<h3>Answer:</h3>

Phosphoric acid reacts with magnesium hydroxide to produce magnesium phosphate and water via the following reaction:

2H3PO4 + 3Mg(OH)2 → Mg3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

(solid) (solid) (solid) (liquid)

<h3>Explaination:</h3>

This is a typical neutralization reaction of an acid with a base to form a salt and water. The reaction is exothermic, gives off heat,

ΔH < 0 , and may be balanced by adding balancing numbers in front, ie adding molecules, in order to ensure that the total number of atoms of each element is the same on the left and right hand sides of the equation.

Doing so we obtain :

2H3PO4 + 3Mg(OH)2 → Mg3(PO4)2 + 6H2O

(solid) (solid) (solid) (liquid)

<h3>hope it helps :)</h3>

How would you obtain pure sugar from a mixture of sugar, charcoal, and copper?

beks73 [17]

Pure sugar can be obtained from sugar solution by the process of crystallization. It involves heating which leads to evaporation of water to make the solution saturated. The saturated solution when left undisturbed convert to pure crystals of the sugar.

Which condition increases the number of collisions between reactant molecules in a given volume?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Increasing Surface Area

Explanation:

A greater surface area (meaning more, smaller particles) allows for more opportunity for particles to collide. On the other hand, decreasing temperature and removing a catalyst would only decrease the number of collisions, and the clumping option doesn't make much sense. Hope this helps!

An organic molecule consists of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur; the molecule is probably an amino acid. carbon d

ddd [48]

Answer:

A typical organic molecule that contains carbon hydrogen oxygen nitrogen and sulfur will be an amino acid.

Explanation:

Amino acid is the basic protein unit composed of the amino group, carboxylic group, and an alkyl group (which is specific for every amino acid). The R group or alkyl group is what gives the amino acid its identity. For example, the amino acid will be glycine if a Hydrogen atom is attached in place of the R group, and alanine if somehow the R group is replaced by a methyl group. Cystine is a typical example of an amino acid in which carbon, hydrogen oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur are present. The structure of cystine is given below.

Which element is oxidized in the reaction below? fe(co)5 (l) + 2hi (g) fe(co)4i2 (s) + co (g) + h2 (g)?

DanielleElmas [232]

Oxidation state of I is (-1) and for CO it is zero. Let's assume that the oxidation state of Fe in Fe(CO)₄I₂<span> (s) is x. For whole compound, the charge is zero.

Sum of oxidation numbers in all elements = Charge of the compound.

Here we have 1Fe , 4CO and 2I
hence we can find the oxidation state as;
x + 4*0 + 2*(-1) = 0
x + 0 - 2 = 0
x = +2
Hence the oxidation state of Fe in product </span>Fe(CO)₄I₂ (s) is +2.

Same as we can find the oxidation state (y) of Fe in Fe(CO)₅(s).
y + 5*0 = 0
y = 0

Since oxidation state of Fe increased from 0 to +2, the oxidized element is Fe in the given reaction.
