In this reaction, Cr2O3 is the oxidizing agent which will oxidize Al to Al2O3.

Al is the reducing agent that will reduce Cr2O3 to Cr.

An oxidizing agent has the property of oxidizing another molecule (giving it one or more oxygen atoms) by being reduced.

A reducing agent has the property of reducing another molecule (by removing one or more oxygen molecules) by being oxidized.

Cr2O3+ 2Al -----------> 2Cr+ Al2O3

Cr2O3--------2Cr.
( oxidation no. of cr +3 to +1 means hain of electron so it act as oxidizing agent)

similarly,

2Al------> Al2O3
( oxidation no. of Al +1 to +3 means loss of electron so it act as reducing agent)

The solubility of acetanilide is 12.8 g in 100 mL of ethanol at 0 ∘C, and 46.4 g in 100 mL of ethanol at 60 ∘C. What is the maxi

weqwewe [10]

Answer: 72.41% and 26.90% respectively.

Explanation:

At 60°C, you can dissolve 46.4g of acetanilide in 100mL of ethanol. If you lower the temperature, at 0°C, you can dissolve just 12.8g, which means (46.4g-12.8g)=33.6g of acetanilide must have precipitated from the solution.

We can calculate recovery as:

$\%R=\frac{crystalized\ mass}{initial\ mass}*100 =\frac{33.6\ g}{46.4\ g}*100=72.41\%$

So the answer to the first question is 72.41%.

For the second part just use the same formula, the mass of the precipitate is the final mass minus the initial mass, (171mg-125mg)=46mg.

$\%R=\frac{crystalized\ mass}{initial\ mass}*100 =\frac{46\ mg}{171\ mg}*100=26.90\%$

So the answer to the second question is 26.90%.

melomori [17]

Answer:

Main job of golgi bodies is to sort and package proteins and other substances in a plant cell.

Explanation:

Golgi bodies are also called post office of the cell because it modify and distribute proteins for the cell. First, proteins are made in the organelle of the cell i. e. endoplasmic reticulum. From here, it is send to the Golgi apparatus for modification. Golgi bodies add some special structures with the protein and this protein leaves golgi bodies which is used by the cell where it is needed.

Percentage Yield

= (3.37g/3.81g) * 100% = 88.45%.

Therefore 88.45% SO2 is the percentage yield.
