  2. Zinc chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinc_chloride

    Zinc chloride is an inorganic chemical compound with the formula ZnCl 2 ·nH 2 O, with n ranging from 0 to 4.5, forming hydrates.Zinc chloride, anhydrous and its hydrates, are colorless or white crystalline solids, and are highly soluble in water.

  3. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    Equations should be balanced according to the stoichiometry, the number of atoms of each species should be the same on both sides of the equation. This is achieved by scaling the number of involved molecules (A, B, C and D in a schematic example below) by the appropriate integers a, b, c and d .

    This is illustrated in the image here, where the balanced equation is: CH 4 (g) + 2 O 2 (g) → CO 2 (g) + 2 H 2 O (l) Here, one molecule of methane reacts with two molecules of oxygen gas to yield one molecule of carbon dioxide and two molecules of liquid water. This particular chemical equation is an example of complete combustion.

  5. Half-reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-reaction

    Note the transfer of electrons from Fe to Cl. Decomposition is also a way to simplify the balancing of a chemical equation. A chemist can atom balance and charge balance one piece of an equation at a time. For example: Fe 2+ → Fe 3+ + e − becomes 2Fe 2+ → 2Fe 3+ + 2e −; is added to Cl 2 + 2e − → 2Cl −; and finally becomes Cl 2 ...

  6. Cell notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_notation

    In electrochemistry, cell notation or cell representation is a shorthand method of expressing a reaction in an electrochemical cell.. In cell notation, the two half-cells are described by writing the formula of each individual chemical species involved in the redox reaction across the cell, with all other common ions and inert substances being ignored.

  7. Chemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_equation

    A chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactant entities are given on the left-hand side and the product entities are on the right-hand side with a plus sign between the entities in both the reactants and the products, and an arrow that points towards the products to show the direction of the reaction.

    The composition of this layer can be complex, but one constituent is probably basic zinc carbonate, Zn 5 (OH) 6 CO 3. [8] The reaction of zinc with water is slowed by this passive layer. When this layer is corroded by acids such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, the reaction proceeds with the evolution of hydrogen gas. [1] [9] Zn + 2 H ...

  9. Thermochemical equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermochemical_equation

    In thermochemistry, a thermochemical equation is a balanced chemical equation that represents the energy changes from a system to its surroundings. One such equation involves the enthalpy change, which is denoted with Δ H {\displaystyle \Delta H} In variable form, a thermochemical equation would appear similar to the following:
