In the reaction of calcium with chlorine, which atom is oxidized? ca + cl2 -> cacl2

1 answer:

5 0

Redox reactions consist of reduction and oxidation reactions
oxidation reactions are the giving out of electrons, the oxidation number of the species giving out the electrons increases during oxidation
reduction reactions are taking in electrons and the oxidation number of the species taking in electrons reduces after reduction
in the reaction Ca + Cl₂ --> CaCl₂
oxidation numbers of Ca in Ca - 0 and CaCl₂ - +2
oxidation numbers of Cl in Cl₂ - 0 and CaCl₂ - -1
oxidation number of Ca has increased from 0 to +2 therefore Ca is oxidised

When .080 moles of propane burn at STP, what volume of carbon dioxide is produced?

ahrayia [7]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry and the definition of STP, 5.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

C₃H₈: 1 mole
O₂: 5 moles
CO₂: 3 moles
H₂O: 4 moles

<h3>Moles of CO₂ formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of C₃H₈ form 3 moles of CO₂, 0.080 moles of C₃H₈ form how many moles of CO₂?

$amount of moles of CO_{2} =\frac{0.080 moles of C_{3} H_{8}x3 moles of CO_{2} }{1 mole of C_{3} H_{8} }$

<u><em>amount of moles of CO₂= 0.24 moles</em></u>

<h3>Definition of STP condition</h3>

The STP conditions refer to the standard temperature and pressure. Pressure values at 1 atmosphere and temperature at 0 ° C are used and are reference values for gases. And in these conditions 1 mole of any gas occupies an approximate volume of 22.4 liters.

<h3>Volume of CO₂ produced</h3>

You can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of STP 1 mole of CO₂ occupies 22.4 L, 0.24 moles of CO₂ how much volume does it occupy?

$volume of CO_{2} =\frac{0.24 molesx22.4 L}{1 mole}$

<u><em>volume of CO₂= 5.376 L ≅ 5.4 L</em></u>

Finally, 5.4 L of carbon dioxide is produced.

A geologist sends you a sample that was collected in the field. you find that it is a gray-colored igneous rock containing amphi

Bogdan [553]

A grey coloured rock with amphibole and intermediate plagioclase like an andesine would classify as an intermediate rock by Bowen's Reaction Series and by the classification of igneous rocks would probably be like a diorite which is intermediate between a gabbro and a granite. A diorite essentially has no quartz but has the silicates amphibole (like hornblende), mica perhaps a little pyroxene and andesine plagioclase.

At 50.14k a substance has a vapor pressure of 258.9 torr. calculate its heat of vaporization in kj/mol if it has a vapor pressur

gayaneshka [121]

T₁ = 50,14 K.
p₁ = 258,9 torr.
T₂ = 161,2 K.
p₂ = 277,5 torr.
R = 8,314 J/K·mol.
Using Clausius-Clapeyron equation:
ln(p₁/p₂) = - ΔHvap/R · (1/T₁ - 1/T₂).
ln(258,9 torr/277,5 torr) = -ΔHvap/8,314 J/K·mol · (1/50,14 K - 1/161,2 K).
-0,069 = -ΔHvap/8,314 J/K·mol · (0,0199 1/K - 0,0062 1/K).
0,0137·ΔHvap = 0,573 J/mol.
ΔHvap = 41,82 J.
