8 0

A qualitative test for sulfate in alum crystals using ionic reactions of barium chloride (BaCl2) is given Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq) → BaSO₄(s).

<h3>What is qualitative test?</h3>

Qualitative test measures changes in color, melting point, odor, reactivity, radioactivity, boiling point, bubble production, and precipitation of the sample.

<h3>Qualitative test for sulfate in alum crystals </h3>

When an aqueous solution of a barium salt (BaCl₂) is mixed with an aqueous solution containing sulfate, a white precipitate of insoluble BaSO₄ forms according to the net ionic equation given below;

Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq) → BaSO₄(s)

Thus, a qualitative test for sulfate in alum crystals using ionic reactions of barium chloride (BaCl2) is given Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq) → BaSO₄(s).

When an alkaline earth metal, a, reacts with a halogen, x, the formula of the covalent compund formed should be a2x?

Ierofanga [76]

Alkaline earth metal are the elements present in II group in the periodic table and are known as 'Metals' and have a charge of +2.

Alkaline earth metals - Be , Mg Ca, Sr , Ba, Ra

Halogens are present in VII A group in the periodic table and are 'Non-metals' and have a charge of -1.

Halogens - F, Cl, Br, I, At

When Alkaline earth metal (metals) combine with Halogens (non-metals) the compound formed will be ionic compound and the formula of the compound will be based on the charges of the element.

When we write the formula of the ionic compound the charges of the elements get criss crossed.

For example - Mg (Alkaline earth metal) have a charge of +2 and Cl (Halogen) have a charge of -1 and when they combine to form the formula their charges get criss crossed and we will get $Mg_{1}Cl_{2}$ or $MgCl_{2}$

When an alkaline earth metal, A, reacts with a halogen, X, the formula of the Ionic compound formed should be $AX_{2}$

Zolol [24]

The answer is b since on a it says H2 but on the right side there is no H idk if you forgot to put H there so im guessing b. Have a good day

5 H2O2(aq) + 2 MnO4-(aq) + 6 H+(aq) → 2 Mn2+(aq) + 8 H2O(l) + 5 O2(g) In a titration experiment, H2O2(aq) reacts with aqueous Mn

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Oxygen in hydrogen peroxide oxidizes from -1 to 0.

Explanation:

Oxidation is the loss of electrons. The specie which is oxidized has has elevation in its oxidation state as compared in the reactant and the products.

The given reaction is shown below as:

$5 H_2O_2_{(aq)} + 2 MnO_4^-_{(aq)} + 6 H^+_{(aq)}\rightarrow 2 Mn^{2+}_{(aq)} + 8 H_2O_{(l)} + 5 O_2_{(g)}$
