Answer:

2KI → 2K + I₂

Explanation:

(not my definition, but form a trustworthy source)

The definition of a decomposition reaction is:

a chemical reaction in which one reactant breaks down into two or more products.

In this case, potassium iodide will decompose into potassium and iodine.

2KI → 2K + 2I

2 Potassium and 2 Iodine on both sides, so equation is balanced.

Or, it can be written as 2KI → 2K + I₂

The definition of heat transfer through convection involves the movement of a fluid that causes heat to move away from a hear source. That being said, convection can take place in a lake, air inside, and air outside since both liquids and gasses are considered to be fluids. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

While most constellations are only visible to us in different seasons, some are always there 24/7/365 because they are positioned close to the Polar Axis, or the Polaris.

What is the % composition of Carbon in Chromium (iii) Carbonate

photoshop1234 [79]

Step 1 - Discovering the ionic formula of Chromium (III) Carbonate

Chromium (III) Carbonate is formed by the ionic bonding between Chromium (III) (Cr(3+)) and Carbonate (CO3(2-)):

$Cr^{3+}+CO^{2-}_3\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3$

Step 2 - Finding the molar mass of the substance

To find the molar mass, we need to multiply the molar mass of each element by the number of times it appears in the formula of the substance and, finally, sum it all up.

The molar masses are 12 g/mol for C; 16 g/mol for O and 52 g/mol for Cr. We have thus:

$\begin{gathered} C\rightarrow3\times12=36 \\ \\ O\rightarrow9\times16=144 \\ \\ Cr\rightarrow2\times52=104 \end{gathered}$

The molar mass will be thus:

$M=36+104+144=284\text{ g/mol}$

Step 3 - Finding the percent composition of carbon

As we saw in the previous step, the molar mass of Cr2(CO3)3 is 284 g/mol. From this molar mass, 36 g/mol come from C. We can set the following proportion:

$\begin{gathered} 284\text{ g/mol ---- 100\%} \\ 36\text{ g/mol ----- x} \\ \\ x=\frac{36\times100}{284}=\frac{3600}{284}=12.7\text{ \%} \end{gathered}$

The percent composition of Carbon is thus 12.7 %.

How do atoms make molecules?

bazaltina [42]

Explanation:

Atoms can join together - they form bonds together - to make MOLECULES. ... For example, a hydrogen atom forms one bond, an oxygen atom forms two, and carbon forms four bonds. Look at that molecule of water again - each hydrogen has one bond, and the oxygen in the middle has two bonds. Molecules can be much bigger.
