Well basically, light is released when an excited electron returns to a lower energy state. Visible Light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and is a kind of radiation emitted.

Why does Hess's law allow you to determine the enthalpy change of a<br> reaction?
lana [24]

Enthalpy is a state function

Explanation:

The Hess's law allows us to determine the enthalpy change of a reaction because enthalpy is a state function. It does not depend on the individual path take in going from reactants to products in the reaction.

  • Enthalpy changes are the heat changes accompanying physical and chemical changes.
  • It is the difference between the heat content of product in the final state and the reactants.
  • Enthalpy changes for some reactions are not easily measurable experimentally.
  • To calculate such heat changes, we apply the Hess's law of heat summation.
  • The law states that "the heat change of a reaction is the same whether it occurs in a step or several steps".
  • The Hess's law is simply based on the first law of thermodynamics by which we know that energy is conserved in every system.

Balance each of the following redox reactions occurring in basic solution.MnO−4(aq)+Br−(aq)→MnO2(s)+BrO−3(aq)Express your answer
Ahat [919]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation is,

2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)

Explanation :

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in basic solution are :

  • First we have to write into the two half-reactions.
  • Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.
  • Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.
  • If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the more number of oxygen are present.
  • If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydroxide ion (OH^-) at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.
  • Now balance the charge.

The half reactions in the basic solution are :

Reduction : MnO_4^-(aq)+2H_2O(l)+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2(s)+4OH^-(aq) ......(1)

Oxidation : Br^-(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+6e^-  .......(2)

Now multiply the equation (1) by 2 and then added both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

The balanced chemical equation in a basic solution will be,

2MnO_4^-(aq)+Br^-(aq)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2MnO_2(s)+BrO_3^-(aq)+2OH^-(aq)
