Identify the element oxidized, the element reduced, the oxidizing agent, and the reducing agent for the following equation

Chemistry

bazaltina [42]3 years ago
4 0

The element that gains electrons, becomes reduced.

While the one which loses electrons, becomes oxidized.

In this equation,

CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻---- --> CH₂O + Cr³⁺.

By balancing the equation, we will get:

3CH₃OH + Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 8H⁺ --> 3CH₂O + 2Cr³⁺ + 7H₂O

Here the oxidation state of Cr changes from +6 to +3 that is it is being reduced thus serving as a oxidizing agent while other element retain their charges.

Here Cr₂O₇²⁻ is reduced while CH₃OH is oxidized.

So Cr₂O₇²⁻ serves as a oxidizing agent, while CH₃OH serves as reducing agent .

Which statement best explains why calcium has a larger atomic radius than magnesium? A. Calcium has a stronger nuclear charge th
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. calcium has electrons in more energy levels than magnesium

Explanation:

atoms are made of three types of subatomic particles - electrons, protons and neutrons.

Neutrons and protons reside in the nucleus of the atom and electrons reside in energy shells

electronic configuration for both Ca and Mg are as follows

Mg - 2,8,2

Ca - 2,8,8,2

outermost energy shell of Mg with electrons is the third energy level

whereas outermost energy shell of Ca with electrons is the fourth energy shell

therefore Ca has a larger atomic radius than Mg as it has one more energy shell than Mg in which electrons reside
