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

Which of the following best describes a non metal

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

-a nonmetal is a substance that lacks the characteristics of a metal.

-Seventeen elements are generally classified as nonmetals: most are gases (hydrogen, helium, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, chlorine, argon, krypton, xenon and radon); one is a liquid (bromine); and a few are solids (carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, selenium, and iodine).

Why must the ph ammonia buffer solution be stored and dispensed in the fume exhaust hood?

Vadim26 [7]

On the other hand ammonia is a very dangerous chemical which has a pungent smell and effect the eyes of the user. Thus it kept always in the fume exhaust hood for storing and dispensing function.

The pH of ammonia buffer contains ammonium hydroxide (NH₄OH) and a salt of ammonia with a strong acid like (HCl) which produces, ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) mixture. The evaporation rate of ammonia is so high at room temperature thus on opening of the buffer solution the ammonia get evaporated very fast and the concentration of ammonia decreases which affect the pH of the buffer solution.

Thus the reason to put ammonia buffer in fume hood is explained.

How many moles of FeCl3 could be produced from 6.1 moles of Cly?<br> 2 Fe + 3Cl2 —> 2 FeCl2

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

4.1 moles of FeCl₃

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as shown below:

2Fe + 3Cl₂ → 2FeCl₃

Number of moles of Cl₂ = 6.1moles

So;

We know that from the balanced reaction expression:

3 moles of Cl₂ will produce 2 moles of FeCl₃

Therefore 6.1moles of Cl₂ will produce $\frac{6.1 x 2}{3}$ = 4.1 moles of FeCl₃

The number of moles is 4.1 moles of FeCl₃

What are the two types of transmutations?

joja [24]

<span>Transmutation is the process of changing the substance, tangible or not, from one form to the other. It means the transformation of one element in the periodic table into another by one or a series of nuclear decays or reactions. One type of transmutation is nuclear transmutation. Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one chemical element or isotope into another though nuclear reactions or nuclear decay. Second type of transmutation is artificial transmutation. Artificial transmutation occur in machinery that uses nough energy to cause changes in the nuclear structure of the elements.</span>
