Answer:

A. 2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂

Explanation:

When sodium is reacted with water, a single replacement reaction occurs. The product of the reaction is typically sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

Reactants:

Sodium + water

Product:

Sodium hydroxide + hydrogen gas

So;

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂

If 15.0 mL of phosphoric acid completely neutralizes 38.5 mL of 0.150 mol/L calcium hydroxide, what is the concentration of the

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Let me give it a try.

H3PO4 + Ca(OH)2 = Ca3(PO4)2 + H2O

Balancing this reaction

2H3PO4 + 3Ca(OH)2 == Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O.

Moles= Molarity x Volume

Volume = 38.5ml = 0.0385L

Moles of Ca hydroxide = 0.150m/L x 0.0385L

(Notice the units canceling out...leaving moles).

=0.005775moles of Ca(OH)2.

From balanced reaction...

3moles of Ca(OH)2 completely reacts with 2moles of H3PO4

0.005775moles of Ca(OH)2 would completely react with....

= 0.005775 x 2/(3)

=0.00385moles of H3PO4.

Now we're looking for its Concentration in Mol/L

Molarity=Moles of solute/Volume of solution(in L)

Volume of solution assuming no other additions to the reaction = 15ml + 38.5ml =53.5ml =0.0535L

Molarity = 0.00385/0.0535

=0.072Mol/L.

If this is wrong

then Simply Try The formula for Mixing of solutions

C1V1 = C2V2

0.15 x 38.5 = C2 x (15+38.5)

C2 = 0.11M/L.

Below is the Lewis structure of the hydrogen cyanide molecule.

lianna [129]

Answer :

The number of bonding pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 2

The number of lone pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 0

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $HCN$

As we know that carbon has '4' valence electrons, hydrogen has '1' valence electrons and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $HCN$ = 1 + 4 + 5 = 10

According to Lewis-dot structure we conclude that, there are 8 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

The number of bonding pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 2

The number of lone pairs of electrons around the hydrogen atom = 0

Heredity is defined as

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

the passage of genetic instructions from one generation to the next generation.

These are called genes. One mate reporduces with another made and the genetic buildup merges 50 % and 50% with genetics(if it's meiosis), or DNA codes from the parents to the offspring that then possess some of the genes. That shows heridity.

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Oxidation–reduction or redox reactions are reactions that involve the transfer of electrons between chemical species (check out this article on redox reactions if you want a refresher!). The equations for oxidation-reduction reactions must be balanced for both mass and charge, which can make them challenging to balance by inspection alone. In this article, we’ll learn about the half-reaction method of balancing, a helpful procedure for balancing the equations of redox reactions occurring in aqueous solution.
