Answer:
Zn(OH)₂
<em>Explanation:
</em>
Zn is above Fe in the activity series, so it is more readily oxidized:
Zn(s) ⟶ Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻
The zinc ions go into solution.
The electrons travel from the Zn to the surface of the iron nail, where they reduce the water to hydrogen and hydroxide ions.
2H₂O(ℓ) + 2e⁻ ⟶ H₂(g) + 2OH⁻(aq)
Neither the zinc ions nor the hydroxide ions can move far through the gel.
Their concentration builds up around the hail. The ions find each other and form a precipitate.
Zn²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) ⟶ Zn(OH)₂(s)
Answer:
Positron emission
Explanation:
Positron emission involves the conversion of a proton to a neutron. This process increases the mass number of the daughter nucleus by 1 while its atomic number remains the same. The new neutron increases the number of neutrons present in the daughter nucleus hence the process increases the N/P ratio.
A positron is usually ejected in the process together with an anti-neutrino to balance the spins.
How many times has it halved?
24/2 = 12
12/2 = 6
6/2 = 3
It halved three times.
It halves once every 6 hours.
18 hours have passed.
This is a type of metathesis reaction, also referred to as double-displacement reactions. In this reaction, the solvent and electrolyte is water, and they are driven by the formation of the non-electrolytic product. Therefore, the driving force behind the neutralization reaction between HCl and NaOH is the formation of sodium chloride, NaCl.
We can solve this without a concrete formula through dimensional analysis. This works by manipulating the units such that you end up with the unit of the final answer. Manipulate them by cancelling units that appear both in the numerator and denominator side. As a result, we must be left with the units of g. The current in A or amperes is equivalent to amount of Coulombs per second. Since this involves Coulombs, we will use the Faraday's constant which is 96,500 C/mol electron. The reaction is:
Cr³⁺(aq) + 3e⁻ --> Cr(s)
This means that for every 3 moles of electron transferred, 1 mole of Chromium metal is plated. The molar mass of Cr: 52 g/mol. The solution is as follows:
Mass of Chromium metal = (8 C/s)(60 s/1 min)(160 min)(1 mol e⁻/96,500 C)(1 mol Cr/3 mol e)(52 g/mol)
<em>Mass of Chromium metal = 13.79 g</em>
