When a strip of magnesium metal is placed in an aqueous solution of copper(II) nitrate, elemental copper coats the surface of the magnesium strip and aqueous magnesium nitrate forms. 1. As a reactant, what is the charge on copper?
2. As a product, what is the charge on copper?

1. 2+ ().

2. 0 ().

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the described chemical reaction is a redox reaction in fact, since the oxidation states of both magnesium and copper change as shown due to the displacement:

Therefore:

1. Since copper is the cation in the copper (II) nitrate, the (II) means that its charge is 2+ ().

2. Since copper is alone, it means no electrons are being neither shared not given, its charge is 0 ().

Best regards.

answer: a tank of height h is filled with water and sits on the ground. water squirts from a hole at a height y above the ground and has a range r. for two y values, 0 and h, r is zero. determine the value of y for which the range will be a maximum.

question: ray weighs 100 kilograms, his wrestling partner, bobby, weighs 50 kilograms. if ray moves at 4 m s , how fast will bobby have to run at him to apply an equal amount of kinetic energy?

answer: 8 m/s he needs to run twice as fast to keep up so he has some work to do

explanation:   if the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.
