Why is Cu+O=2CuO unbalanced

2 answers:

6 0

Because the two before the cuo means there is 2 moles of each atom and in the reactants there is only one mole of each so to balance the equation u need to put 2 before the cu and before the o

Answer:

because the product of CuO contains 2 molecules so it is unbalanced

Explanation:

to balance it 2Cu+2O=4CuO now it is balanced

Ag is found as too less reactive so

Cu✓
Al✓
Ca✓

No element in universe can displace potassium (K) from its solution as it's most reactive .

Nota

Fe is also a reactive metal.

Only Cupper is less reactive than it

Al✓
Ca✓

Only Calcium can displace Mg

Mg and Ni can do ,Aurum(Gold) is least reactive so can't

Only Mg

Only Mg

Mg and Ni

Only Zn

#10

Zn and Pt

#11

Nota

As Ca is third most reactive metal

#12

What is the OH- concentration of a solution whose pH is 12.40?

Elanso [62]

PH + pOH = pKw = 14

12.40 + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - 12.40

pOH = 1.6

[OH⁻] = $10 ^{-pOH}$

[OH⁻] = $10 ^{-1.6}$

[OH⁻] = 2.5x10⁻² M

hope this helps!

4. When you stir in the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a solvent, the solution becomes

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: Option D) Saturated

Explanation:

A solution is said to be saturated when it contains as much solute as it can dissolve at that temperature. Hence, if more solute is added, it will not dissolve.

Thus, a saturated solution has the maximum amount of solute that will dissolve in a solvent.
