Explanation:
When an atom's outermost orbital gains or loses electrons (also known as valence electrons), the atom forms an ion. An ion with more protons than electrons carries a net positive charge and is called a cation. An ion with more electrons than protons carries a net negative charge and is called an anion
Answer:
balanced in ACID not BASE
Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O
Answer
Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O
Explanation:
Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq)
add H^1+ (acid) to capture the O and make 7 water molecules
Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) + H^1+ ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O
Cr goes from +6 to +3 by gaining 3 e
Hg goes from 0 to +2 by losing 2 e
we need 3 Hg for every 2 Cr
so
Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O
2 Cr on the right and left
Net 12 positive charges on the right and the left
3 Hg on the right and left
14 H on the right and left
the equation is balanced
we cannot balance the equation in a basic solution with OH^1-
we have plenty of O in the dichromate ion. we need to convert it to water which take free H^1+ from the acid
SiO2 is the only possible choice because the other formulas contain metals. how do we know this? because the other formulas contain elements located on the left of the “staircase” on the periodic table that separates metals from non-metals.
