Answer:
Explanation:
The formula of the reaction:
KClO₂ → KCl + O₂
To assign oxidation numbers, we have to obey some rules:
- Elements in an uncombined state or one whose atoms combine with one another to form molecules have an oxidation number of zero.
- The charge on simple ions signifies their oxidation number.
- The algebraic sum of all the oxidation number of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero. For radicals with charges, their oxidation number is the charge.
The oxidation number of K in KClO₂:
K + (-1) + 2(-2) = 0
K-5 = 0
K = +5
The oxidation number of K in KCl:
K + (-1) = 0
K = +1
The oxidation number Cl in KClO₂ is -1
For Cl in KCl, the oxidation number is -1
For O in KClO₂, the oxidation number is (2 x -2) = -4
For O in O₂, the oxidation number is 0
K moves from an oxidation state of +5 to +1. This is a gain of electrons and K has undergone reduction. We then say K is reduced.
O moves from an oxidation state of -4 to 0. This is a loss of electrons and O has undergone oxidation. We say O is oxidized.
I think this is learned in chemistry do you have any notes that can help
Answer:
50000ppm and 0.855M.
Explanation:
ppm is an unit of chemistry defined as the ratio between mg of solute (NaCl) and Liters of solution. Molarity, M, is the ratio between moles of NaCl and liters
A 5% (w/v) NaCl contains 5g of NaCl in 100mL of solution.
To solve the ppm of this solution we need to find the mg of NaCl and the L of solution:
<em>mg NaCl:</em>
5g * (1000mg / 1g) = 5000mg
<em>L Solution:</em>
100mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.100L
ppm:
5000mg / 0.100L = 50000ppm
To find molarity we need to obtain the moles of NaCl in 5g using its molar mass:
5g * (1mol / 58.5g) = 0.0855moles NaCl
Molarity:
0.0855mol NaCl / 0.100L = 0.855M
