Question 2

Chemistry
1 answer:
azamat3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

C

Explanation:

For A, 2Al(OH)3 contains 6H on the left side of the equation but only has 3H on the right side of the equation, thus its not balanced

For B, there is 2(Al2), which is 4, on the left side of the equation but only 2Al on the right side of the equation, so it is not balanced.

For D, theres a total of 6 H on the left side of the equation as there is (OH)3 and 3H, but none of the right side, so its not balanced.

C is the correct answer as

on the left side of the equation:

2 Al(OH)3 has 2Al, 6O, and 6H

on the right side of the equation:

Al2O3 has 2Al and 3O

3 H20 has 3H and 6O

this makes a total of 2Al, 6H and 6O, which is equal to the number of each element in the left side, thus it is balanced and is the right answer.

In the future for these type of qns, you want to add up the number of each element on the left, then the ride, and see compare the numver of element they have. if the number of all the elements on both sides are the same, the equation is balanced.

What is the emperical formula of a compound containing 40.1% carbon and 6.6% hydrogen​
levacccp [35]

Answer:

CH₂

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Percentage composition:

          Carbon  = 40.1%

          Hydrogen  = 6.6%

Unknown:

Empirical formula of the compound  = ?

Solution:

The empirical formula of a substance is its simplest formula.

 Elements                             Carbon                             Hydrogen

Percentage

Composition                           40.1                                     6.6

Molecular mass                        12                                         1

Number of moles                  40.1/12                                  6.6/1

                                                3.342                                    6.6

Divide through by

the smallest                         3.342/3.342                           6.6/3.342

                                                      1                                        2

So the empirical formula of the compound is CH₂

1. __ Fe +_ Cl → __FeCl3
Temka [501]

Answer:

2Fe + 3Cl2 → 2FeCl3

Explanation:

Fe + Cl2 —> FeCl3

There are 3atoms of Cl on the right side and 2 atoms on the left side. Therefore, to balance Cl put 2 in front of FeCl3 and put 3 in front of Cl2 as shown below:

Fe + 3Cl2 → 2FeCl3

Now, we see clearly that there are 2 atoms of Fe on the right side and 1 on the left side. This can be balanced by putting 2 in front of Fe as shown below:

2Fe + 3Cl2 → 2FeCl3

Now the equation is balanced.

Compare and contrast the Bohr model and the electron cloud models of the atom.
bogdanovich [222]

Here we have to compare the Bohr atomic model with electron cloud model.

In the Bohr's atomic model the electrons of an element is assumed to be particle in nature. Which was unable to explain the deBroglie' hypothesis or the uncertainty principle and has certain demerits.

The uncertainty principle reveals the wave nature of the electrons or electron clod model. The Bohr condition of a stable orbits of the electron can nicely be explained by the electron cloud model, the mathematical form of which is λ = nh/mv, where, λ = wavelength, n is the integral number, h = Planck's constant, m = mass of the electron and v = velocity of the electron.

The integral number i.e. n is similar to the mathematical form of Bohr's atomic model, which is mvr = nh/2π. (r = radius of the orbit).

Thus, the electron cloud model is an extension of the Bohr atomic model, which can explain the demerits of the Bohr model. Later it is revealed that the electron have both particle and wave nature. Which is only can explain all the features of the electrons around a nucleus of an element.
