Answer: Sodium also floats on the surface, but enough heat is given off to melt the sodium (sodium has a lower melting point than lithium and the reaction produces heat faster) and it melts almost at once to form a small silvery ball that dashes around the surface.
Explanation:
When water reaches its boiling point and turns into water vapor, the molecular structure of water remains the same. It is only the state of the substance that is changed in this process. I hope this helps you
Answer:
Reaction 5: Decomposition reaction.
Reaction 6: Single replacement reaction
Reaction 7: Combination reaction.
Reaction 8: Combustion reaction.
Explanation:
<u><em>Reaction 5:</em></u> 2KClO₃ → 2KCl + 3O₂.
- It is a decomposition reaction.
- A decomposition reaction is a type of chemical reaction in which a single compound breaks down into two or more elements or new compounds.
- In this reaction: potassium chlorate decomposes into two single components (potassium chloride and oxygen).
- So, it is a decomposition reaction.
<u><em>Reaction 6:</em></u> Zn + 2HCl → H₂ + ZnCl₂.
- It is a single replacement reaction.
- A single-replacement reaction, a single-displacement reaction, is a reaction by which one (or more) element(s) replaces an/other element(s) in a compound.
- It is most often occur if element is more reactive than the other, thus giving a more stable product.
- In this reaction, zinc metal (more active) displaces the hydrogen to form hydrogen gas and zinc chloride, a salt. Zinc reacts quickly with the acid to form bubbles of hydrogen.
<u><em>Reaction 7:</em></u> N₂O₅ + H₂O → 2HNO₃.
- It is a combination "synthesis" reaction.
- A synthesis reaction has two or more reactants and only one product.
- In this reaction, dinitrogen pentoxide reacts with water to produce nitric acid.
- So, it is considered as a synthetic "combination" reaction.
<u><em>Reaction 8:</em></u> 2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O.
- It is a combustion reaction.
- A combustion reaction is a reaction where hydrocarbon alkane is completely burned in oxygen to produce water and carbon dioxide.
- In this reaction 1.0 mole of ethane is burned to give 4.0 moles of carbon dioxide and 6.0 moles of water.
- So, it is considered as a combustion reaction.
0.843 moles would be the answer
A mineral occurs naturally, meaning that even though there are artificial substances that might be described as mineral-like they are not minerals
