Fire is actually a chemical reaction. It's an oxidation reaction to be specific. When wood gets hot enough (the part of the wood that is burning) the large hydrocarbons break down to charred solids and a gas. The gas is what reacts with oxygen in the atmosphere to produced light, CO2 and H2O.
Answer:
39.2 g
Explanation:
- 2Ni₂O₃(s) ⟶ 4Ni(s) + 3O₂(g)
First we <u>convert 55.3 grams of Ni₂O₃ into moles of Ni₂O₃</u>, using its<em> molar mass</em>:
- 55.3 g ÷ 165.39 g/mol = 0.334 mol Ni₂O₃
Then we <u>convert 0.334 moles of Ni₂O₃ into moles of Ni</u>, using the <em>stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction</em>:
- 0.334 mol Ni₂O₃ *
= 0.668 mol Ni
Finally we <u>calculate how much do 0.668 Ni moles weigh</u>, using the<em> molar mass of Ni </em>:
- 0.668 mol Ni * 58.69 g/mol = 39.2 g
Explanation:
b is correct. 30.6 g H2O is produced.
Answer:
Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.
