The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is

2Ca(s) + O₂(g) → 2CaO(s)

and

The process meets the requirements to be considered a redox reaction.

From the question,

We are to write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction between Calcium metal and oxygen gas

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is

2Ca(s) + O₂(g) → 2CaO(s)

This is the balanced chemical equation for the reaction

To determine whether the reaction meets the requirements to be considered a redox reaction,

We will define the term <em>redox reaction</em>

<em></em>

A <em>redox reaction</em>, also called oxidation-reduction reaction, is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a participating chemical species changes.

From the balanced equation above we can observe that the oxidation number of the participating species(Calcium and oxygen) changed.

The oxidation number of Calcium changed from 0 to +2

and

The oxidation number of Oxygen changed from 0 to -2

∴ The process meets the requirements to be considered a redox reaction.

Hence, the balanced chemical equation for the reaction is

2Ca(s) + O₂(g) → 2CaO(s)

and

The process meets the requirements to be considered a redox reaction.

Answer:

1) Decomposition

2)Double-replacement reaction

3)synthesis

4)Double-replacement reaction

5)single-replacement reaction

6)Double-replacement reaction

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Synthesis: This is a reaction where two or more reactants will combine to form a new, single product. This is  occurs when two or more reactants combine to form a single product.  This can be shown with the following equation.

A + B → C

A and B are the reactants to form a new product C

Decomposition: This is a reaction where 1 (more complex) compound will be broken down into 2 or more (more simple)  products.

This can be shown by the following equation:

AB → A + B

A single replacement: This is a reaction where one element wil be replaced by another element in the same compound. This can be shown by the following equation:

A + BC → B + AC

Here is the elemnt B in the compound BC, replaced by the element A, to form a new compound AC

A double-replacement: This is a reaction where the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds will be exchanged and 2 new compounds willbe formed. This can be shown by the following equation:

AB+CD→AD+BC

A combustion reaction requires oxygen gas (O2) to produce the  products CO2 and H2O

Step 2:

1) 2HgO(s) → 2Hg(l) + O2(g)

⇒ Decomposition

2) KCl(aq) + AgNO3(aq) → AgCl(s) + KNO3(aq)

⇒  Double-replacement reaction

3) 2Na(s) + H2(g) → 2NaH(s)

⇒ synthesis

4) Mg(OH)2(aq) + 2HNO2(aq) → Mg(NO2)2(aq) + 2 H2O(l)

⇒  Double-replacement reaction

5) Ca(s) + 2AgNO3(aq) → Ca(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)

⇒  Single-replacement reaction

6) Al2O3(s) + H2SO4(aq) → Al2(SO4)3(aq) + H2O(l)

⇒  Double-replacement reaction

Lead(II) nitrate and ammonium iodide react to form lead(II) iodide and ammonium nitrate according to the reaction Pb ( NO 3 ) 2
nikklg [1K]

Answer : The volume of NH_4I solution required is, 2.93 L

The number of moles of PbI_2 formed from the reaction is, 0.662 moles.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the initial moles of Pb(NO_3)_2.

\text{Moles of }Pb(NO_3)_2=\text{Concentration of }Pb(NO_3)_2\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }Pb(NO_3)_2=0.700M\times 0.945L=0.662mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of NH_4I

The balanced chemical reaction is:

Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)+2NH_4I(aq)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)+2NH_4NO_3(aq)

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react with 2 moles of NH_4I

So, 0.662 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react with 0.662\times 2=1.32 moles of NH_4I

Now we have to calculate the volume of NH_4I

\text{Volume of }NH_4I=\frac{\text{Moles of }NH_4I}{\text{Concentration of }NH_4I}

\text{Volume of }NH_4I=\frac{1.32mol}{0.450mol/L}=2.93L

Now we have to calculate the moles of PbI_2

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react to give 1 moles of PbI_2

So, 0.662 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react to give 0.662 moles of PbI_2

Thus, the number of moles of PbI_2 formed from the reaction is, 0.662 moles.

Describe the formation of an aqueous libr solution when solid libr dissolves in water
steposvetlana [31]

Answer and Explanation:

The water is a polar solvent which dissolves into the LiBr molecules and converts into Li^+ and Br^- ions far from the solid also into the solution, when they are hydrated.

Now, the complete words are as given below:-

The K^+ and I^- ions at the surface of the solid are pulled into the solution by the polar water molecules, where the hydration process surrounds separate ions with water molecules.
