Answer:

Double-Replacement Reaction

Explanation:

Mg is Oxidized, and O2 is the cause of the oxidation, hence the Oxidizing agent. That means that O2 is Reduced and Mg is the cause naming it the Reducing agent.

In order for rock formations to move the plates__________ .

ANEK [815]

Igneous rocks are found where plates diverge, as lava rises and fills the gap between the plates. Igneous rocks also form where plates converge. The subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the Earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes.

Juliette [100K]

Hyperventilation will blow off carbon dioxide which reduces the alkaline component of the blood, resulting in acidosis and a lower blood pH. (See Andromeda Strain). This is why re-breathing into a bag to increase carbon dioxide in your blood will make you feel less faint. Basically It increases the pH ... you can look at CO2 as an acid ... and when reduced ... alkalinization of the pH occurs

Answer:

97.1%

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation, the number of moles of hydrogen gas produced can be calculated from information provided about the volume of gas evolved at a given temperature and pressure.

The stoichiometry of the reaction is now used to obtain the number of moles of Zn that will produce a given number of moles of hydrogen from the balanced reaction equation as shown. This gives us the number of moles of zinc reacted hence the mass of zinc in the coin since it is assumed that all the zinc reacts.

This is now used to calculate the mass percentage of Zn as shown.
