2HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
Equalization of chemical reactions can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:
- 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c, etc.
- 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index (subscript) between reactant and product
- 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1
Reaction
HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)
1. give equation
aHCl(aq) + bZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + cH₂S(g)
2. make an equation
H, left=a, right=2c⇒a=2c(eq 1)
Cl, left=a, right=2⇒a=2⇒c=1(from eq 1)
Zn, left=b, right=1⇒b=1
So the equation :
2HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)
your answer would be C hope this helps
Particles in a gas are far apart compared to a solid or liquid, allowing it not to have a definitive shape or volume. This also means that gases can fill any container and be easily compressed.
The test for this is fairly simple.
We take a glowing match or splint near the gas sample, if the glow intensifies, oxygen is present.
If a lit splint or match goes out with a popping sound, this means that hydrogen is present.
Answer:
Lewis acid is a substance that donates a lone-pair of electrons.
Explanation:
What is said in the statement corresponds to a Lewis base, not an acid. For example, NH3 is a Lewis base, since it is capable of donating its pair of electrons. Trimethylborane (Me3B) is a Lewis acid, since it is capable of accepting a solitary pair.
