ANSWER

EXPLANATION

Given that

The energy released by the system is 12.4J

Work done on the surrounding is 4.2J

Follow the steps below to find the change in energy

In the given data, energy is said to be released to the surroundings

Recall, that exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which heat is released to the surroundings. Hence, change in enthalpy is negative

Step 1; Write the formula for calculating change in energy

\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ q }+\text{ w}

Since heat is released to the surrounding, then q = -12J

Recall, that work done by the system on the surroundings is always negative

Hence, w = -4.2J

Step 2; Substitute the given data into the formula in step 1

\begin{gathered} \text{  }\Delta E\text{ = q + w} \\ \text{  }\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ -12.4 }+\text{ \lparen-4.2\rparen} \\ \text{  }\Delta E\text{ = -12.4 - 4.2} \\ \text{  }\Delta E\text{ }=\text{ -16.6J} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the change i

The pipet used for transferring the pickle juice to the flask was dirty and consequentially some of the pickle juice stuck to th
lesya [120]

Explanation:

Since, some of the given sample is stuck inside and behind the pipet. Hence, there will occur a decrease in the percent of acetic acid.

This is because a decrease in concentration of the acid will also lead to a decrease in the amount of sample taken for the estimation. Since. lesser is the amount or concentration present lesser will be its analyte concentration.

For example, we took 10 mg of a pickel sample but 3 mg of the sample remain stuck in the pipet. This means we actually titrating a  sample less than 10 mg.

Therefore, the analyte concentration in the pickel will also be less.

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)}

Manganese in MnO_4^- has oxidation state of +7

Manganese in Mn^{2+} has an oxidation state of +2

It reduces from +7 to +2

Oxygen in hydrogen peroxide has an oxidation state of -1.

Oxygen in molecular oxygen has an oxidation of 0.

Thus, oxygen in hydrogen peroxide oxidizes from -1 to 0.
