Answer:C_{1}H_{2}

Explanation:

take gram & convert to mol (using the mm of the element) ,

85.6g C \frac{1 mol }{12.01g} = 7.12          14.4g H\frac{1 mol}{1.01g}  =14.2 then take the smallest number & divide  7.12/7.12 =1  14.2/7.12= 2. since the numbers are in whole numbers the answer is C_{1}H_{2}.

Which of the following is an essential condition for a redox reaction?
Alborosie
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C.The oxidation state of all the atoms should change.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A redox reaction which is oxidation-reduction reaction is a type of chemical reaction that involves a transfer of electrons between two species.
  • An oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a molecule, atom, or ion changes by gaining or losing an electron.
  • In a redox reaction, the total number of electrons lost by the reducing agent must be equal to the number of electrons gained by the oxidizing agent.

HELPP!<br> how many grams are in 1.50 x 10(24) atoms of copper?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

2266g

Explanation:

mass = no.of molecules /6.o23*1o(23) * molar mass

molar mass of co2= 44g /mol

1.5 .10^25/6.023 .10^23 =51.5 moles of co2

51.5 .44g/mol =2266 g

What is the correct ionic formula when mg2+ and p3− react?
Mumz [18]

Answer: Ionic formula will be Mg_3P_2.

Explanation: Mg^{2+} and P^{3-} ions will form a ionic compound. Ionic compounds have both metals and non-metals.

Here Mg^{2+} is a metal and P^{3-} is a non-metal.

The net charge on any compound must be 0.

So we need 2 phosphate ions to balance the charge on Mg^{2+} ions. Similarly we need 3 Magnesium ions to balance the charge on P^{3-} ions.

Criss-crossing the charges, we will get the formula as Mg_3P_2

Criss-crossing is shown in the image below.
