Answer: Thermal decomposition

Explanation:

Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which one reactant forms two or more than two products.

Decomposition reactions require breaking of bonds which require energy and thus all of the decomposition reactions are endothermic reactions. They require energy in the form of heat, electricity or sunlight and thus called as thermal, electrolytic and photolytic decomposition respectively.

The decomposition reaction for calcium carbonate breaks down into calcium oxide and liberates carbon dioxide is :

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

I need help on 18b. i’m confused on how you would work it.
AfilCa [17]
For a and b, you need to divide it by Avogadro’s number to find the answer.

a. (6.022x10^23)/6.022x10^23 = 1 mole of Ne
b. (3.011x10^23)/6.022x10^23 = 0.5 moles of Mg

For c and d, you’ll use the mass provided divided by the molar mass to find the number of moles.
Pb molar mass = 207.2 g/mol

c. (3.25x10^5)/207.2 = 1.57x10^3 moles of Pb
For d, I can’t tell if is Cu, C or something else but you can follow the steps above to solve the problem.

Triss [41]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The lightest particle among the following is:

• Electron •Proton • Neutron • Alpha​

Answer:

Electron

Explanation:

There three basic subatomic particles are electrons, protons and neutrons. Both protons and neutrons are found in the nuclear and both contribute towards the mass of the atom. The alpha particle has the same mass as the helium nucleus.

However, the electrons are found in orbiit and have a negligible mass compared to the mass of the protons and neutrons. The mass of the electron is about 9.11 × 10^-31 Kg. This makes it the lightest of all the particles listed among the options.
