Chemistry
1 answer:
lisabon 2012 [21]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a = 4

b = 3

Explanation:

<u>SOLUTION :-</u>

Balance it by using 'hit & trial' method , and you'll get the answer :-

2Fe₂O + 3C → <u>4</u>Fe + <u>3</u>CO₂

⇒ a = 4 ; b = 3

<u></u>

<u>VERIFICATION :-</u>

<em>In reactant side of equation :-</em>

  • Number of atoms in Fe = 2×2 = 4
  • Number of atoms in O = 2×3 = 6
  • Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3

<em>In product side of equation :-</em>

  • Number of atoms in Fe = 4×1 = 4
  • Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
  • Number of atoms in O = 3×2 = 6

Number of atoms of each element is equal in both reactant & product side of equation. Hence , the equation is balanced.

Classify each of the following as either a physical change or a chemical change.
Mkey [24]

Answer:

(a) Dissolving sugar in water  ⇒ physical change

(b) Crushing rock salt  ⇒ physical change

(c) Burning sulfur  ⇒ chemical change

(d) Digesting a chili dog ⇒ chemical change

Explanation:

<em>Physical changes</em> are those in which the substance does not alter its composition. They only involve changes of states of  matter and the chemical substance is stil the same after the change occurs. By other hand, <em>chemical changes</em> are those in which new subtances are formed. So, the subtance is not the same after the change.

(a) Dissolving sugar in water  ⇒ <em>physical change</em>; because we obtain a solution of sugar in water (sugar is stil sugar).

(b) Crushing rock salt  ⇒ <em>physical change</em>; because we obtain crushed salt, but the chemical composition of the salt is not altered.

(c) Burning sulfur  ⇒ <em>chemical change</em>; because sulfur is oxidized (chemical reaction) and new compounds are formed, for example sulfur dioxide.  

(d) Digesting a chili dog ⇒ <em>chemical change</em>; because the digestion process is produced by the action of hydrocloric acid, and new compounds are formed.

Carbon naturally occurs in two forms: diamond and graphite. Why do these two forms have very different properties?
kari74 [83]
The differences in the properties of diamond and graphite is as a result of how their particles are arranged in space. This space arrangement leads to distinct crystal structures for the two compounds. In diamond, the carbon atoms are arranged in tetrahedral shape while in graphite the carbon atoms arrayed in planes.

If a body does not have enough potassium, how might that affect neuronal firing?
astraxan [27]

Potassium is fundamental for neuron activity. If a body does not have enough potassium, then the neuron will struggle to fire because there will not be enough positively charged ions to trigger the firing of the neuron.

The potassium (K+) is maintained at a high level within the neuron at rest, whereas sodium (Na+) is maintained at a high level outside of the cell.

Neurons contain K+ and Na+ leakage channels that allow the two ions to diffuse in favor of a concentration gradient.

Depolarization opens both K+ and Na+ channels in the membrane, thereby these ions can flow out and into the axon, respectively.
