Please see the attached pictures.
Explanation:
☆ To ensure that each carbon has 4 bonds, fill the other bonds with Hs.
I believe that the correct answer would be energy since you need energy for any kind of chemical change to occur. I hope this helped you with your question! If you have any questions please let me know and I might be able to further assist you.
Activation of energy is the foundation of chemical being react in a solution. If activation energy is not reached then no reaction would happen.
K2Cr2O7 + 14HCl → 2CrCl3 + 2KCl + 3Cl2 + 7H2O
the correct option is :
K2Cr2O7, because the oxidation number of Cr changes from +6 to +3.
<u>Oxidation number of Cr in K2Cr2O7 is:</u>
K2Cr2O7 = 2K + 2 Cr + 7 O
= 2(+1) + 2Cr + 7(-2)
= 2 + 2Cr -14
[total charge on K2Cr2O7 = 0], Hence;
2 + 2Cr -14 = 0
2Cr -12 = 0
2Cr = 12
Cr = 12/2
<u>Cr = +6</u>
<u>Oxidation number of Cr in CrCl3 is:</u>
CrCl3 = Cr + 3Cl = 0
Cr + 3(-1) = 0
Cr -3 = 0
<u>Cr = +3</u>
Hence Cr is changing its oxidation number from
+6 in K2Cr2O7 to +3 in CrCl3.
Since the oxidation number of Cr [ +6 → +3] is decreasing here,
Cr is getting reduced.
so K2Cr2O7 is an oxidizing agent,as it is getting itself reduced and oxidizes others.
I believe the first one is correct.
