The coefficient for NaNO₃ = 6

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:

• 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.

• 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product

• 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1

Reaction

AI(NO₃)₃ +Na₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄) + NaNO₃

give coefficient

aAI(NO₃)₃ +bNa₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ +c NaNO₃

Al, left=a, right=2⇒a=2

N, left=3a, right=c⇒3a=c⇒3.2=c⇒c=6

Na, left=2b, right=c⇒2b=c⇒2b=6⇒b=3

The equation becomes :

2AI(NO₃)₃ +3Na₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ +6NaNO₃

Two 15.Kg objects are placed at four different distances from each other. At which distance would the two objects have the stron

erica [24]

Answer:

The strongest gravitational attraction between the two objects will be experienced when the distance between the two objects is smallest.

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation, the force of attraction between two objects is proportional to the products of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance of separation between the two objects. This attraction between objects is known as gravity and it applies to all objects in the universe.

From the law of universal gravitation, since their is an inverse square relationship between gravitational force and the distance of separation between two interacting objects, an increase in the distance of separation will result in weaker gravitational forces. For example, if the distance of separation between two objects is increased by a factor of 2, then the force of gravitational attraction is decreased by a factor of 4 (since 2² = 4). However, if the distance of separation between the two objects is decreased by a factor of two, i.e. is halved, then the force of gravitational attraction is increased by a factor of 4.

Thus, the strongest gravitational attraction between the two objects will be experienced when the distance between the two objects is smallest.

In a chemical reaction, exactly 2 mol of substance A react to produce exactly 3 mol of substance B. 2 A ⟶ 3 B How many molecules

Harman [31]

Answer:

There will be produced 1.71 moles of B which contain 1.03×10²⁴ molecules

Explanation:

The example reaction is:

2A → 3B

2 moles of A produce 3 moles of B

If we have the mass of A, we convert it to moles and then, we make the rule of three: 29.2 g / 25.6g/mol = 1.14 moles

Therefore 2 moles of A produce 3 moles of B

1.14 moles of A will produce (1.14 . 3) / 2 = 1.71 moles of B are produced

Now we can determine, the number of molecules

1 mol has NA molecules (6.02×10²³)

1.71 moles have (1.71 . NA) = 1.03×10²⁴ molecules

The rare earth elements include A. the lanthanide series and the alkali metals. B. the alkali metals and the transition metals.

Novay_Z [31]

<span>The rare earth elements include the lanthanide series, scandium and yttrium. They are a set of seventeen chemical elements in the periodic table. They really are not that rare but they occur together in nature and are hard to separate from one another.</span>
