It is cheap, lightweight and extremely malleable.
The answer is it contains the electrodes. Without the salt scaffold, the arrangement in the anode compartment would turn out to be decidedly charged and the arrangement in the cathode compartment would turn out to be contrarily charged, on account of the charge lopsidedness, the terminal response would rapidly stop.
It keeps up the stream of electrons from the oxidation half-cell to a decrease half cell, this finishes the circuit.
Answer:
is insufficient to overcome intermolecular forces.
Explanation:
Temperature means, in this context, movement.
Condensation can be explained by the reduction of temperature of the system. This effect make possible the cohesion forces increases. In other words, the result is coalescence by attractive forces.
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
