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.

Calculate the volume of 4.00 molar NaOH solution required to prepare 100 mL of a 0.500 molar solution of NaOH.
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The answer to your question is V₁ = 12.5 ml

Explanation:

Data

Volume = V₁?

[NaOH] = C₁ = 4.0 M

Volume 2 = V₂ = 100 ml

[NaOH] = C₂ = 0.5 M

Formula of dilution

                             V₁C₁   =  V₂C₂

Solve for V₁ (original solution)

                                 V₁ = \frac{V2C2}{C1}

Substitution

                                V₁ = \frac{(0.5)(100)}{4}

Simplification

                                V₁ = \frac{50}{4}

Result

                                V₁ = 12.5 ml

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Aluminum

Explanation:

Number of clues

1.- If this element has 3 rings in its Bohr model, we are looking for and element located in the third period of the periodic table.

For example Sodium, Magnesium, Aluminum, Silicate, Phosphorus, Sulfur, Chlorine and, Argon.

2.- It makes three bonds to become stable, then we are looking for and element located in the third group like

 Boron, Aluminum,  Gallium, Indium, etc

Conclusion

The element that has both characteristics is Aluminum

A chemist prepares a solution of sodium chloride by measuring out 25.4 grams of sodium chloride into a 100. mL volumetric flask
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The concentration in mol/L =  4.342 mol/L

Explanation:

Given that :

mass of sodium chloride = 25.4 grams

Volume of the volumetric flask = 100 mL

We all know that the molar mass of sodium chloride NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

and number of moles = mass/molar mass

The number of moles of sodium chloride = 25.4 g/58.5 g/mol

The number of moles of sodium chloride = 0.434188 mol

The concentration in mol/L = number of mol/ volume of the solution

The concentration in mol/L = 0.434188 mol/ 100 × 10⁻³ L

The concentration in mol/L =  4.34188 mol/L

The concentration in mol/L =  4.342 mol/L
