Explain why aluminum does not react with potassium nitrate (KNO3) although it reacts with copper nitrate

Chemistry
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Potassium is more reactive than aluminium, so no reaction takes place. But aluminium is more reactive than copper, so it replaces the copper in copper nitrate

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

More reactive metal compound + less reactive metal

-> no reaction

However

Less reactive metal compound + more reactive metal

-> more reactive metal compound + less reactive metal

This is called substitution reaction where the more reactive metal replaces the less reactive metal in the compound.

How many moles of oxygen are needed to burn 2.7 moles of methyl
QveST [7]

Answer:

3.38 moles of O2.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

4CH2OH + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 6H2O

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of CH2OH required 5 moles of O2 for complete combustion.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of O2 needed to react with 2.7 moles of CH2OH. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of CH2OH required 5 moles of O2 for complete combustion.

Therefore, 2.7 moles of CH2OH will require = (2.7 × 5)/4 = 3.38 moles of O2 for complete combustion.

Thus, 3.38 moles of O2 is required.

2h2o ---&gt;2h2 +o2 how does the balanced chemical equation sho Law of conservation of Mass?
Licemer1 [7]
This balanced chemical equation shows the law of conversation of mas because it does not make matter nor destroy matter. If it is balanced, that means that no matter was created nor destroyed from the reactants to the products. 

2h2o ----> 2h2 + o2

h=4          h=4
o=2         o=2

Since both sides of the equation are balanced/equal, that means that no matter was created nor destroyed, which demonstrates the law of conversation of mass. <span />
