Identify the oxidizing and reducing agents in the following: H2S(aq) + Cl2(g) -> S(s) + 2HCI (aq)

1 answer:

8 0

The oxidizing and reducing agent in the above redox reaction are hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and Chlorine (Cl) respectively.

<h3>What is an oxidizing and reducing agent?</h3>

An oxidizing agent is any substance that oxidizes, or receives electrons from another substance and as a result, becoming reduced.

On the other hand, a reducing agent is any substance that reduces or donates electrons to another and as a result becomes oxidized.

According to this reaction; H2S(aq) + Cl2(g) -> S(s) + 2HCI (aq)

H2S accepts electrons from Cl2 and becomes reduced to S
Cl2 donates electrons to H2S and becomes oxidized to HCl

Therefore, the oxidizing and reducing agent in the above redox reaction are hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and Chlorine (Cl) respectively.

The student placed 10 mL of PbCl2 (saturated solution) in the test tube and added a pinch of NaCl. A white precipitate of PbCl2

NNADVOKAT [17]

PbCl₂(aq) → Pb²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

NaCl(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

Pb²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq) ⇄ PbCl₂(s)

At increase the concentration of chloride ions - concentration of lead ions decreases, the lead chloride is formed.

The key enzyme in the regulation of the citric acid cycle is:.

bixtya [17]

The key enzyme in the regulation of the citric acid cycle is citrate synthase. It functions in the mitochondria.

<h3>Citrate synthase and cellular respiration </h3>

Cellular respiration is a series of reactions that produce ATP by using the energy stores in the chemical bonds of foods.

Cellular respiration is divided into glycolysis, the citric-acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation.

Citrate synthase is an enzyme found in the mitochondrial matrix, which is involved in the citric acid cycle.

A 100.0 ml sample of 0.18 m hclo4 is titrated with 0.27 m lioh. determine the ph of the solution before the addition of any lioh

snow_lady [41]

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. Below is the solution:

<span>moles HClO4 = 0.100 L x 0.18 M = 0.018
moles LiOH = 0.030 L x 0.27 = 0.0081
moles H+ in excess = 0.018 - 0.0081 = 0.0099
total volume = 0.130 L
[H+] = 0.0099/ 0.130= 0.0762 M
pH = 1.12</span>
