The balanced equation for the redox reaction, which takes place in a basic solution is:

2 Cr(OH)₃ + ClO₃⁻ (aq) + 4 OH⁻ → 2 CrO₄²⁻ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq) + 5 H₂O; <u>option C</u>

<h3>What is the balanced equation for the redox reaction?</h3>

A balanced equation for a redox reaction is one in which the electrons transferred are balanced and the atoms involved in the reaction are also balanced.

To balance redox reactions in a basic solution, OH⁻ ions and H₂O are placed on appropriate sides of the reaction.

Considering the given reaction:

Cr(OH)₃ + ClO₃⁻ (aq) → CrO₄²⁻ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq):

The balanced equation will be:

2 Cr(OH)₃ + ClO₃⁻ (aq) + 4 OH⁻ → 2 CrO₄²⁻ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq) + 5 H₂O

The electrons transferred and the atoms involved are balanced.

Answer:

This is an example of a food chain

Explanation:

Think of it as a chain reaction. The grass feeds and nourishes the prairie dog. Upon eating the prairie dog, the coyote gets the nutrients from both the grass the prairie dog ate and from the prairie dog itself.

Which is the best practice recommended in the safety video to mix and acid or a base with a solvent?

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Never pour water into acid but acid into water

Explanation:

If water is poured into extremely concentrated acid/bases, the rate of volatility and exothermic reaction is too rapid and might cause a chemical eruption, leading to acid burns.

Safety precautions hence dictate the reverse is practiced.

I believe this is a clear answer.

Hydrogen iodide, HI, is formed in an equilibrium reaction when gaseous hydrogen and iodine gas are heated together. If 20.0 g of

Kaylis [27]

Answer: D. 19.9 g hydrogen remains.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}$

a) moles of $H_2$

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{20.0g}{2g/mol}=10.0moles$

b) moles of $I_2$

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{20.0g}{254g/mol}=0.0787moles$

$H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(g)$

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of $I_2$ require 1 mole of $H_2$

Thus 0.0787 moles of $l_2$ require= $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0787=0.0787moles$ of $H_2$

Thus $l_2$ is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and $H_2$ acts as the excess reagent. (10.0-0.0787)= 9.92 moles of $H_2$ are left unreacted.

Mass of $H_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=9.92moles\times 2.01g/mol=19.9g$

Thus 19.9 g of $H_2$ remains unreacted.
