1)water has a great capacity to hold a moderate heat energy
Answer:
B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we should understand oxidizing agents as those substances able to increase the oxidation state of another substance, therefore, in B. reaction we notice that copper oxidation state at the beginning is zero (no bonds are formed) and once it reacts with nitric acid, its oxidation states raises to +2 in copper (II) nitrate, thus, in B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2 nitritc acid is acting as the oxidizing agent.
Moreover, in the other reactions, copper (A.), sodium (C. and D.) remain with the same initial oxidation state, +2 and +1 respectively.
Regards.
Answer:
Explanation:
Na react with H2O to form NAOH
2 Na+2H2O....................2NAOH + H2
Ca react with water and form calcium hydroxide
Ca + 2H2O........................Ca(OH)2
Mg react with water and form Magnesium hydroxide
Mg +2H2O .........................Mg(OH)2 however this coating of mg(oh)2 prevent it from further reaction
Fe react with water and form ferric hydride
3Fe +H2O.......................2 FeH +FeO
copper do not react with water
Answer:
b) 2H+(aq) + 2C1-(aq) + Zn(s) → H2(g) + Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
Explanation:
The equation is given as;
2HCl(aq) + Zn(s) + H2(g) + ZnCl2(aq)
In writing an ionic equation, only the aqueous compounds dissociates into ions. This means HCl and ZnCl2 would dissociate to form ions.
This is given as;
2H+ + 2Cl- + Zn(s) --> H2(g) + Zn2+ + 2Cl-
The correct option is;
b) 2H+(aq) + 2C1-(aq) + Zn(s) → H2(g) + Zn2+(aq) + 2Cl-(aq)
