When K2SO4 is separated into its ions, it is written like this.

K2SO4 -> 2K+ + SO4^-2.

This is a balanced equation.

Answer: K^+ and SO_4^-^2

Explanation: Potassium is a first group metal with one valence electron and so it has +1 charge. Sulfate ion is a polyatomic ion with -2 charge. The compound potassium sulfate has two potassium ions and one sulfate ion and the below equation shows how the ions are written when the compound is dissociated into its ions.

K_2SO_4\rightarrow 2K^++SO_4^-^2

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Upon arrival we needed to hunt in this new land we only had five refills and they needed 50 g of gunpowder to be shot once. We only have 15 pounds of gunpowder. It is taking six shots to kill one of these wild turkeys. How many turkeys can be shot with 15 pounds of gunpowder?

If we had plenty of refills, and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey at 50 gms of gunpowder per shot, then each turkey requires 6X50 =300gms of gunpowder.  We have 15X454 gms of gunpowder and have the potential to kill 15X454/300=22.7 or 22 turkeys.and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey.

The limiting reagent is the number of refills, and withonly 5, we are out of luck and can't kill one turkey

Complete and balance the following redox equation using the set of smallest whole– number coefficients. Now sum the coefficients
Elena L [17]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation in a acidic solution is,

BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)

The sum of the coefficients is, 17

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in acidic solution are :

First we have to write into the two half-reactions.

Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.

Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.

If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the less number of oxygen are present.

If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydrogen ion (H^+) at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.

Now balance the charge.

The given chemical reaction is,

BrO_3^-(aq)+Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+Sb^{5+}(aq)

The oxidation-reduction half reaction will be :

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-

  • First balance the main element in the reaction.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-

  • Now balance oxygen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

  • Now balance hydrogen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^+\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

  • Now balance the charge.

Oxidation : Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}+2e^-

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

The charges are not balanced. Now multiplying oxidation reaction by 3 and then adding both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation : 3Sb^{3+}\rightarrow 3Sb^{5+}+6e^-

Reduction : BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O

The balanced chemical equation in acidic medium will be,

BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)

The sum of the coefficients = 1 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 3

The sum of the coefficients = 17

The United States has about which percentage of the world's coal reserves?
aev [14]

Answer:

The United States leads the world with over 260 billion short tons of recoverable coal reserves—28% of total global reserves and 50% more than Russia, which possesses the world's second largest reserves. so the answer would be 28%
