According to law of definite proportion, for a compound, elements always combine in fixed ratio by mass.
The formula of compound remains the same, let it be a_{x}b_{y} where, a and b are two different elements.
Since, the ratio of mass remains the same , calculate the ratio of masses of element a and b in both cases
\frac{a}{b}=\frac{15}{35}=\frac{10}{y}
rearranging,
y=\frac{10\times 35}{15}=23.3
Thus, mass of b produced will be 23.3 g.
Aluminum has a chemical formula of Al, while diatomic bromine has a chemical formula of Br₂. The balanced chemical reaction is shown below:
<em>2 Al (s) + 3 Br₂ (l) → 2 AlBr₃ (s)</em>
The solid product is called Dibromoaluminum. The stoichiometric coefficients are used to balance the reaction to obey the Law of Conservation of Mass.
helium
has the most neutrons in the nucleus
the oxidation states of the elements before and after the reaction is;
Pb oxidation state changes from 0 to +2
SO₄²⁻ ion there's no change in the oxidation state during the reaction
Au oxidation state changes from +3 to 0
reduction reactions are when there's a decrease in the oxidation state of the species
oxidation reactions are when theres an increase in the oxidation state of the species
the element where there's a decrease in oxidation state is Au.
Therefore Au gets reduced.
answer is B) Au
