Answer:

Gallium-72

Explanation:

The elements are identified by the number of protons of the atom, which is its atomic number.

In this case the number of protons 39 (atomic number 39) permit you to identify the element as gallium.

Now, to identify the isotope you tell the name of the element and add the mass number.

The mass number is the sum of the protons and the neutrons

In this case, the number of neutrons is the original 39 plus the 2 added suddenly, i.e. 39 + 2 = 41, so the mass number is 31 + 41 = 72

Therefore, the isotope is gallium - 72.

Will the water level of the sea increase when there is global warming

alexdok [17]

Global warming will cause see levels to rise since a lot of water is stored in ice sheets which will melt. All of the melt water will end up in the ocean causing sea levels to rise.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Answer: The coefficients for the given reaction species are 1, 6, 2, 3.

Explanation:

The given reaction equation is as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} + Cl^{-} \rightarrow Cr^{3+} + Cl_{2}$

Now, the two half-reactions can be written as follows.

Reduction half-reaction: $Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} + 3e^{-} \rightarrow Cr^{3+}$

This will be balanced as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} + 14H^{+} + 6e^{-} \rightarrow 2Cr^{3+} + 7H_{2}O$ ... (1)

Oxidation half-reaction: $Cl^{-} \rightarrow Cl_{2} + 1e^{-}$

This will be balanced as follows.

$6Cl^{-} \rightarrow 3Cl_{2} + 6e^{-}$ ... (2)

Adding both equation (1) and (2) we will get the resulting equation as follows.

$Cr_{2}O^{2-}_{7} + 14H^{+} + 6Cl^{-} \rightarrow 2Cr^{3+} + 3Cl_{2} + 7H_{2}O$

Thus, we can conclude that coefficients for the given reaction species are 1, 6, 2, 3.

How many grams of sodium carbonate are produced when 5.3 moles of sodium phosphate reacts with aluminum carbonate?

Korvikt [17]

Answer: There is 842.54 grams of sodium carbonate are produced when 5.3 moles of sodium phosphate reacts with aluminum carbonate.

Explanation:

Chemical equation depicting reaction between sodium phosphate and aluminum carbonate is as follows.

$Al_{2}(CO_{3})_{3} + 2Na_{3}PO_{4} \rightarrow 2AlPO_{4} + 3Na_{2}CO_{3}$

As this equation contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side. So, this equation is a balanced equation.

According to the equation, 2 moles of sodium phosphate is giving 3 moles of sodium carbonate.

Therefore, sodium carbonate formed by 5.3 moles of sodium phosphate is as follows.

$\frac{3}{2} \times 5.3 mol\\= 7.95 mol$

As number of moles is the mass of substance divided by its molar mass. So, mass of sodium carbonate ( molar mass = 105.98 g/mol) is as follows.

$No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\7.95 mol = \frac{mass}{105.98 g/mol}\\mass = 842.54 g$

Thus, we can conclude that there is 842.54 grams of sodium carbonate are produced when 5.3 moles of sodium phosphate reacts with aluminum carbonate.
