Answer:

Answer:

                   Potassium Nitride is composed of the greatest number of atoms.

Explanation:

                   

find the number of atoms present in each compound we will write down their molecular formulas and then we will add up the number of atoms present in them.

A: Dinitrogen Monoxide:

                                       Chemical formula of Dinitrogen Monoxide is N₂O. Therefore, it contains two atoms of Nitrogen and one atom of oxygen Hence, in total it contains 3 atoms.

B: Sodium Chloride:

                               Chemical formula of Sodium Chloride is NaCl. Therefore, it contains one atom of Sodium and one atom of Chlorine Hence, in total it contains 2 atoms.

C: Potassium Nitride:

                                       Chemical formula of Dinitrogen Monoxide is K₃N. Therefore, it contains three atoms of Potassium and one atom of Nitrogen Hence, in total it contains 4 atoms.

D: Carbon Dioxide:

                               Chemical formula of Carbon Dioxide is CO₂. Therefore, it contains one atom of Carbon and two atoms of Oxygen Hence, in total it contains 3 atoms.

An acid and a base react to form salt and water. Which of the following best describes this type of chemical reaction? Redox Neu
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Neutralization

Explanation:

When an acid react with base it form the salt and  water. The reaction is also called neutralization reaction because both neutralize each other.

In neutralization reaction equal amount of acid and base react to neutralize each other and equal amount of water and salt are formed. When pH does not reach to 7 its means there is less amount of one of reactant which is not fully neutralize.

Neutralization reactions are also used as first aid. For example when someone is dealing with HCl for cleaning purpose of toilet and get touched. It is advised to neutralize it with soap, milk or egg white.

Example:

Hydrochloric acid when react with the sodium hydroxide, a salt sodium chloride and water are formed.

Chemical equation:

HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O

Titration:

Neutralization reactions are also used to determine the concentration of solution. Titration is a quantitative technique in which acid or base is gradually added into the solution whose concentration is to be determine until the neutral point is reached.
