AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

C)

Explanation:

Oxidation occurs when the Nox number increases and a reduction occurs when the Nox number decreases. So, let's verify in which reaction the same reactant has elements that both occur after the reaction.

A) H₂SeO₄: H = +1, O = -2 (fixed)

Se: x +2*1 + 4*(-2) = 0

x + 2 - 8= 0

x = +6

Cl⁻: -1 (ions have Nox equal to its charge)

H⁺: +1

H₂SeO₃: H = + 1, O = -2

Se: x +2*1 + 3*(-2) = 0

x + 2 -6 = 0

x = + 4 (Se reduces)

Cl₂: Cl = 0 (simple molecule, so Cl oxides)

H₂O: H = +1, O = -2

B) S₈: S = 0

O₂: O = 0

SO₂: O = -2, S: x + 2*(-2) = 0 -> x = +4 (S oxides and O reduces)

C) Br₂: Br = 0

OH⁻ : O = -2, H = +1

Br⁻ = -1 (Br reduces)

BrO₃⁻: O = -2, Br: x +3x(-2) = -1 -> x = +5 (Br oxides)

H₂O: H = +1, O = -2

D) Ca²⁺: Ca = +2

SO₄²⁻: O = -2, S: x +4*(-2) = -2 -> x = +6

CaSO₄: O = -2, S = +6, Ca = +2

E) PtCl₄: Cl = -1 (fixed), Pt: x + 4*(-1) = 0 -> x = +4

Cl⁻: Cl = -1

PtCl₆²⁻: Cl = -1, Pt = x + 6*(-1) = -2 -> x = +4

So, only in letter C Br₂ is undergoes both oxidation and reduction.

Give the ideal bond angle for BrO3- ion? I know this has trigonal bipyramidal geometry and therefore the bond angle is &lt; 109.
Vadim26 [7]

Now that we have a background in the Lewis electron dot structure we can use it to locate the the valence electrons of the center atom. The valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory states that electron pairs repel each other whether or not they are in bond pairs or in lone pairs. Thus, electron pairs will spread themselves as far from each other as possible to minimize repulsion. VSEPR focuses not only on electron pairs, but it also focus on electron groups as a whole. An electron group can be an electron pair, a lone pair, a single unpaired electron, a double bond or a triple bond on the center atom. Using the VSEPR theory, the electron bond pairs and lone pairs on the center atom will help us predict the shape of a molecule.

The shape of a molecule is determined by the location of the nuclei and its electrons. The electrons and the nuclei settle into positions that minimize repulsion and maximize attraction. Thus, the molecule's shape reflects its equilibrium state in which it has the lowest possible energy in the system. Although VSEPR theory predicts the distribution of the electrons, we have to take in consideration of the actual determinant of the molecular shape. We separate this into two categories, the electron-group geometry and the molecular geometry.

he mass defect of the helium nucleus ⁴He₂ is 0.030377 u

Further explanation

Mass defect means the difference between the mass of particles forming an atom with an atomic mass.

Δm = mass defect ( u )

mp = mass of proton ( u )

me = mass of electron ( u )

mn = mass of neutron ( u )

M = atomic mass ( u )

A = mass number

Z = atomic number

A student dissolves of 15 g aniline in of a solvent with a density of . The student notices that the volume of the solvent does
VikaD [51]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is ;

A student dissolves of 15 g aniline in 200 ml of a solvent with a density of 1.05 g/ml. The student notices that the volume of the solvent does not change when the aniline dissolves in it. Calculate the molarity and molality of the student's solution. Be sure each of your answer entries has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: The molarity is 0.81 M and molality is 0.82 m

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per Liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n= moles of solute  

V_s = volume of solution in ml = 200 ml

{\text {moles of solute}=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{15g}{93g/mol}=0.16mol

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{0.16\times 1000}{200}=0.81M

Thus molarity is 0.81 M

Molality of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per kg of the solvent.

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{W_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

W_s = weight of solvent in g

{\text {moles of solute}=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{15g}{93g/mol}=0.16mol

Mass of solution = Density\times Volume=1.05g/ml\times 200ml=210g

mass of solvent = mass of solution - mass of solute = (210 - 15) g = 195 g

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

Molality=\frac{0.16\times 1000}{195g}=0.82mole/kg

Therefore, the molality of solution is 0.82m

How do stomata help a plant maintain balance with their environment?
AnnZ [28]

Stomatal pores in plants regulate the amount of water and solutes within them by opening and closing their guard cells using osmotic pressure. In order for plants to produce energy and maintain cellular function, their cells undergo the highly intricate process of photosynthesis .
