The element that has been reduced in the chemical equation is $\rm Cl_2$ .

The given reaction has been:

$\rm Mg\;+\;Cl_2\;\rightarrow\;Mg^2^+\;+\;2\;Cl^-$

The reaction has been the redox reaction, in which the one of the reactant has been oxidized, and the other has been reduced in the chemical reaction.

<h3>Reduction in the reaction</h3>

The reduction has been defined as the gain of electrons. In the given reaction, the Mg loses 2 electrons and has been converted to the Mg ion.

Thus, Mg has been oxidized in the reaction.

The Cl has been present as the diatomic molecule and with the gain of two electrons from the Mg it has been converted to two chloride ions.

Thus, the element that has been reduced in the chemical equation is $\rm Cl_2$ .

Compounds are formed when two or more <u>elements</u> are chemically combined.
When these elements are <u>chemically</u> combined, a new substance is formed with new chemical and physical <u>properties</u>.
An element is a <u>pure</u> substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by <u>physical</u> or chemical means.
A compound is two or more elements <u>combined</u> chemically to produce a new substance.
When two or more elements chemically combine, the compound has new properties, different from the chemical and physical properties of the <u>original</u> elements.

<h3>What is a chemical element?</h3>

A chemical element can be defined as a pure substance which comprises atoms that have the same atomic number (number of protons) in its nuclei and as such it is the primary constituent of matter.

Generally, some examples of a chemical element include the following:

Argon.
Sodium.
Carbon.
Oxygen.
Hydrogen.
Phosphorus
Copper
Aluminum
Potassium
Magnesium

<h3>What is a pure substance?</h3>

A pure substance can be defined as a single sample of matter that cannot be separated into other kinds of matter through the use of any physical or chemical separating technique because it has distinct chemical properties and a definite and constant composition.

What is the mass of 1.7 × 1023 atoms of zinc (Zn)?

Rudiy27

Number of moles is defined as the ratio of given mass in g to the molar mass.

The mathematical formula is:

Number of moles = $\frac{given mass in g}{molar mass}$ (1)

Number of zinc atoms is equal to $1.7\times10^{23}$ , by Avogadro number, number of moles can be calculated.

As, 1 mol= $6.022\times10^{23}$ atoms, hence,

$1.7\times10^{23}\times\frac{1 mol}{6.022\times10^{23} }$

= 0.2822 mol

Now, from formula (1), calculate mass in g (molar mass of zinc = 65.4 g/mol)

0.2822 mol = $\frac{mass in g}{65.4 g/mol}$

mass in g = ${0.2822 mol \times 65.4 g/mol$

= 18.45588 g

Thus, by rounding off the above number, it will come near about 19 g approximately.

Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.

The prevailing atmospheric pressure on a plateau in Colorado is 0.706 atm. Express this pressure in pounds per square inch, kilo

noname [10]

Answer:

1. 10.37114 psi

2. 71.5178 KPa

3. 71517.8 Pa

4. 536.56 mmHg.

5. 21.12352 inHg

Explanation:

From the question given,

Pressure = 0.706 atm

The pressure in other units of measurement is obtained as follow:

1. Pressure in Psi

1 atm = 14.69 psi

Therefore, 0.706 atm = 0.706 x 14.69 = 10.37 psi

2. Pressure in KPa

1 atm = 101.3 kPa

Therefore, 0.706 atm = 0.706 x 101.3 = 71.5178 KPa

3. Pressure in Pa

1 atm = 1.013x10^5 Pa

Therefore, 0.706 atm = 0.706 x 1.013x10^5 = 71517.8 Pa

4. Pressure in mmHg

1 atm = 760mmHg

Therefore, 0.706 atm = 0.706 x 760 = 536.56 mmHg

5. Pressure in inHg

1 atm = 29.92 inHg

Therefore, 0.706 atm = 0.706 x 29.92 = 21.12352 inHg
