Balance the following skeleton reactions and identify the oxidizing and reducing agents:(b) P₄(s) → HPO₃²⁻(aq) + PH₃(g) [acidic]

The balanced chemical equation is :

5P₄ + 36OH → 12HPO₃⁻² (aq) + 8PH₃ (acidic)

Here the oxidation number of P changed from 0 to -3 in PH₃ and increases  from 0 to +3 in HPO₃⁻². When P₄ changes to PH₃ reduction reaction is taking place as there is addition of hydrogen and when P₄ changes to HPO₃⁻² oxidation takes place as there is addition of oxygen.

Thus clearly both reduction and oxidation are taking place.

Thus, we can infer that here P₄ is both oxidizing as well as reducing agent.

10 atoms of aluminum reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen gas to produce aluminum oxide. 4 Al + 3 O2 ––> 2 Al2O3 What is the exc
Mrrafil [7]

The excess reactant is Aluminum.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have to write the balanced equation as,

4 Al+ 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃

According to the molar ratio 4: 3, from the given balanced equation, we can say that 4 atoms of Al reacted with 3 molecules of oxygen.

Given that 10 atoms of aluminum reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen, as per the ratio only 8 atoms of Aluminum is required to react with 6 molecules of oxygen, so excess reactant is Aluminum.

Answer:

Option A.

Lower air pressure results in a lower boiling point

Explanation:

This is because in an open system, the lower the pressure the lesser the energy that will be required for boiling point. The is little or no collision of air molecules with the surface of the liquid

But if there is increase in pressure, more energy will be required to get to boiling point because there will be strong collision between air molecules and surface of the liquid.

A 13.00 g sample of citric acid reacts with an excess of baking soda What is the theoretical yield of carbon dioxide
viva [34]

Answer:

8.934 g

Step-by-step explanation:

We know we will need a balanced equation with masses and molar masses, so let’s gather all the information in one place.  

M_r:        192.12                                                                   44.01

            H₃C₆H₅O₇ + 3NaHCO₃ ⟶ Na₃C₆H₅O₇ + 3H₂O + 3CO₂

m/g:        13.00

For ease of writing, let's write H₃C₆H₅O₇ as H₃Cit.

(a) Calculate the <em>moles of H₃Cit </em>

n = 13.00 g  × (1 mol H₃Cit /192.12 g H₃Cit)

n = 0.067 67 mol H₃Cit

(b) Calculate the <em>moles of CO₂ </em>

The molar ratio is (3 mol CO₂/1 mol H₃Cit)

n = 0.067 67 mol H₃Cit × (3 mol CO₂/1 mol H₃Cit)

n = 0.2030 mol CO₂

(c) Calculate the <em>mass of CO₂ </em>

m = 0.2030 mol CO₂ × (44.01 g CO₂/1 mol CO₂)

m = 8.934 g CO₂
