Answer:

I think that it it correctly balanced that is my opinion and, because  the way it is set up, that the answer will tell you weather or not it is correctly balanced or not.

Evaluating the number of atoms of each element on the product and reactant side, we can conclude that the student's equation isn't balanced.

<u>Given the chemical reaction</u> :

Al_{4}C_{3} + 6H_{2}O ---> 3CH_{4} + 4Al(OH)_{3}

For a balanced equation, the number of atoms of each element in the product side must be equal to that on the reactant side.

<u>Number of hydrogen</u> :

Reactant side = (6 × 2) = 12

Product side = (6 × 2) + (6 × 2) = 12 + 24 = 24

<em>Product side ≠ reactant side</em> ; Hence, the equation isn't balanced

<u>The balanced equation for the reaction goes thus</u> :

Al_{4}C_{3} + 12H_{2}O ---> 3CH_{4} + 4Al(OH)_{3}

<u>Reactant side</u> :

Al = 4

H = (12 × 2) = 24

O = 12

C = 3

<u>Product side</u> :

H = (6 × 2) + (6 × 2) = 12 + 24 = 24

Al = 4

O = 4 × 3 = 12

C = 3

Therefore, the student's equation isn't balanced, the balanced version of the equation has been given .

1. Calculate the attractive bonding force for NaF and for MgO when the ions just touch. Based on the attractive bonding force, w
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The attractive force is negative and MgO has a higher melting point

Explanation:

From Couloumb's law:

Energy of interaction, E = k \frac{q1q2}{r}

where q1 and q2 are the charges of the ions, k is Coulomb's constant and r is the distance between both ions, i.e the atomic radii of the ions.

If you look at Coulomb's law, you note that in the force is negative (because q1 is negative while q2 is positive).

In addition to that, the compounds MgO and NaF have similar combined ionic radii, then we can determine the melting point trend from the amount of energy gotten

The melting point of ionic compounds is determined by 1. charge on the ions 2. size of ions. while NaF has smaller charges (+1 and -1), MgO (+2 and -2) has larger charges and greater combined atomic radii. This implies that the compound with greater force would have a higher melting point.

Hence the compound MgO would have a higher melting point than NaF.

Potassium permanganate(KMnO4) reacts with oxalic acid (H2C2O4) in aqueous sulfuric acid according to: 2KMnO4 5H2C2O4 3H2SO4-&gt;
Andru [333]

Answer:

57.3mL of 0.250M KMnO4 are required

Explanation:

3.225g of oxalic acid are:

3.225g×(1mol / 90.03g) = <em>0.03582mol of oxalic acid</em>

Based on the reaction, 5 moles of oxalic acid react with 2 moles of KMnO4, thus, for a complete reaction of oxalic acid you need:

0.03582mol of oxalic acid × (2mol KMnO4 / 5mol Oxalic Acid) = <em>0.01433mol of KMnO4</em>

<em />

If concentration of KMnO4 is 0.250M, liters in 0.01433mol are:

0.01433mol × (1L /0.250mol) = 0.0573L ≡<em> 57.3mL of 0.250M KMnO4 are required</em>

<em></em>
