Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

It is a common observation that a strip of aluminium metal in aqueous copper(II)Sulfate does not show any visible reaction. Aluminium is normally expected to displace copper in solution since it is higher than copper in the electrochemical series.

The reason for this is that aluminium forms an oxide film around its surface which prevents reaction with aqueous copper(II)Sulfate. This oxides film protects the aluminium surface such that it is now unable to react with the aqueous copper(II)Sulfate

Answer:

CaCl2 (aq) + K2CO3(aq) ---------> CaCO3(s) + 2KCl(aq)

Explanation:

We have the reactants as calcium chloride and potassium carbonate. Recall that we are expecting that the reaction will yield a precipitate. We must keep that in mind as we seek to write its balanced chemical reaction equation.

So we now have;

CaCl2 (aq) + K2CO3(aq) ---------> CaCO3(s) + 2KCl(aq)

Recall that the rule of balancing chemical reaction equation states that the number of atoms of each element on the right side of the reaction equation must be the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the left hand side of the reaction equation.

How do chemical and nuclear reactions differ in(c) Effect on rate of higher reactant concentration?
DochEvi [55]

Nuclear reactions involve a change in an atom's nucleus, usually producing a different element. Chemical reactions, on the other hand, involve only a rearrangement of electrons and do not involve changes in the nuclei.

<h3>What affects the rate of nuclear reactions?</h3>

Reactant concentration, the physical state of the reactants, and surface area, temperature, and the presence of a catalyst are the four main factors that affect reaction rate.

<h3>What is the main difference between chemical reactions and nuclear reactions?</h3>

Chemical reaction normally occurs outside the nucleus. Nuclear reaction happens only inside the nucleus. When chemical reactions occur elements hold their identity and the nuclei of atoms also remains unchanged. During nuclear reactions, the nuclei of atoms changes completely and new elements are formed.
