Answer:
The O is being oxidized, but at the same time, is being reducted.
Explanation:
H₂O₂(l) + ClO₂(aq) → ClO₂(aq) + O₂(g)
In this reaction, we have 4 compounds:
Hydrogen peroxide
Chlorine dioxide (twice)
Oxygen
In both dioxide, the Cl acts with +4 in oxidation state; the oxygen acts with -2.
Oxgen in ground state has 0, as oxidation number.
In peroxide, the H acts with +1 but the oxygen acts with -1.
Peroxide is making the oxidation number from the O in the ClO₂, to decrease (reduction) and to increase in the O, at the ground state.
Hydrogen peroxide is a good reducing and oxidizing agent at the same time.
Answer:
Products have a lower total Gibbs free energy in comparison with the reagents total Gibbs free energy.
Explanation:
Hello,
Exergonic chemical reactions are those that the overall Gibbs free energy is negative, it means that the products have a lower total Gibbs free energy, turning out into a spontaneous chemical reaction. Such reactions are thermodynamically possible under standard conditions and they usually release heat.
Best regards.
<span>The balloons volume as it
rises increases because at higher altitude external pressure is lower, so the
air molecules inside the balloons tends to expand more to attain mechanical
equilibrium, where the external pressure and internal pressure are equal. Unlike
when the balloon is on the ground, external pressure is great so the gas
molecule cannot push the walls of the balloon so it is like underinflated.</span>
Aluminium isn’t a compound as it is an element
