Answer:
Approximately
.
Explanation:
The gallium here is likely to be produced from a
solution using electrolysis. However, the problem did not provide a chemical equation for that process. How many electrons will it take to produce one mole of gallium?
Note the Roman Numeral "
" next to
. This numeral indicates that the oxidation state of the gallium in this solution is equal to
. In other words, each gallium atom is three electrons short from being neutral. It would take three electrons to reduce one of these atoms to its neutral, metallic state in the form of
.
As a result, it would take three moles of electrons to deposit one mole of gallium atoms from this gallium
solution.
How many electrons are supplied? Start by finding the charge on all the electrons in the unit coulomb. Make sure all values are in their standard units.
.
.
Calculate the number of electrons in moles using the Faraday's constant. This constant gives the size of the charge (in coulombs) on each mole of electrons.

. As a result,
of electrons would deposit
of gallium atoms
.
Because Electrons have a negative charge
I believe <span>Na2SO3 is the solution to the problem.</span>
Answer:

Explanation:
Let's rewrite the given word equation in its chemical balanced equation representation:
1. Lead(II) nitride is represented by lead, Pb, in an oxidation state of 2+, while nitride is a typical nitrogen anion with a state 3-. As a result, the lowest common multiple between 2 and 3 is 6, meaning 2 lead cations are needed to balance 3 nitrogen anions:
.
2. Ammonium sulfate consists of an ammonium cation with a 1+ charge and sulfate anion with a 2- charge, two ammonium cations needed:
.
3. Lead(II) sulfate would have one lead cation and one sulfate anion, as they have the same magnitude of charges with opposite signs:
.
4. Ammonium nitride would require three amonium cations to balance the nitride anion:
.
Let's write the balanced equation:
