankoles [38]
This is possible because of the emulsifying properties present in soap. This property is caused by the hydrophilic end and hydrophobic end of a soap molecule. Grease is able to be dissolved in the water because it is attracted to the hydrophobic end of the soap molecule.

What is the radius of a hydrogen atom whose electron is bound by 0.544 ev? express your answer with the appropriate units?
insens350 [35]
First, we need to calculate the principal quantum number n for this electron, using the equation:
E = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
where E is the energy that is used to bound the electron (here, E = - 0.544 eV).
- 0.544 eV = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
n x n = (- 13.60 eV) / (- 0.544 eV)
n x n = 25
n = 5

The orbital radius that is equal to the radius of a hydrogen atom is calculated using the equation:
r = 0.053 nm x n x n
r = 0.053 nm x 5 x 5
r = 0.053 nm x 25
r = 1.325 nm
