Answer:

the octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that reflects the observation that main group elements and bonds and such a way that each has a electrons in its valence shell giving the same electronic configuration as noble gas

Why is it better to use the metric system, rather than the English system, in scientific measurement?
frez [133]
The metric system is based on powers of 10 so it is much easier to convert units, often just by moving the decimal point.

K3PO4+AgNO3--&gt; ???<br> Ba(HCO3)2+Ba(OH2)--&gt;
GuDViN [60]

<u>Explanation:</u>

A balanced chemical equation is one where all the individual atoms are equal on both sides of the reaction. It follows the law of conservation of mass.

  • <u>For 1:</u>

When potassium phosphate reacts with silver nitrate, it leads to the formation of silver phosphate and potassium nitrate.

The balanced chemical equation follows:

3AgNO_3+K_3PO_4\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4+3KNO_3

  • <u>For 2:</u>

When barium bicarbonate reacts with calcium hydroxide, it leads to the formation of barium carbonate, calcium carbonate and water

The balanced chemical equation follows:

Ba(HCO_3)_2+Ca(OH)_2\rightarrow BaCO_3+CaCO_3+2H_2O

PLEASE HELP ME The pH scale for acids and bases ranges from _____.
inysia [295]

The pH scale for acids and bases ranges from 1 - 14. The answer is letter C. The rest of the choices do not answered the question above. There are quite a few relationships between [H+] and [OH−] ions. And because there is a large range of number between 10 to 10-15 M, the pH is used. pH = -log[H+] and pOH = -log[OH−]. In aqueous solutions, [H+ ][OH- ] = 10-14. From here we can derive the values of each concentration.

 


 -log[H+ ] + -log[OH- ] = -log[10-14]


pH + pOH = 14


So pH = 14 – pOH and pOH = 14 –

pH 


It would be B.
