a sample of an oxide of vanadium weighing 4.589g was reduced with hydrogen gas to form water and another oxide of vanadium weighing 3.782g.The second oxide was further reduced with hydrogen gas until 2.573g of vanadium remained. a.)what is the empirical formula of the 2 oxides b.)write down the balanced reaction equations for the two reduction reactions above. c.)calculate the total mass of water that forms during the secong reaction.
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
