(Avogadro's number) of them. Usually you will have a given mass of an element. There are two basic steps to get from the given mass to the number of atoms. They are:
Mass

Moles
and
Moles

Atoms
The answer is is gamma as alpha an beta both result in the release of a particle
Hello!
Before I can answer your question we need to know the different types of chemical reactions that can occur:
- Single Replacement
- Double Replacement
- Synthesis
- Decomposition
- Combustion
Combustion is an answer that can usually be ruled out unless oxidation is occuring in the chemical equation (hyrdrogen occuring with oxygen to react)
Synthesis reaction, also known as a Combination reaction, is when the reactants combine to form a single product.
Decompostion is when a single reactant is deconstructed to form multiple products, or the opposite of Synthesis.
With these definitions alone, since they are opposite types of reactions, the answer would be Synthesis and Decomposition reactions !
Hope this helps and if you need anymore clarification feel free to ask.
We are given that the balanced chemical reaction is:
cacl2⋅2h2o(aq) +
k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) --->
cac2o4⋅h2o(s) +
2kcl(aq) + 2h2o(l)
We known that
the product was oven dried, therefore the mass of 0.333 g pertains only to that
of the substance cac2o4⋅h2o(s). So what we will do first is to convert this
into moles by dividing the mass with the molar mass. The molar mass of cac2o4⋅h2o(s) is
molar mass of cac2o4 plus the
molar mass of h2o.
molar mass cac2o4⋅h2o(s) = 128.10
+ 18 = 146.10 g /mole
moles cac2o4⋅h2o(s) =
0.333 / 146.10 = 2.28 x 10^-3 moles
Looking at
the balanced chemical reaction, the ratio of cac2o4⋅h2o(s) and k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) is
1:1, therefore:
moles k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) = 2.28
x 10^-3 moles
Converting
this to mass:
mass k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) = 2.28
x 10^-3 moles (184.24 g /mol) = 0.419931006 g
Therefore:
The mass of k2c2o4⋅<span>h2o(aq) in
the salt mixture is about 0.420 g</span>
