Why couldn't you substitute 3m H2SO4 for concentrated HNO3 when oxidizing copper?

This question seems to be an essay question from experiment. Different solution of oxidizing agent will have different strength.  Sulfuric acid or H2SO4 is weaker oxidizing agent when compared to nitric acid (HNO3). In this case, if you subtitute the H2SO4 you wouldn't be able to get the same result for the experiment.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Every oxidizing agent has different properties and they are specific for different reagents. Different solution of oxidizing agent will have different strength.

Sulfuric acid or H2SO4 is weaker oxidizing agent when compared to nitric acid (HNO3). so when you use H2SO4 for the oxidizing copper it would not work because copper need strong oxidizing agent.

Why do atoms combine in an ionic bond
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Ionic bonds are formed through the exchange of valence electrons between atoms, typically a metal and a nonmetal. The loss or gain of valence electrons allows ions to obey the octet rule and become more stable. Therefore, ions combine in ways that neutralize their charges.

How many atoms of gold are in gold nugget with a mass of 4.25 g
Feliz [49]
Number of Atoms in Gold for given mass can be calculated using following formula,

              # of Moles  =  Number of Atoms / 6.022 × 10²³
Or,
             Number of Atoms  =  Moles × 6.022 × 10²³     ------- (1)    

Calculating Moles,
As,
                              Moles  =  Mass / M.mass
So,
                              Moles  =  4.25 g / 196.96 g/mol

                              Moles  =  0.0215

Putting value of mole in eq.1,

             Number of Atoms  =  0.0215 × 6.022 × 10²³

             Number of Atoms  =  1.299 × 10²²

Result:
            4.25 g 
of Gold Nugget contains 1.299 × 10²² Atoms.
