7 0

Answer:

First, balance the half-reactions

Second, equalize the electrons

Third,add two reaction equations to get final answer

Explanation:

For example

H₂C₂0₄ + MnO⁻₄ ---------->CO₂+Mn²⁺

(i) Balancing the half reactions

H₂C₂O₄-------->2CO₂+2H⁺+2e⁻

5e⁻ +8H⁺+MnO₄⁻----------->Mn²⁺+4H₂O

(ii)

Equalizing the electrons

5H₂C₂O₄--------->10CO₂+10H⁺+10e⁻  ---here there is a factor of 5

10e⁻+16H⁺+2MnO₄⁻--------->2Mn²⁺+8H₂O -----here there is a factor of 2

(iii)

Add the two where electrons and some Hydrogen ions will cancel out

5H₂C₂O₄+6H⁺+2MnO₄⁻---->10CO₂+2Mn²⁺+8H₂O

What is the expected mass (in kg) of a 10 over 5 B isotope? 1 proton = 1.6726 × 10-27 kg 1 neutron = 1.6749 × 10-27 kg A.1.67 ×
Ira Lisetskai [31]
^{10}_5 B
An atom of this isotope contains 5 protons and 10-5=5 neutrons.

5 \times 1.6726 \times 10^{-27} + 5 \times 1.6749 \times 10^{-27} = \\
8.363 \times 10^{-27} + 8.3745 \times 10^{-27}= \\
16.7375 \times 10^{-27}= \\
1.67375 \times 10^{-26} \approx \\
1.67 \times 10^{-26}

The answer is A. 1.67 × 10⁻²⁶ kg.

What’s the connection between population and limiting factors?
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Limiting factors are resources or other factors in the environment that can lower the population growth rate. Limiting factors include a low food supply and lack of space. Limiting factors can lower birth rates, increase death rates, or lead to emigration.

If 3.50 moles of sodium chloride is added to your food, how many grams is added?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

204.8g

Explanation:

The number of moles of a substance is related to its mass and molecular mass as follows:

mole (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)

According to this question, 3.50 moles of sodium chloride (NaCl) is added to a food.

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5g/mol

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Mass = molar mass × mole

Mass = 58.5g/mol × 3.5mol

Mass = 204.75

Mass = 204.8grams.

Therefore, 204.8grams of NaCl or common salt was added to the food.
