question 94

Multiple Choice

When zinc metal is placed into a copper(II) nitrate solution, a single-displacement reaction occurs.Write a balanced equation to describe this reaction.

• A)2Zn(s) + Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) \(\rightarrow\) 2Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + Cu(s)
• B)Zn(s) + Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) \(\rightarrow\) ZnNO₃(aq) + CuNO₃(aq)
• C)Zn(s) + Cu₂NO₃(aq) \(\rightarrow\) ZnNO₃(aq) + Cu(aq)
• D)Zn(s) + Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) \(\rightarrow\) Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + Cu(s)
• E)Zn(s) + Cu₂NO₃(aq) \(\rightarrow\)ZnNO₃(aq) + 2Cu(aq)

Definitions:

Isokinetic

Referring to a type of muscle contraction in which the muscle shortens at a constant rate, often used in physical therapy and exercise testing.

Isotonic

Describes a solution having the same osmotic pressure as some other solution, particularly that of a cell's cytoplasm, or refers to muscular contraction where muscle length changes while tension remains constant.

Isometric

Pertains to exercises or muscle contractions where the muscle length does not change, and no visible movement occurs, typically used to build strength and stability.

Anaerobic

Relating to processes or organisms that occur or can exist in the absence of oxygen.
