Answer: True

The alcohol and other drugs have an direct influence on the receptors of the brain. These formulations either suppresses or depresses the synthesis of chemical neurotransmitters which release from the brain. As, an impact of which the bodily actions are either energized or weeken. These may either result in sleep making effects or may increase the strength of the body.

What is the balanced form of the following equation? Br 2 + S 2 O 3 2– + H 2 O → Br 1– + SO 4 2– + H +

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

4Br₂+ 5H₂O+ S₂O₃²⁻ → 2SO₄²⁻ + 10H⁺ + 8Br⁻

Explanation:

Br₂ + S₂O₃²⁻ + H₂O → Br⁻ + SO₄²⁻ + H⁺

This is a redox reaction:

Br₂ changes the oxidation state from 0 to -1, so it was reduced

In the S₂O₃⁻² anion S changes the oxidation state from +2 to +6 in sulfate anion. (S₂O₃⁻², it is called thiosulfate)

We have protons in the main equation, so we assume we are in acidic medium:

Br₂ + 2e⁻ → 2Br⁻ Reduction

We balanced the bromide with 2, so the bromine has gained 2 electrons.

5H₂O + S₂O₃²⁻ → 2SO₄²⁻ + 10H⁺ + 8e- Oxidation

First of all, we add 2 to the sulfate anion in the product side, in order to balance the S.

As we have 8 O in right side, and 3 O in left side, we must add 5 O. We add 5 water in the place where the O are lower (reactant side).

Now, we have 10 H, in the reactant side, so we balance the product side with protons (10 H⁺).

Sulfur changed the oxidation state from +2 to +6, so it released 4 electrons, but, if you see thiosulfate anion you have 2 sulfurs so finally it has released 8 electrons.

Electrons are unbalanced so we multiply reduction x4, and oxidation x1.

(Br₂ + 2e⁻ → 2Br⁻) . 4 = 4Br₂ + 8e⁻ → 8Br⁻

(5H₂O + S₂O₃²⁻ → 2SO₄²⁻ + 10H⁺ + 8e-) . 1 = STAYS THE SAME.

We sum both half reactions, to cancel the elecetrons:

4Br₂ + 8e⁻ + 5H₂O + S₂O₃²⁻ → 2SO₄²⁻ + 10H⁺ + 8e- + 8Br⁻

Finally the balanced reaction is: 4Br₂+ 5H₂O+ S₂O₃²⁻ → 2SO₄²⁻ + 10H⁺ + 8Br⁻

Why do people describe water as a universal solvent

NikAS [45]

The reason people describe water as a universal solvent is because it dissolves almost anything.

How many moles of Cu(OH)2 are soluble in 1L of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) when the pH is 8.23?

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

4.96E-8 moles of Cu(OH)2

Explanation:

Kps es the constant referring to how much a substance can be dissolved in water. Using Kps, it is possible to know the concentration of weak electrolytes. Then, pKps is the minus logarithm of Kps.

Now, we know that sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong electrolyte, who is completely dissolved in water. Therefore the pH depends only on OH concentration originating from NaOH. Let us to figure out how much is that OH concentration.

$pH= -log[H]\\pH= -log (\frac{kw}{[OH]})$
