Answer:

Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift – the idea that Earth's continents move. Despite publishing a large body of compelling fossil and rock evidence for his theory between 1912 and 1929, it was rejected by most other scientists.

Solid iron is mixed with a solution of copper (I) nitrate to form iron (III) nitrate solution and metal copper. (what is the equ
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Fe + 3CuNO₃ → Fe(NO₃)₃ + 3Cu

Explanation:

  • Solid Iron = Fe
  • Copper (I) nitrate = CuNO₃ (Nitrate, NO₃⁻, always has a charge of -1).
  • Iron (III) nitrate = Fe(NO₃)₃ (That way the compound has an overall neutral charge)
  • Metal Copper = Cu

Writing the equation using symbols leaves us with:

  • Fe + CuNO₃ → Fe(NO₃)₃ + Cu

<em>It is not balanced yet</em>. Now we <u>balance the NO₃ species on the left side</u>:

  • Fe + 3CuNO₃ → Fe(NO₃)₃ + Cu

Finally we<u> balance the Cu species on the right side</u>:

  • Fe + 3CuNO₃ → Fe(NO₃)₃ + 3Cu

What volume does 18.0g of bromine occupy?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Hey there!

Atomic mass Bromine ( Br ) = 79.9 u

Therefore:

79.9 g Br --------------- 22.4 L ( at STP )

18.0 g Br --------------- volume ??

Volume Br = 18.0 * 22.4 / 79.9

Volume Br = 403.2 / 79.9

Volume Br = 5.046 L

hope this helps!

I am a nonmetal.I am in the Oxygen family and in row 3.I have 6 valence electrons.I am yellow and have a stinky smell.Who am i
Dimas [21]

Answer:

sulfur

Explanation:

In oxygen family sulfur has yellow color and also having stinky smell. Thus given statements are about sulfur.

It is present in oxygen family.

It has six valance electrons.

Its atomic number is 16.

Its atomic weight is 32 amu.

The electronic configuration of sulfur is given below,

S₁₆ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁴

We can see the valance shell is third shell and it have six electrons thus sulfur have six valance electrons. (3s² 3p⁴ )

Sulfur is used in vulcanisation process.

It is used in bleach and also as a preservative for many food.

it is used to making gun powder.
