Answer:
- <em>Chemical equations are balanced </em><u>to comply with the law of conservation of mass.</u>
Explanation:
Law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be either created or destroyed.
A skeleton chemical equation shows the reactants and products of a chemical reaction without taking into account the real proportion in which the reactants combine and the products are obtained.
An example of a skeleton reaction is the combustion of methane:
Such as that equation is shown, there are four atoms of hydrogen in the reactants but only 2 atoms of hydrogen in the products. Also, there are 2 atoms of oxygen in the reactants but three atoms of oxygen in the products. This seems to show that some atoms of hydrogen have been destroyed and some atoms of oxygen have been created. This is impossible as it is against the law of conservation of matter.
Then, to show a real situation, the chemical equation of combustion must be balanced, adjusting the coefficients. This is the balanced chemical equation:
Now you see that the number of atoms of each matter is conserved: the number of carbon atoms in each side is 1, the number of atoms of hydrogen in each side is 4, and the number of atoms of oxygen in each side is 4. Thus, by balancing the chemical equation, the law of conservation of mass is not violated.
Answer:
The emission spectrum is formed when the electrons of a particular atom absorb energy and are excited (in this case by heating), reaching higher energy levels.
You can see it for example with an experiment where we light alcohol mixed with banana chips (it has potassium). The burning alcohol emits heat that makes potassium atoms excite and these in turn emit something red, orange light. If we add for example boric acid you see a green light.
Explanation:
Answer:
When a magnesium atom reacts with an oxygen atom, magnesium gives up its two valence electrons and becomes a positively charged ion, i.e. a cation, Mg2+ … The cation and the anion will then be attracted to each other by way of the electrostatic force of attraction → an ionic bond is formed.

hope it helps, please mark as brainliest
It is an endothermic reaction, as the product have more energy than the reactants. So, the answer would be A. Brainliest? Hope this helped!❤️
Answer:
0.78 atm
Explanation:
Applying general gas equation
PV/T= P'V'/T'................ Equation 1
Where P = initial pressure, T = Initial temperature, V = Initial Volume, P' = Final pressure, V' = Final Volume, T' = Final Temperature.
make P' the subject of the equation
P' = PVT'/TV'.............. Equation 2
From the question,
Given: P = 1.00 atm, V = 5.20 L, T = 60°C = (273+60) = 333K, V' = 6.00 L, T' = 27°C = (27+273)K = 300 K
Substitute these values into equation 2
P' = (1×5.2×300)/(333×6)
P' = 1560/1998
P' = 0.78 atm.
