Calcium hypochlorite, Ca(OCl)2, is a bleaching agent produced from sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, and chlorine. Socium chl

oride and water are also produced in the reaction. What is the missing coefficient that will balance the chemical equation? ___NaOH + Ca(OH)2 + 2Cl2 → Ca(OCl)2 + 2NaCl + 2H2O a.1 b.4 c.2 d.3

Answer:  The missing coefficient is 2.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

2NaOH+Ca(OH)_2+2Cl_2\rightarrow Ca(OCl)_2+2NaCl+2H_2O

As in the products, there are 2 atoms of sodium, thus there will be 2 atoms of  of sodium in the reactant as well.  This will balance the number of hydrogen and oxygen atoms as well.

Thus the missing coefficient is 2.

PLEASE HURRY! What is the name of this alkane?
belka [17]

Answer:

C. 1-ethyl, 3-methylcyclohexane

(Photo for proof at the bottom.)

Explanation:

The 1-ethyl is because you start numbering from the longest branch, towards the next closest branch. Prefix "eth-" means two, there are 2 carbons in the longest branch. 3-methyl is because the next branch is at number 3, and prefix "meth-" means 1, there is 1 carbon in that chain. "Cyclo" in cyclohexane means the skeletal model is shaped like a ring, and the "hexane" means there are 6 carbons in the ring. Prefix "hex" means 6.

Here's a photo of the unit review on Edge. Refer to the 2nd attachment for a visualization.

If the partial pressure of oxygen outside of a cell is 100 mmHg and the partial pressure of oxygen inside of a cell is 25 mmHg,
mrs_skeptik [129]

" There will be a net movement of oxygen from outside the cell to inside the cell " Statement is True.

Explanation:

The partial pressure for oxygen in alveoli is greater under normal circumstances, and oxygen moves neatly into the blood. In addition, the partial carbon dioxide pressure throughout the blood usually is higher, such that carbon dioxide migrate clearly into the alveoli.

The few common molecules which can traverse the cell membrane by absorption (or diffusion of a sort recognized as osmosis) are water, carbon dioxide and oxygen. Metabolism is typically oxygen-needed, which is lowest in the cell within the animal and plant, so that net oxygen flows to the cell.

Sodium hydride reacts with excess water to produce aqueous sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas:NaH (s) H2O (l) → NaOH (aq) H2 (g)A
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

NaH(s)+ H2O (l)=>NaOH(aq)+H2(g)

You want to calculate the mass of NaH, I assume.  Otherwise, the question isn't clear.  It simply says calculate the mass(??)

 

So, calculate the moles of H2 gas that satisfy the conditions of 982 ml at 28ºC and 765 torr.  But you must subtract the vapor pressure of water at 28º to get the actual pressure of the H2 gas.  So, the actual conditions are 982 ml (0.982 L) and 301 K and 765-28 = 737 torr.

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT = (737 torr)(0.982 L)/(62.4 L-torr/Kmol)(301 K)

n = 0.0385 moles H2

 

moles NaH needed = 0.0385 moles H2 x 1 mole NaH/mole H2 = 0.0385 moles NaH required

mass of NaH needed = 0.0385 moles x 24 g/mole = 0.925 g NaH

When the equation Sn + HNO₃ → SnO₂ + NO₂ + H₂O is balanced in acidic solution, what is the smallest whole-number coefficient for
balu736 [363]

Answer:

1.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given reaction we first assign the oxidation state for each species:

Sn^0 + H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 + N^{4+}O^{2-}_2 + H^+_2O^-

Whereas the half reactions are:

Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow  N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O

Next, we exchange the transferred electrons:

1\times(Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-)\\\\4\times (H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow  N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O)\\\\\\Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +4e^-\rightarrow  4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O

Afterwards, we add them to obtain:

Sn^0+2H_2O+4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3  \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O

By adding and subtracting common terms we obtain:

Sn^0+4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3  \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+2H_2O

Finally, by removing the oxidation states we have:

Sn + 4HNO_3 \rightarrow SnO_2 + 4NO_2 + 2H_2O

Therefore, the smallest whole-number coefficient for Sn is 1.

Regards.
