<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>

An oxidation-reduction reaction involves the

nadya68 [22]

The best answer is (3)

In these kind of reactions, there is a transfer of electrons from one reactant to another. electrons are lost from one substance and gained by another.

Oxidation is loss of electrons from a substance, and Reduction is gain of electrons by a substance.

These two processes cannot occur without the other. If there is a reduction there must be an oxidation reaction and vice versa. The reactions usually occur simultaneously.

For example, table salt is formed by a redox reaction. Sodium is oxidized i.e. loses an electron (and becomes positively charged) while chlorine gas is reduced i.e. gains the electron (and become negatively charged). The result is formation of sodium chloride.

If you had a mixture of ethanol, glycerol, ethylene glycol, methanol, and water, how could you separate these five substances ou

leonid [27]

Fractional distillation

Explanation:

The best way to separate the mixtures out is through the process of fractional distillation.

In fractional distillation, liquid - liquid mixtures are separated based on the differences in boiling point of their components. Let us examine the boiling points of the component of the mixtures:

Ethanol 78⁰C

Glycerol 290⁰C

Ethylene glycol 197.6⁰C

Methanol 64.7⁰C

Water 100⁰C

We see that the liquids in the mixture have different boiling points. In this process, the mixture is heated in a distillation column. When the boiling point of any component is reached, it will rise up in the column and can be channeled to a condenser where it is cooled and collected.

The liquid with the least boiling point is first separated with the one with the highest boiling is recovered last:

Order of recovery;

Methanol 64.7⁰C

Ethanol 78⁰C

Water 100⁰C

Ethylene glycol 197.6⁰C

Glycerol 290⁰C
