In a redox reaction, how does the total number of electrons lost by the oxidized substance compare to the total number of electr

ons gained by thereduced substance?
(1) The number lost is always greater than the number gained.
(2) The number lost is always equal to the number gained.
(3) The number lost is sometimes equal to the number gained.
(4) The number lost is sometimes less than the number gained.

The answer is (2) equal to. In redox reactions, you can't just lose electrons somewhere. If an electrons is lost by one, it must be gained by another. Hence, the importance of balancing redox reactions.

Consider the following numbered processes: 1. A → 2B 2. B → C + D 3. E → 2D ΔH for the process A → 2C + E is
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

ΔH = ΔH₁ + ΔH₂ - ΔH₃

Explanation:

Given that:

1. A → 2B

2. B → C + D

3. E → 2D

Assuming from the corresponding ΔH for process 1, 2 and 3 are ΔH₁, ΔH₂, ΔH₃ respectively.

To estimate the ΔH for the process A → 2C + E

We multiply 2 with equation 2 where (B → C + D)

2B → 2C + 2D ⇒ 2ΔH₂

Also, let's switch equation (3), such that we have,

2D → E -ΔH₃

The summation of all the equation result into :

A → 2C + E

where; ΔH = ΔH₁ + ΔH₂ - ΔH₃

Which of the following is true regarding a voltaic (or galvanic) cell? a) It can only be used with hydrogen. b) It produces elec
N76 [4]

Answer:

b) It produces electrical current spontaneously.

Explanation:

Cells capable of converting chemical energy to electrical energy and vice versa are termed Electrochemical cells. There are two types of electrochemical cells viz: Galvanic or Voltaic cells and Electrolytic cells. Voltaic cell is an elctrochemical cell capable of generating electrical energy from the chemical reaction occuring in it.

The voltaic cell uses spontaneous reduction-oxidation (redox) reactions to generate ions in a half cell that causes electric currents to flow. An half cell is a part of the galvanic cell where either oxidation or reduction reaction is taking place. Hence, the spontaneous production of electric currents is true about Voltaic/Galvanic cells.

What is paper chromatography? Calculate the Rr value of a colored dye that traveled 52 mm on a chromatography strip while the so
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Paper chromatography is a basic technique of chromatography. It consist in the separation of the mixe components using a solvent.

Explanation:

Paper chromatography is a basic technique of chromatography. It consists in the separation of the mixed components using a solvent.

Paper chromatography consists of put some dot of the mix using a glass capillary into a specialized paper, generally made of cellulose, this is called a stationary phase.

Then you put this paper into a camera of glass named, chromatography camera, where previously contain a solvent. The solvent also know as a mobile phase, the type can be defined before the test and involves a study of the kind of the mix, and the compound you want to separate.

The chromatography camera has to be closed all the time during the test, and you can't move at all because the movement of the solvent can alternate the result.

Very often, the solution of the solvent is a mix of different liquid substances with different polarities.

When the stationary phase put into the camera, the solvent starts to move up over the paper, until the separation of the compounds is observable.

the Rf is a value who relates the move of the mobile phase with the move of the distance traveled by the substance tested.

To undersant the paper chromatography, you can watch the images attached.

The first is an image of the chromatography camera.

The second one is an image of a cellulose paper after the chromatography is done. You can watch the dots who indicates the traveling of the compound across the paper.

The third one can show you the evolutions of paper chromatography, from the beginning to the end.

To calculate the Rf value you have to use the equation:

Rf = distance traveled by the substance/distance traveled by the solvent/

<u>Rf = 52mm/81mm =0.64</u>

Question 2
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

1-Pentene

Explanation:

If we look at all the options listed, we will notice that the rate of reaction of bromine with each one differs significantly.

For 1-pentene, addition of bromine across the double bond is a relatively fast process. It is usually used as a test for unsaturation. Bromine water is easily decolorized by alkenes.

Cyclohexane, heptane are alkanes. They can only react with chlorine in the presence of sunlight. This is a substitution reaction. It does not occur easily. A certain quantum of light is required for the reaction to occur.

For benzene, bromine can only react with it by electrophilic substitution in which the benzene ring is retained. A Lewis acid is often required for the reaction to occur and it doesn't occur easily.
