Complete and balance the molecular equation for the reaction of aqueous sodium sulfate, Na2SO4, and aqueous barium nitrate, Ba(N
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

1. The balanced molecular equation is given below:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

2. The net ionic equation is given below:

SO4^2-(aq) + Ba^2+(aq) —> BaSO4(s)

Explanation:

1. The balanced molecular equation

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + NaNO3(aq)

The above equation can be balance as follow:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + NaNO3(aq)

There are 2 atoms of Na on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of NaNO3 as shown below:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

Now, the equation is balanced.

2. The bal net ionic equation.

This can be obtained as follow:

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —>

In solution, Na2SO4 and Ba(NO3)2 will dissociate as follow:

Na2SO4(aq) —> 2Na^+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)

Ba(NO3)2(aq) —> Ba^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq)

Na2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) —>

2Na^+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq) + Ba^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq) —> BaSO4(s) + 2Na^+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq)

Cancel the spectator ions i.e Na^+ and NO3^- to obtain the net ionic equation.

SO4^2-(aq) + Ba^2+(aq) —> BaSO4(s)

The atomic number tells us how many __ or __ an element contains.
CaHeK987 [17]
Answer:-
Electrons or Protons

Explanation:-
Atomic number (Z) is defined as:
>>“The total number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is called atomic number”. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons and electrons.
>>“The total number of protons in the nucleus or electrons revolving around the nucleus of an atom”.
Example:
For instance, Hydrogen has the Atomic number(Z) 1.
Helium has the atomic number 2.
Oxygen has the atomic number 8.
| Note | Atomic number is represented by “Z”. And some ppl don’t consider the 2nd definition it’s upto u to do both or the standard one.
