Answer:
The coefficient of Ca(OH)2 is 1
Explanation:
Step 1: unbalanced equation
Ca(OH)2 + HNO3 → Ca(NO3)2 + H2O
Step 2: Balancing the equation
On the right side we have 2x N (in Ca(NO3)2 ) and 1x N on the left side (in HNO3). To balance the amount of N on both sides, we have to multiply HNO3 by 2.
Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 → Ca(NO3)2 + H2O
On the left side we have 4x H (2xH in Ca(OH)2 and 2x H in HNO3), on the right side we have 2x H (in H2O). To balance the amount of H on both sides, we have to multiply H2O on the right side, by 2.
Now the equationis balanced.
Ca(OH)2 + 2HNO3 = Ca(NO3)2 + 2H2O
The coefficient of Ca(OH)2 is 1
We need to keep in mind that the compound is neutral.
H2SO3
2(+1)+S+3(-2)=0 (since its neutral)
2+S-6=0
S-4=0
S=4
Therefore the oxidation number for sulfur is +4.
Answer:
the reason why Mars is red is because of its regolith, or surface material, contains lots of iron oxide — the same compound that gives blood and rust their hue
