Answer:
!atoms in the nitrogen family.. have 5 valence electrons. They tend to share electrons when they bond. Other elements in this family are phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and bismuth.
This is the reaction formula,
4Fe+3O2=2Fe2O3
<span>3Fe+202=Fe3O4
it has o</span>xygen atom after it's rusted
The law of conservation of mass dictates that the total mass of reactants must be equal to the total mass of the products. Thus:
mass(MgO) = mass(Mg) + mass(O)
mass(MgO) = 24 + 16
mass(MgO) = 40 g
The third option is correct.
If you are provided with Cation and an Anion with different oxidation states, then there ratio in the formula unit is adjusted as such that the oxidation number of one ion is set the coefficient of other ion and vice versa,
Example:
Let suppose you are provided with A⁺² and B⁻¹, so multiply A by 1 and B by 2 as follow,
A(B)₂
In statement we are given with Co⁺³ and SO₄⁻², so multiply Co⁺³ by 2 and SO₄⁻² by 3, hence,
Co₂(SO₄)₃
Result:
Co₂(SO₄)₃ is the correct answer.
Metals like sodium, potassium, magnesium, etc. are extracted by electrolysis of their chlorides in molten state.
These metals are not extracted by reduction of their oxides with carbon because:
Carbon has less affinity for oxygen than these metals
Carbon is a weaker reducing agent than these metals
These metals easily form oxides with oxygen, their oxides are very stable. Affinity to the oxygen is one the greatest of all elements.
Reducing agent is element or compound who loose electrons in chemical reaction. Sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium are very strong reducing agents because they easily loose one or two valence electrons.
Electrolysis is a chemical methode that uses electric currents for chemical reactions.
