How many electrons does an atom have if the atomic number is 11?

What does an-ite or-ate ending in a polvatomic ion mean?

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

An -ite or -ate ending means a polyatomic ion that includes oxygen is in the formula.

ate = one more O than -ite

Explanation:

Example:

NO2 is nitrite

NO3 is nitrate

You can see that the molecules are made of the same elements, however they have more or less of one of the elements (i.e. oxygen).

What is the [H3O+] if the [OH-] is 1 x 10 -8?

Tanzania [10]

From the calculation, the concentration of the oxonium ions is 1 * 10^-6 M

<h3>What is concentration?</h3>

The term concentration refers to the amount of substances present in the solution. There are several units that can be used to show the concertation of a substances such as moles/liter, gram per liter, parts per billion, parts per billion, percentage etc.

Now we know that water is composed of the hydrogen and the hydroxide ions and the product of the both is generally known as the ion product of water and have a value of 1 * 10^-14.

If that be the case, we are in order to write the expression;

[H3O+] [OH-] = 1 * 10^-14

[H3O+] = 1 * 10^-14/ [OH-]

[H3O+] = 1 * 10^-14/ 1 x 10^ -8

[H3O+] = 1 * 10^-6 M

Using the nernst equation calculate the cell voltage for: fe(s) + cd2+(aq) â fe2+(aq) + cd(s) when the [fe2+] = 0.10 m and [cd2+

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The Nernst equation is:

E = E° - RTlnK/nF
where
E° is the standard potential voltage
R is the universal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol·K
K is the reaction quotient
n is the number of moles electrons transferred
F is Faraday's constant = 96,500 C/mol e⁻

Let's determine K first. The overall reaction is:

Fe(s) + Cd²⁺(aq) --> Fe²⁺(aq) + Cd(s)
Accounting for aqueous phases only,
K = [products]/[reactants] = [Fe²⁺]/[Cd²⁺] = 0.10 M/1.4 M = 1/14

From the reactions written, you can see that 2 electrons were transferred. So, n = 2.

Lastly, the value for E⁰ is the sum of individual E⁰ of the reactions.
E⁰ = E⁰cathode - E⁰anode
Cathode reaction: Fe(s) --> 2e + Fe²⁺ (E⁰cathode = 0.44 V)
Anode reaction: Cd²⁺ + 2e --> Cd(s) (E⁰anode = -0.4 V)
Thus,
E⁰ = 0.44 - -0.4 = 0.84 V

Substituting the values (assume T at room temperature = 298 K),
E = 0.84 - (8.314)(298 K)(ln 1/14)/(2)(96,500)
<em>E = 0.87 V</em>

Balance the following redox reaction in basic solution. Cl â’ (aq) + MnO â’ 4 (aq) â†’ Cl 2 (g) + MnO 2 (s)

FinnZ [79.3K]

$6\; \text{Cl}^{-} \; (aq) + 2\; \text{MnO}_4^{-} \; (aq) + 4 \; \text{H}_2 \text{O} \; (l) \to 3\; \text{Cl}_2 \; (g) + 2\; \text{MnO}_2 \; (s) + 8\; \text{OH}^{-} \; (aq)$

<h3>Explanation</h3>

The oxidation state of the manganese atom $\text{Mn}$ changes from +7 as in $\text{MnO}_4^{-}$ to +4 as in $\text{MnO}_2$ .
There are one $\text{Mn}$ atom in each $\text{MnO}_4$ ion.
Reducing each $\text{MnO}_4^{-}$ ion would thus consume three electrons.

Similarly, the oxidation state of the chlorine atom $\text{Cl}$ changes from -1 as in $\text{Cl}^{-}$ to 0 as in $\text{Cl}_2$ .
It takes two $\text{Cl}^{-}$ ions to produce one $\text{Cl}_2$ molecule.
Oxidizing every two $\text{Cl}^{-}$ would thus produce one $\text{Cl}_2$ while releasing two electrons.

Three $\text{Cl}_2$ molecules contain six chlorine atoms. Three $\text{Cl}_2$ would thus correspond to six $\text{Cl}^{-}$ ions.

Combining six $\text{Cl}^{-}$ , two $\text{MnO}_4^{-}$ ions, three $\text{Cl}_2$ ions, and two $\text{MnO}_2$ would balance the changes in oxidation state.

$6\; \text{Cl}^{-} \; (aq) + 2\; \text{MnO}_4^{-} \; (aq) \to 3\; \text{Cl}_2 \; (g) + 2\; \text{MnO}_2 \; (s)$ (NOT BALANCED)

Still, the product side lacks four oxygen atoms.

In an acidic environment, oxygen atoms would combine with protons to produce water.
In a basic environment (like this one,) there are nearly no protons for oxygen atoms to combine with. Oxygen atoms will likely combine with water to produce hydroxide ions.

Each oxygen atom combine with a water molecule to produce two hydroxide ions. Adding four water molecules and eight hydroxide ions would balance the equation.
