Answer:
mass gives the mass of atoms while molecular weight gives the mass of molecules
The SI unit for volume is cubic meters of M^3
Answer:
Atoms start out with the same number of negative charges (electrons), and positive charges (protons). ... Conversely, adding electrons to an atom would result in a negative ion. If you do this enough times, you can make an object positive or negative. Friction is one of the ways to separate charge.
Explanation:
First determine the formal oxidation numbers:
N changes from +2 to +5 going from NO to (NO3)- O remains -2 the whole time Cr changes from +6 to +3
Now write the half reactions, balance the oxygens with the required number of waters and then balance the hydrogens with the required number of protons:
Oxidation half reaction:
NO(aq) + 2 H2O(l) ---> (NO3)-(aq) + 4 H+(aq) + 3 e-
Reduction half reaction:
(Cr2O7)2-(aq) + 14 H+(aq) + 6 e- ---> 2 Cr3+(aq) + 7 H2O(l)
Now balance the number of electrons on both sides and add them together:
2 NO(aq) + 4 H2O(l) ---> 2 (NO3)-(aq) + 8 H+(aq) + 6 e- (Cr2O7)2-(aq) + 14 H+(aq) + 6 e- ---> 2 Cr3+(aq) + 7 H2O(l) --------------------------------------... 2 NO(aq) + (Cr2O7)2-(aq) + 6 H+(aq) ---> 2 (NO3)-(aq) + 2 Cr3+(aq) + 3 H2O(l)
Notice that the charge is the same in both sides, which is an indication that the redox equation has been balanced correctly:
-2 + 6 = -2 + 2(+3) +4 = +4
