Which half-reaction correctly represents oxidation?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Leokris [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Mg\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2e^- represents oxidation.

Explanation:

Oxidation-reduction reaction or redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases.

Example: Mg\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2e^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced.

Example: Mg^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Mg

Mg\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2e^- represents oxidation.

A 3 L pocket of air at sea level has a pressure of 100 atm. Suppose the air pockets rise in the atmosphere to a certain height a
liraira [26]

Answer:

30 atm

Explanation:

Initial Volume, V1 = 3L

Initial Pressure, P1 = 100 atm

Final Volume V2 = 10 L

Final Pressure, P2 = ?

These quantities are related by the Boyle's law equation which is given as;

V1P1 = V2P2

P2 = V1 * P1  /  V2

P2 = 3 * 100 / 10

P2 = 30 atm

Explain why the solutions of SbCl3(aq) in our lab also contain HCl. Why would adding a few drops of this solution to 300 mL of w
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

SbCl₃ reacts with water to form slightly soluble antimony oxychloride.

SbCl₃(aq) +H₂O(ℓ) ⇌ SbOCl(s) + 2HCl(aq)

Your observation is an example of Le Châtelier's Principle in action,

The SbCl₃(aq) in your lab has enough HCl added to push the position of equilibrium to the left and keep the SbOCl in solution.

If a few drops of the SbCl₃(aq) were added to 300 mL of water, the solution would turn cloudy. The HCl would be so dilute that the position of equilibrium would lie to the right, and a cloudy precipitate of antimony oxychloride would form.

A 4.000 g sample of iron was heated from 0.0°C to 21.0°C. If it has a specific heat of 0.440 kJ/kg °C, how many kilojoules of he
Mashutka [201]
M = 4 g = 4/1000 kg = 0.004 kg, θ₂ = 21.0°C, θ₁ = 0°C , c = 0.44kJ/kg°C,

Q = mc(θ₂ - θ₁)

Q = 0.004*0.440*(21 - 0)

Q  =  0.03696 kJ

A chemist combines ethane and chlorine with the goal of producing chloroethane which other product could be reasonably expected
lesya692 [45]
<span>So when the chemist combines Ethane (CH3CH3) and Chlorine (Cl2) with the intention of producing Chloroethane (CH3CH2Cl), the other product that's formed in this reaction is 1,2-dichloroethane (ClCH2CH2Cl) also called as Ethylene dichloride with molecular weight of 98.954 g/mol. This is a colorless oily flammable substance that weighs heaver when vaporized.</span>
