Three things that should happen for a chemical reaction to occure :
1. Position of electrons must change
2. Chemical bonds must be formed and broken between atoms and
3. No changes should happen to the nuclei
Answer is "C".
<em><u>Explanation
</u></em>
Single replacement reaction is a type of reaction which one reactant reacts with another and makes a product by replacing one element by another.
Mg (Magnesium) reacts with Al₂O₃ (Aluminium oxide) and produces MgO (Magnesium oxide) and Al (Aluminium) as products. Here Al is replaced by Mg. Reaction is
Mg + Al₂O₃ → MgO + Al
To balance the reaction equation, both left and right hand sides should have same number of atoms in each element.
Here,
<em>Left Hand Side has </em> <em>Right Hand Side has</em>
Mg = 1 atom Mg = 1 atom
Al = 2 atom Al = 1 atom
O = 3 atom O = 1 atom
First step : balance the O atoms in both sides. To do that "3" should be added before MgO.
Second step : After balancing O atoms, there will be 3 Mg atoms in right hand side. Hence to balance Mg atoms again "3" should be added before Mg in left hand side
Third step : as the final step balance the Al atoms by adding "2" before Al in the right hand side.
Then final balanced equation should be
3Mg + Al₂O₃ → 3MgO + 2Al
Answer:
1 g
Explanation:
The half-life of Am-242 (16 h) is the time it takes for half of it to disappear.
We can make a table of the mass left after each half-life.

The mass remaining after 48 h is 1 g.
Answer:
Option D. 3, 1, 3, 1
Explanation:
From the question given above,
HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> HOH + Al(NO₃)₃
The equation can be balance as follow:
HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> HOH + Al(NO₃)₃
There are 3 atoms of N on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by 3 in front of HNO₃ as shown below:
3HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> HOH + Al(NO₃)₃
There are a total of 6 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by 3 in front of HOH as shown below:
3HNO₃ + Al(OH)₃ —> 3HOH + Al(NO₃)₃
Now, the equation is balanced.
Thus, the coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1
