Chloroacetic acid <em>is stronger. </em>
<em>This is because it contains (more electronegative) chlorine atoms in place of (less electronegative) hydrogen atoms.</em>
Sodium chloride is made from one sodium atom and one chlorine atom:
Sodium has a charge of +1, or just +.
Chlorine has a charge of -1, or just -.
These balance out.
Answer:
2 H⁺ + 2e = H₂ ( reduction )
Explanation:
Fe( s ) + 2 CH₃COOH = Fe ( OOCCH₃ ) ₂ + H₂
Fe( s ) = Fe⁺² + 2e ( oxidation )
2 H⁺ + 2e = H₂ ( reduction )
The law of conservation of mass applies to every reaction. In this case, you start with 1 Mg, 2 H, and 2CL and end up with the same five only their bonds have been rearranged, or in other words, they are joined up differently.
