Answer:
Answer:
step 1:balance skeleton equation the chemical equation:
Zn +HNO3➔Zn(NO3)2+NO+H2O
step 2: identity undergoing oxidation or reduction
here
Zn➔Zn(NO3)2
Zn is oxidized from 0 to 2 in oxidation no.
HNO3➔NO
N is reduced from 5 to 2 in oxidation no
Step 3: calculate change in oxidation no.
change in oxidation no
in Zn=0-2=-2=2
in
N=5-2=3
Step 4: Balance it by doing crisscrossed multiplication
we get;
3Zn +2HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+H2O
step 6:Balance other atoms except H & O
3Zn +2HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+H2O
3Zn +2HNO3+6HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+H2O
finally: balance H
<em><u>3Zn +8HNO3➔3Zn(NO3)2+2NO+4H2O</u></em>
Answer:
1.2 ( two significant digits)
Explanation:
5.4 - 4.21 answer should only have the the number of significant digits as the number in the equation with the least number of significant digits... in this case 5.4 is only two significant digits....so the answer should only have two significant digits
5.4 - 4.21 = 1.19 round to two digits = 1.2
