Answer:

Alpha decay occurs when a nucleus is unstable because it has too many protons. ... The nucleus emits an alpha particle and energy. An alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons, which is actually a helium nucleus. Losing the protons and neutrons makes the nucleus more stable

iragen [17]
Although coal and diamonds are both composed of carbons alone, they differ in their properties because of the bonds present in each substance. Diamonds are composed of covalent bonds which are strong and is crystalline in nature which makes it sturdier. Coal is amorphous which allows the slipping of irregular layers to each other making coal brittle

Word equations- Please help ASAP
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

In this case, you just need to use any acid you want (Like HCl, or H₂SO₄) to do this exercise.

You are given a sample of what you have to do which is:

Acid + metal ------> Salt + hydrogen

As you can see, an acid like the ones I wrote above, have hydrogen atoms, so you should put the hydrogen there. As for the part of salt, you just need to draw the corresponding salt that is formed when the acid reacts with the metal, and write it's name.

Let's do all three equations for you to a better understanding. For all the given examples, I will use HCl as acid, and i will explain one reaction cause the other two reactions happens the same thing, only with a different metal.

1. 2HCl + Zn ------> ZnCl₂ + H₂

As you can see, we just have a displacement reaction where the metal displaces the position of the hydrogen to form the salt and the hydrogen leaves the molecule as a gaseous molecule. Written in words it would be:

Hydrochloric acid + Zinc ----> Zinc chloride + hydrogen

2. 2HCl + Pb -------> PbCl₂ + H₂

Hydrochloric acid + lead ------> Lead (II) chloride + hydrogen

3. 2HCl + Fe -------> FeCl₂ + H₂

Hydrochloric acid + iron ------> Iron (II) chloride + hydrogen

Hope this helps
