Answer: The balanced equation is
Au(s) + 3HNO3(aq) + 4HCl(aq) ---> HAuCl4(aq) + 3NO2(g) +3H2O(l)
The function of HCl in a solution of Aqua regia, that is used to dissolve gold is to dissolve other metals like quartz or iron stone that surround the gold.
Explanation: To balance the equation, we check the ratio of each element in the reacting side and the product side ( left and right hand side). Let their ratio be equal be adding moles to the compound of the element or the element it's self in either side of the equation.
HCl which is called hydrochloric acid, is an acid that does not react with gold, but it react with every other substance, like your skin, metals etc. it is used to clean a gold, by dipping the gold inside it, all the metals on the surface of the gold will dissolve.
When dissolving a gold in aqua regia solution, HCL is added to prepare this solution because it will help to dissolve all other substance on the surface of the gold.
Answer:
-10778.95 J heat must be removed in order to form the ice at 15 °C.
Explanation:
Given data:
mass of steam = 25 g
Initial temperature = 118 °C
Final temperature = 15 °C
Heat released = ?
Solution:
Formula:
q = m . c . ΔT
we know that specific heat of water is 4.186 J/g.°C
ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature
ΔT = 15 °C - 118 °C
ΔT = -103 °C
now we will put the values in formula
q = m . c . ΔT
q = 25 g × 4.186 J/g.°C × -103 °C
q = -10778.95 J
so, -10778.95 J heat must be removed in order to form the ice at 15 °C.
Answer:
Volume of the calcium hydroxide solution used is 0.0235 mL.
Explanation:

Moles of KHP = 
According to reaction, 2 moles of KHP with 1 mole of calcium hydroxide , then 0.0330 moles of KHP will recat with ;
of calcium hydroxide
Molarity of the calcium hydroxide solution = 0.703 M
Volume of calcium hydroxide solution = V



Volume of the calcium hydroxide solution used is 0.0235 mL.
Answer: The molecular formula will be 
Explanation:
If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.
So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.
Mass of C= 70.6 g
Mass of H = 5.9 g
Mass of O = 23.5 g
Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.
Moles of C =
Moles of H =
Moles of O =
Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.
For C = 
For H = 
For O =
The ratio of C : H: O= 4: 4:1
Hence the empirical formula is 
The empirical weight of
= 4(12)+4(1)+1(16)= 68g.
The molecular weight = 136 g/mole
Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

The molecular formula will be=
Isoelectronic means equal number of electrons.
O+ is formed when the atom of O loses 1 electron.
The number of electrons of neutral O atom equals its number of protons.
Number of protons identifies the atomic number and position of the element in the periodic table.
The positon of O in the periodic table is A = 8, so it has 8 electrons and O+ has 8 - 1 = 7 electrons.
The neutral atom with one electron less than O is of the element to the left of O in the periodic table (A = 7). That element is N.
Therefore, the neutral atom isoelectronic with O+ is N (both have 7 electrons).
