The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Aqueous solutions of Na_{2}CO_{3} and Ca(NO_{3})_{2}, 0.10 M each, are combined. A white precipitate is observed in the container after mixing. he precipitate is filtered andcarefully rinsed with distilled water to remove other ions. A sample of the precipitate is added to 100 mL of 0.1 M NaCl. A second sample of the precipitate is then added to 100 mL of 0.1 M HCl. What would be observed in each case?

                 Observation upon                                         Observation upon

(A)     additional precipitates forms                        no visible reaction occurs

(B)     no visible reaction occurs                            gas is produced and some                                                                                        precipitate dissolves

(C)     no visible reaction occurs                             no visible reaction occurs

(D)     additional precipitates forms                       gas is produced and some

                                                                                    precipitate dissolves

Answer: (B) No visible reaction occurs; Gas is produced and some precipitate dissolves

Explanation: When aqueous solutions of Na_{2}CO_{3} and Ca(NO_{3})_{2} are combined, it reacts according to the following balanced equation:

Na_{2}CO_{3}+Ca(NO_{3})_{2} → CaCO_{3}_{(s)}+2NaNO_{3}_{(aq)}

forming calcium carbonate (CaCO_{3}), which, as it is insoluble in water, precipitates as a solid of the color white. This process is <u>Precipitation</u> and this reaction is a <u>Precipitation</u> <u>Reaction</u>.

When calcium carbonate reacts with NaCl it produces:

CaCO_{3}+2NaCl → CaCl_{2}+Na_{2}CO_{3}

Now, calcium chloride is an inorganic compound very soluble in water, so, in this reaction, there are no precipitate and <u>no visible reaction occurs</u>.

When CaCO_{3} reacts with hydrochloridric acid, the balanced reaction is

CaCO_{3}+2HCl → CaCl_{2}+H_{2}CO_{3}

which, also produces calcium chloride and carbonic acid.

Both are soluble in water but, when carbonic acid is in an "aqueous state", carbonic acid, it dissociates, forming carbon dioxide and water. Therefore, <u>gas is produced and some precipitate dissolves</u>.

In conclusion, sentence B is the correct alternative.

choli [55]
The least electronegative component in the electron transport chain is the Hydrogen ion. 
The more electronegative is NAD+
The other component is H2O,
Next are the energy carrier molecules which are the ADP and ATP
And finally, the most electronegative is O2.

The characteristics of two different types of reactions are shown downwards
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Valence electrons are involved in Reaction B but not in Reaction A.

Explanation:

The description of reaction A in which protons are lost or gained by the atom of the element is a nuclear reaction. In nuclear reactions, the nucleons which are the protons and neutrons drives the reaction. No valence electrons in the orbiting shells are involved in this kind of reaction. During this type of reaction, an atom changes it identity to that of another.

Reaction B in which no identity change occurs is a chemical reaction. In chemical reactions bonds are formed by the atoms using the valence electrons that orbits round the central nucleus. The atoms remain the same but it chose to attain stability and an inert configuration by losing or gaining electrons.

You are required to prepare 500 ml of a 6.00 M solution of HNO3 from a stock solution of 12.0 M. Describe in detail how you woul
andriy [413]

Answer: 250 ml of stock solution with molarity of 12.0 M is measured using a pipette and 250 ml of water is added to volumetric flask of 500 ml to make the final volume of 500 ml.

Explanation:

According to the dilution law,

C_1V_1=C_2V_2

where,

C_1 = concentration of stock solution = 12.0 M

V_1 = volume of stock solution = ?

C_2 = concentration of diluted solution= 6.00 M

V_2 = volume of diluted acid solution = 500 ml

Putting in the values we get:

12.0\times V_1=6.00\times 500

V_1=250ml

Thus 250 ml of stock solution with molarity of 12.0 M is measured using a pipette and 250 ml of water is added to volumetric flask of 500 ml to make the final volume of 500 ml.
