Answer:

B. The reactants and the products observe the law of conservation of mass

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

            2Na  +  Cl₂  →   2NaCl

Such a chemical reactions usually obeys the law of conservation of mass. The law states that "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed but bonds are rearranged".

  • So, the most correct thing is that reactants and products observe the law of conservation of mass.
  • The number of atoms on both sides of the expression will be the same.
  • Therefore, option B is correct.

Liula [17]

Answer: The temperature of the gas reduced to 400K.

Explanation:

Stated that ; The pressure remains the same, that is initial and final pressure equals 1atm.

Applying Charles Law

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Initial volume V1 = 1

Final volume V2 = 1/2 (halved)

Initial temperature T1 =800K

Final temperature T2 = ?

(1/800) = (1/2)/T2

T2 = 800/2

T= 400K

Therefore, when the volume is halved, the temperature reduced also to half ( 400K)

Which chemical is the reducing agent in the redox reaction below?
posledela
Option (a) is correct.

A reducing agent is the one which loses electrons to other substance.

Here, Zn has oxidation number 0 in the L.H.S of the equation, but on R.H.S its oxidation number is +2 i.e. it Zn has donated two of its electrons to Fe^{2+}.

Hence, Zn is the reducing agent here.

What quantity of copper is deposited by the same quantity of electricity that deposited 9g of aluminum
klio [65]

Answer:

Mass of copper deposited = 31.75 g

Explanation:

According to Faraday's second law of electrolysis, when the same quantity of electricity is passed through different electrolytes, the relative number of moles of the elements deposited are inversely proportional to the charges on the ions of the elements.

From this law, it can be seen that the higher the charge, the lower the number of moles of a given element deposited.

Number of moles of aluminium in 9 g of aluminium = mass / molar mass

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g

Number of moles of aluminium = 9/27 = 1/3 moles

Charge on aluminium ion = +3

3 moles of electrons will discharge 1 mole of aluminium,

1 mole of electrons will discharge 1/3 moles of aluminium

Number of moles of electrons involved = 1 mole of electrons

Charge on copper ion = +2

1 mole of electrons will discharge 1/2 moles of copper.

Mass of 1/2 moles of copper = number of moles × molar mass of copper

Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g

Mass of copper deposited = 1/2 × 63.5 = 31.75 g
