Answer:
The least whole number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6
Explanation:
The chemical equation above is the reaction between calcium orthophosphate and nitric acid.
To balance a chemical equation, we have to consider law of conservation of matter which states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed.
What this law implies is that, whatever we have at the reactant side must be equal to whatever is obtainable at the product side.
The above equation is
Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + HNO₃ → Ca(NO₃)₂ + H₃PO₄
To balance the equation, we'll have to check the number of atoms at each side and possibly balance the equation with the number of moles.
The balanced equation is
Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6HNO₃ → 3Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2H₃PO₄
From the balanced equation above, we can see that the number of calcium (Ca), Phosphorus (P), Oxygen(O), Nitrogen(N) and hydrogen (H) are balanced at both sides of the equation.
The least number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6
Answer:
increase
Explanation:
Let's suppose we have a sample of air in a closed container. We heat the container and we want to predict what would happen to the pressure.
According to Gay-Lussac's law, the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
Thus, if we increased the temperature of the air by heating it, its pressure would increase.
If a sample of air in a closed container was heated, the total pressure of the air would increase.
