Answer:
The least whole number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6
Explanation:
The chemical equation above is the reaction between calcium orthophosphate and nitric acid.
To balance a chemical equation, we have to consider law of conservation of matter which states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed.
What this law implies is that, whatever we have at the reactant side must be equal to whatever is obtainable at the product side.
The above equation is
Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + HNO₃ → Ca(NO₃)₂ + H₃PO₄
To balance the equation, we'll have to check the number of atoms at each side and possibly balance the equation with the number of moles.
The balanced equation is
Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6HNO₃ → 3Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2H₃PO₄
From the balanced equation above, we can see that the number of calcium (Ca), Phosphorus (P), Oxygen(O), Nitrogen(N) and hydrogen (H) are balanced at both sides of the equation.
The least number coefficient for HNO₃ is 6
The nulear charge is the number of protons.
As the number of protons increases, the nuclear charge grows ant thhe pulling electrostatic force between them and electrons also grows, given that the electrostatic force is proportional to the magnitude of the charges.
As the number of electrons grows, they occupy outer shelss (farther from the nucleus). And the outer electrons will feel not only the atraction of the protons from the nucleus, but the repulsion of the inner electrons.
Then, we see that the increase of nuclear charge is opposed by the increase of core electrons, and the outer (valence) electrons are not so tied to the nucleus as the core electrons are.
This is called shielding effect. A way to quantify the shielding effect is through the effective nuclear charge which is the number of protons (Z) less the number of core electrons.
The more the number of core shells the greater the shielding effect experience by electros in the outermost shells.
The shielding effect, explains why the valence eletrons are more easily removed from the atom than core electrons, and also explains some trends of the periodic table: variationof the size of the atoms in a row, the greater the shielding efect, the less the atraction force felt by the outermos electron, the farther they are and the larger the atom.
Answer:
A. Peroxide breaking down into water and oxygen
Explanation:
Generally when it comes to changes, there are physical and chemical changes. In physical changes, there are no new substances been formed, however in chemical change new substances are formed.
A. Peroxide breaking down into water and oxygen
This is a chemical change.
B
. Bubbles forming when a pot of water is heated
This is a physical change
C. A pair of jeans soaked in water drying after hanging outside
This is a physical change
D
. A block of ice decreasing in size due to a change in temperature
This is a physical change.
Only option A is different from the rest,hence this is the answer.
Mass =?
moles of N2 = 4.25 x 103 mol
molar mass of N2 = (14)x2 = 28
Answer:
Redox
Explanation:
Reduction is gain of electrons
oxidation is loss of electrons
