Yes. If this is the balanced equation:

AlCl3 + 3Na —— 3NaCl + Al

then Al was reduced from a 3+ oxidation (to neutralize the 3- from the chlorine) to a 0 oxidation (elemental ground state).

Answer : There is no change takes place in the oxidation number of Cl.

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is,

AlCl_3+Na\rightarrow NaCl+Al

This reaction is an unbalanced reaction because the chlorine atoms are not balanced.

In order to balance the chemical reaction, the coefficient 3 is put before the Na and NaCl.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

AlCl_3+3Na\rightarrow 3NaCl+Al

Now we have to calculate the oxidation number of all the elements.

In AlCl_3, the oxidation number of Al and Cl are, (+3) and (-1) respectively.

The oxidation number Na and Al are, zero (0)

In NaCl, the oxidation number of Na and Cl are, (+1) and (-1) respectively.

From this we conclude that the oxidation number of Cl changes from (-1) to (-1) that means remains same.

Therefore, there is no change takes place in the oxidation number of Cl.

0.750mol of gas are stored in a tank at a pressure of 275kpa and a temperature of 0.00 degrees * C What is the volume of the tan
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The volume on the tank is 6, 20 L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV=nRT. We convert the units of pressure in kPa into atm and temperature in Celsius into Kelvin:

0°C=273K

101,325kPa---1 atm

275kPa --------x=(275kPax 1 atm)/101,325kPa= 2,71 atm

PV=nRT --> V=nRT/P

V= 0,750 mol x 0,082 l atm /K mol x 273 K/ 2, 71 atm= <em>6, 20 L</em>
