Answer:

Cu

Explanation:

In the given reaction of the addition of copper to nitric acid,

Cu(s) + 4HNO3(aq) -> Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO2(g) + 2H2O(l)

Cu or copper would be characterized as the reducing agent in this reaction. It is the chemical substance that is losing electrons and being oxidized due to this reduction/loss in this redox reaction as it is the metal that loses electrons by reacting with the non-metals.

How many grams of F are in 12.56 g of SF6? h.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

9.80 g

Explanation:

The molecular mass of the atoms mentioned in the question is as follows -

S = 32 g / mol

F = 19 g / mol

The molecular mass of the compound , SF₆ = 32 + ( 6 * 19 ) = 146 g / mol

The mass of 6 F = 6 * 19 = 114 g /mol .

The percentage of F in the compound =

mass of 6 F / total mass of the compound * 100

Hence ,  

The percentage of F in the compound = 114 g /mol  / 146 g / mol * 100

78.08 %

Hence , from the question ,

In 12.56 g of the compound ,

The grams of F = 0.7808 * 12.56 = 9.80 g
