Identify the oxidizing and reducing agents in this reaction: Cr2O3(s) + 2Al(s) 2Cr(s) + Al2O3(s)

Chemistry

DiKsa [7]3 years ago

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)

Given that the ka for hocl is 3.5 × 10–8, calculate the k value for the reaction of hocl with oh–.
Harlamova29_29 [7]
Following reaction is involved in above system
HOCl(aq)  ↔  H+(aq) + OCl-<span>(aq)
</span>OCl-(aq) + H2O(l)  ↔ HOCl(aq) + OH-<span>(aq)
</span>
Now, if the system is obeys 1st order kinetics we have
K  = [OCl-][H+<span>]/[HOCl]   ............. (1)
</span>∴ [HOCl-] / [OCl-] = [H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>)   ............. (2)
</span>
and now considering that system is obeying 2nd order kinetics, we have
K  = [OH-][HOCl-] / [OCl-] ................. (3<span>)
</span>Subs 2 in 3 we get
K = [OH-][H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>)
</span>we know that, [OH-][H+] = 10<span>-14

</span>∴K = 3.3 * 10<span>-7
</span>
Thus, correct answer is e i.e none of these

Fill in the blanks: Electrons are ___ in an ionic bond, whereas they are___ in a polar covalent bond, and ___ in a nonpolar cova
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "transferred; unequally shared; equally shared".

Explanation:

Ionic bonding occurs when a positively charged atom (cation) interacts with a negatively charged atom (anion). In ionic bonding, the cation transfers its electron to the anion. In polar covalent bonding, electrons are unequally shared. This means that the electrons spend more time in an atom than the other, which gives partial positive and negative charges to the atoms. On the other hand in nonpolar covalent bonding, the electrons are equally shared and no charges are created.

Calculate the bond energy per mole for breaking all the bonds in methane, CH4. Express your answer to four significant figures a
lesantik [10]

The energy that is essential to break one C-H bond is 414 kJ/mol. Since, there are four C-H bonds in CH4, the energy Δ HCH4 for breaking all the bonds is calculated as Δ HCH4 = 4 x bond energy of C-H bond. By multiplying the 4 with the 414 kJ/mol you can get the answer of 1656 kJ/mol CH4 molecules.
