Answer:

A

Explanation:

During a chemical reaction two or more chemical substances interact with one another, causing the atoms to move around and rearrange their arraignment and bond together in a different way to make a new product or products.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

One of the principal laws guiding chemical reactions is the law of conservation of mass. It states that matter can not be created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another. Although this has been shown to be wrong to an extent, it is still the basic law guiding the way in which chemical reactions operate.

Now, to form new substances, we have some old substances coming together. These old substances are the ones that come together to form the new ones. Surely, these old substances have their own atoms too. Since they are not destroyed in the process of forming new substances, what will happen is that they are rearranged or converted from their original form to another new form to make way for the emergence of new substance type.

Write the half-reactions as they occur at each electrode and the net cell reaction for this electrochemical cell containing indi
AlexFokin [52]

Explanation:

The given cell reaction is as follows.

       In(s)| In^{3+}(aq) || Cd^{2+}(aq) | Cd(s)

Hence, reactions taking place at the cathode and anode are as follows.

At anode ; Oxidation-half reaction : In(s) \rightarrow In^{3+}(aq) + 3e^{-} ...... (1)

At cathode; Reduction-half reaction : Cd^{2+}(aq) + 2e^{-} \rightarrow Cd(s) ....... (2)

Hence, balance the half reactions by multiplying equation (1) by 2 and equation (2) by 3.

Therefore, net cell reaction is as follows.

      2In(s) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 6e^{-}

      3Cd^{2+}(aq) + 6e^{-} \rightarrow 3Cd(s)

Net reaction: 2In(s) + 3Cd^{2+}(aq) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 3Cd(s)

Thus, we can conclude that the overall cell reaction is as follows.

        2In(s) + 3Cd^{2+}(aq) \rightarrow 2In^{3+}(aq) + 3Cd(s)

A 29.7 g sample of iron ore is treated as follows. The iron in the sample is all converted by a series of chemical reactions to
Softa [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of iron in the ore is 10.9 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of iron (III) oxide = 15.6 g

We know that:

Molar mass of Iron (III) oxide = 159.69 g/mol

Molar mass of iron atom = 55.85 g/mol

As, all the iron in the ore is converted to iron (III) oxide. So, the mass of iron in iron (III) oxide will be equal to the mass of iron present in the ore.

To calculate the mass of iron in given mass of iron (III) oxide, we apply unitary method:

In 159.69 g of iron (III) oxide, mass of iron present is (2\times 55.85)=111.7g

So, in 15.6 g of iron (III) oxide, mass of iron present will be = \frac{111.7g}{159.69g}\times 15.6g=10.9g

Hence, the mass of iron in the ore is 10.9 g

When forming a chemical bond only the<br> blank electrons participate in the bonding process
serious [3.7K]

A chemical bond is created by either the transfer or sharing of electrons. Electrons with a missing full outer shell will be the ones participating in the bonding process. Hope this helped :)
