The reaction will produce 12.1 g Ag₂S.
<em>Balanced equation</em> = 2Ag + S ⟶ Ag₂S
<em>Mass of Ag₂S</em> = 10.5 g Ag × (1 mol Ag/107.87 g Ag) × (1 mol Ag₂S/2 mol Ag)
× (247.80 g Ag₂S/1 mol Ag₂S) = 12.1 g Ag₂S
Zn⁰ ----> Zn⁺² + 2e⁻ - oxidation
Hg⁺² + 2e⁻ ----> Hg⁰ - reduction
Zn loses 2 moles of electrons , and Hg gains 2 mole of electrons.
So, number of moles of electrons gained and lost during reaction is equal.
Explanation:
Atoms are at their most stable when their outermost energy level is either empty of electrons or filled with electrons. Sodium atoms have 11 electrons. Two of these are in the lowest energy level, eight are in the second energy level and then one electron is in the third energy level.
Yes, electron follows the same path when it absorb and loses energy.
Yes, when an electron moves from a higher orbit to a lower orbit it always follow the same path as it moves from a lower orbit to a higher orbit. When electron absorb energy it has the power to move from lower orbit to higher orbit or energy level.
While on the other hand, when an electron loses that energy, it comes back to its original position from which it moves earlier when it absorb energy so we conclude that electron follows the same path when it absorb and loses energy.
