Write the balanced chemical equations for c. the combination reaction between nickel metal and chlorine gas.

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the reactants and products: Nickel (Ni) and chlorine gas (Cl_2) are the reactants, and the product is nickel chloride (NiCl_2).
Write the unbalanced chemical equation: Ni + Cl_2 \(\rightarrow\) NiCl_2.
Count the number of each type of atom on both sides of the equation: On the left, there is 1 Ni and 2 Cl atoms; on the right, there is 1 Ni and 2 Cl atoms.
Check if the equation is balanced: The number of each type of atom is the same on both sides, so the equation is already balanced.
Write the balanced chemical equation: Ni + Cl_2 \(\rightarrow\) NiCl_2.

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Combination Reaction

A combination reaction, also known as a synthesis reaction, occurs when two or more reactants combine to form a single product. In this type of reaction, elements or simpler compounds react to create a more complex compound. For example, when nickel metal reacts with chlorine gas, they combine to form nickel(II) chloride.

Balancing Chemical Equations

Balancing chemical equations is essential to ensure that the law of conservation of mass is upheld, meaning the number of atoms of each element must be the same on both sides of the equation. This involves adjusting coefficients in front of the reactants and products to achieve equal numbers of each type of atom. A balanced equation accurately represents the stoichiometry of the reaction.

Chemical Symbols and Formulas

Chemical symbols and formulas are shorthand representations of elements and compounds. Each element is represented by a one- or two-letter symbol, while compounds are represented by formulas that indicate the types and numbers of atoms present. For instance, nickel is denoted as 'Ni' and chlorine as 'Cl', while the compound formed from their reaction is represented as 'NiCl2'.

Hydrogen sulfide is an impurity in natural gas that must be removed. One common removal method is called the Claus process, which relies on the reaction: 8 H2S1g2 + 4 O21g2¡S81l2 + 8 H2O1g2 Under optimal conditions the Claus process gives 98% yield of S8 from H2S. If you started with 30.0 g of H2S and 50.0 g of O2, how many grams of S8 would be produced, assuming 98% yield?
