Answer : Oxidation reaction produces oxygen and water molecule during electrolysis of water.

Explanation:

Electrolysis : It is a type of process in which the chemical decomposition produced by passing an electric current through the solution that containing the ions.

Electrolysis of water : It is basically the decomposition of water into oxygen and hydrogen gas through a process of electric current.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electron to attain stability.

The chemical reactions during electrolysis of water are:

At cathode:  2H_2O+2e^-\rightarrow H_2+2OH^-

At anode:  2OH^-\rightarrow \frac{1}{2}O_2+H_2O+2e^-

Overall reaction: H_2O\rightarrow H_2+\frac{1}{2}O_2

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode.

Hence, oxidation reaction produces oxygen and water molecule during electrolysis of water.

When doing a titration what is the equivalency point of the neutralization reaction?
KengaRu [80]
The equivalency point is at the point of the titration where the amount of titrant added neutralize the solution. When it’s a strong acid strong base titration, the equivalence point will be 7. When it is a weak acid strong base, the equivalence point it more basic (the exact number depends on what acid and base you use). And when it is a strong acid weak base, the equivalence number is more acid (the exact number depends on what acid and base you use). Hope this helps!

When iron metal reacts with oxygen, the reaction can form Fe2O3. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction, and find
ryzh [129]
The balanced equation is 
4Fe+3O₂⇒2Fe₂O₃

We know that the mole of Fe₂O₃ is 6, and since the ratio between oxygen and <span>Fe₂O₃ is 3:2, we can see that

3:2 = x:6 (3 oxygen moles can make 2 </span>Fe₂O₃ moles = x oxygen moles can make 6 <span>Fe₂O₃ moles)
</span><span>
Multiply outside and inside (3*6 , 2*x) and put them on opposing sides of the equation

2*x = 3*6
2x=18
x=9
Therefore 9 moles of oxygen is needed.

What is the mass in grams of BaCl2 that is needed to prepare 200 mL of a 0.500 M solution
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

= 20.82 g of BaCl2

Explanation:

Given,

Volume = 200 mL

Molarity = 0.500 M

Therefore;

Moles = molarity × volume

          = 0.2 L × 0.5 M

          = 0.1 mole

But; molar mass of BaCl2 is 208.236 g/mole

Therefore; 0.1 mole of BaCl2 will be equivalent to;

  = 208.236 g/mol x 0.1 mol

  = 20.82 g

Therefore, the mass of BaCl2 in grams required is 20.82 g

Does the volume of particles affect the behavior of gas
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Yes, it does, although only physically and not chemically.

Explanation:

If a volume of gas is way spread out, it won't collide with the other gas particles as often, reducing pressure and temperature because they lose kinetic energy to their surroundings when they don't collide.

If it is compressed, it increases temperature and pressure because the gas particles collide with each other and the walls of the container way more often than if they had more space.

Hope this answers your question.

P.S.

Fun fact, gas particles are actually moving at 300-400 meters per second at room temperature, they only slow down to walking speed at very low temperatures, like 10 Kelvin
