Answer:

a. neutron

Explanation:

A neutral atom has the same number of protons and electrons because in order for it to be a neutral atom the charges must be the same.

a neutron has no charge therefore it can be different then the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom as it won't affect the charge.

Which is the correct net ionic equation for the following reaction: H3PO4 (aq) + 3 LiOH (aq) > Li3PO4 (aq) + 3 H2O (l)?

torisob [31]

Answer: The correct option for the chemical equation $H_3PO_4(aq.)+3LiOH(aq.)\rightarrow Li_3PO_4(aq.)+3H_2O(l)$ is 1.

The correct option for the chemical equation $2HBr(aq.)+Co(OH)_2(aq.)\rightarrow CoBr_2(aq.)+2H_2O(l)$ is 3.

Explanation:

For the chemical equation:

$H_3PO_4(aq.)+3LiOH(aq.)\rightarrow Li_3PO_4(aq.)+3H_2O(l)$

$H_3PO_4$ is a weak acid and hence will not dissociate into ions whereas LiOH is a strong base and will easily dissociate into ions.

The product $Li_3PO_4$ is soluble in water and hence, will dissociate into its respective ions. Hence, the ionic equation for this reaction is:

$H_3PO_4(aq.)+3Li^{3+}(aq.)+3OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow 3Li^{3+}(aq.)+PO_4^{3-}(aq.)+3H_2O(l)$

Net ionic equation becomes:

$H_3PO_4(aq.)+3OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow PO_4^{3-}(aq.)+3H_2O(l)$

So, the correct option is 1.

For the chemical equation:

$2HBr(aq.)+Co(OH)_2(aq.)\rightarrow CoBr_2(aq.)+2H_2O(l)$

HBr and $Co(OH)_2$ are strong acid and strong base respectively, hence they will easily dissociate into ions.

The product, $CoBr_2$ is is soluble in water and hence, will dissociate into its respective ions. Hence, the ionic equation for this reaction is:

$2H^+(aq.)+2Br^-(aq.)+Co^{2+}(aq.)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow Co^{2+}(aq.)+2Br^-(aq.)+H_2O(l)$

The net ionic equation becomes:

$H^+(aq.)+OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow H_2O(l)$

So, the correct option is 3.

KIM [24]

Answer : Option D) Hot and dry with low growing shrubs.

Explanation : According to the attached image of the Biome, this particular biome displays the hot and dry climatic region along with low growing shrubs. A biomes are the way to divide the largely occurring flora and fauna in a particular place on the Earth's surface. These divisions are made on the basis of climatic patterns, soil types, and the animals and plants that are found to inhabit in that area.

Calculate the area of a 3.0 inch by 5.0 inch index card in square millimeters (mm). (You can look up the formula for the area of

meriva

Answer:

The area of the given rectangular index card = 9677.4 mm²

Explanation:

Area is defined as the space occupied by a two dimensional shape or object. The SI unit of area is square metre (m²).

The area of a rectangle (A) = length (l) × width (w)

Given dimensions of the rectangle: Length (l) = 5.0 inch, Width (w) = 3.0 inch

Since, 1 inch = 25.4 millimetres (mm)

Therefore, l = 5 × 25.4 = 127 mm, and w = 3 × 25.4 = 76.2 mm

Therefore, the area of the given rectangular index card = A= l × w = 127 mm × 76.2 mm = 9677.4 mm²
