Would you predict that lattice energies are always exothermic? Justify your reasoning.

Asa choose the correct set of reaction coefficients to properly balance the following chemical equation according to the law of conservation of mass: __s8 + __o2 ==> __so2 1, 1, 8 1, 8, 1 1, 8, 8 8, 1, 1

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)

Which of these statements best explains why space exploration should be encouraged? it prepares humans to live without oxygen. it dispel myths about objects in space. it prevents comets and asteroids from striking earth. it creates technology to absorb harmful radiations in space.
