We will get Plagioclase as phenocryst in a porphyritic basalt using Bowmen's reaction series.

Porphyritic basalt is mafic i.e. it has low silica content and have higher melting point than felsic which have higher silica content . Porphyritic basalt's mineral composition is Calcium Plagioclase . Phenocryst is large crystal , early forming igneous rock.

Thus , on cooling plagioclase will be seen as phenocryst which is clear from Bowmen's reaction series because it is present on right side of series at higher temperature range in continuous branch in mafic region.

Determine the energy in joules of a photon whose frequency is 3.55 x10^17 hz

zaharov [31]

The equation for energy of a photon is E=hv where v equals frequency and h equals the Planck constant (6.626X10^-34). So since you've been given frequency you can just plug in frequency to find the total energy in joules.

E=(3.55X10^17)(6.626X10^-34)
E=2.35223X10^-16

Not sure how many significant figures you needed. Hope this helped.

Answer : The only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Explanation :

Disproportionation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction reaction. It is a redox reaction.

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

(A) The given balanced reaction is,

$H_2SeO_4(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)+2H^+(aq)\rightarrow H_2SeO_3(aq)+Cl_2(g)+H_2O(l)$

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which chlorine shows oxidation and selenium shows reduction.

(B) The given balanced reaction is,

$S_8(s)+8O_2(g)\rightarrow 8SO_2(g)$

This reaction is a redox reaction but not disproportionation reaction because in this reaction there are two reactants in which sulfur shows oxidation and oxygen shows reduction.

(C) The given balanced reaction is,

$3Br_2(aq)+6OH^-(aq)\rightarrow 5Br^-(aq)+BrO_3^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)$

This reaction is a disproportionation reaction because in this reaction only one reactant bromine that shows both oxidation and reduction reaction.

(D) The given balanced reaction is,

$Ca^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow CaSO_4(s)$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of calcium and sulfate.

(E) The given balanced reaction is,

$PtCl_4(s)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PtCl_6^{2-}(aq)$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactant react to give a single product. There is no changes in the oxidation state of platinum and chlorine.

Hence, the only reaction (C) that shows that the same reactant undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Hydrogen peroxide can be prepared by the reaction of barium peroxide with sulfuric acid according to the reaction BaO2(s)+H2SO4(

Vesna [10]

Answer:

VH2SO4 = 145.3 mL

Explanation:

Mw BaO2 = 169.33 g/mol

⇒ mol BaO2 = 53.5g * ( mol BaO2 / 169.33 g BaO2) = 0.545 mol BaO2

⇒according to the reaction:

mol BaO2 = mol H2SO4 = 0.545 mol

⇒ V H2SO4 = 0.545 mol H2SO4 * ( L H2SO4 / 3.75 mol H2SO4 )

⇒V H2SO4 = 0.1453 L (145.3 mL)
