If it has a metal and a nonmetal bonded together it is an ionic bond. you are looking for non-metal non-metal bond. those are all covalent bonds. answer is B
Answer: <em>The number placed in front of a compound to balance a chemical reaction is called </em><em><u>coefficient</u></em>.
Explanation:
Assume this general form for a <em>chemical equation</em>:
- <em>a</em>A + <em>b</em>B → <em>c</em>C + <em>d</em>D
The letters <em>a, b, c, </em>and <em>d,</em> in front of each compound A, B, C, and D, are called coefficients and indicate the number of formula units (molecules or ions) that take part in the equation.
Those coefficients are needed to <em>balance the equation</em> and ensure compliance with the law of mass conservation.
This example shows it:
- Word equation: hydrogen + oxygen yields water
- Chemical equation: H₂ (g) + O₂(g) → H₂O(g)
- Balance, adding the coefficients so that the number of each kind of atoms is the same on the left and the right of the chemical equation:
H₂ (g) + 2O₂(g) → 2H₂O(g)
In that equation:
- The coefficient of H₂ (g) on the left is 1 (it is not written)
- The coefficient of O₂(g) on the left is 2
- The coefficient of H₂O(g) on the right is 2
You read it as: 1 mole of gaseous hydrogen and 2 moles of gaseous oxygen yield 2 moles of water vapor.
Answer & Explanation:
(a)

reducing agent = Fe²⁺
Oxidizing agent = NO₃⁻
oxidation
Fe²⁺ ⇒ Fe(OH)₃
reduction
NO₃⁻ ⇒ N₂
Oxidation Half Reaction
(<em>redox reactions are balanced by adding appropriate H⁺ and H₂O atoms)</em>
Fe²⁺ ⇒ Fe(OH)₃
Balance O atoms
Fe²⁺ + 3H₂O ⇒ Fe(OH)₃
Balance H atoms
Fe² + 3H₂0 ⇒ Fe(OH)₃ + 3H⁺
balance Charge
Fe² + 3H₂0 ⇒ Fe(OH)₃ + 3H⁺ + e⁻..............(1)
reduction Half Reaction
NO₃⁻ ⇒ N₂
Balance N atoms
2NO₃⁻ ⇒N₂
Balance O atoms by adding appropriate H₂O
2NO₃⁻ ⇒ N₂ + 6H₂O
Balance H atoms
2NO₃⁻ + 12H⁺ ⇒ N₂ + 6H₂O
Balance Charge
2NO₃⁻ + 12H⁺ + 10e⁻⇒ N₂ + 6H₂O.................(2)
Combine Equation (1) and (2)
(1) × 10: 10Fe² + 30H₂0 ⇒ 10Fe(OH)₃ + 30H⁺ + 10e⁻
(2) × 1: 2NO₃⁻ + 12H⁺ + 10e⁻⇒ N₂ + 6H₂O
(1) + (2): 10Fe² + <u><em>30H₂0</em></u> + 2NO₃⁻ + <u><em>12H⁺</em></u> + <u><em>10e⁻</em></u> ⇒10Fe(OH)₃ + <u><em>30H⁺</em></u><u><em> </em></u>+ <em><u>10e⁻</u></em> +
N₂ + <u><em>6H₂O</em></u>
10Fe² + 24H₂0 + 2NO₃⁻ ⇒ 10Fe(OH)₃ + 18H⁺ + N₂
this is the balanced reaction
REDUCTION POTENTIAL
10Fe²⁺(aq) + 10e⁻ ⇒ 10Fe(OH)₃(aq) E°ox = 10(-0.44) = -4.4V
2NO₃⁻(aq) - 2e⁻ ⇌ N₂(g) + 18H⁺ E°red = 2(+0.80) = +1.6
10Fe² + 24H₂0 + 2NO₃⁻ ⇒ 10Fe(OH)₃ + 18H⁺ + N₂ E°cell = -2.8V
E°cell = E°red + E°ox
Answer:
1/ Using the first letter of the name of the elements.
2/ If the name of two or more elements begins with the same letter,the second letter of their name is also taken with first letter.
3/ Symbols are made by using the letters of the name of elements in other languages also.
