Which of the following reactions illustrates amphoterism

Chemistry
1 answer:
gregori [183]3 years ago
5 0

The answer is;

H₂O+H₂O⇌H₃O⁺+OH⁻

Amphoteric substances are capable of acting as a base or an acid in a reaction<span>. The reason water is considered amphoteric is because it is capable of self-ionizing. Another popular amphoteric compound is Al2O3. These molecules are able to accept and donate a proton.</span>

Sodium thiosulfate, Na 2S 2O 3, is used as a "fixer" in black and white photography. Identify the reducing agent in the reaction
Tatiana [17]

Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

Explanation:

A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.

In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in S_{2}O^{2-}_{3} is +2 and I_{2}(aq) has 0 oxidation state.

In S_{4}O^{2-}_{6}(aq) oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in 2I^{-}(aq) oxidation state of I is -1.

Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.

Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}.

How does wind develop
avanturin [10]
It is caused by differences in the atmospheric pressure. When a difference in atmospheric pressure exists, air moves from the higher to the lower pressure area, resulting in winds that vary in speed. On Earth, air is also deflected by the Coriolis effect, except exactly on the equator.

One mole of ice at 0°C is added to two moles of water at 50°C under a constant external pressure of 1 atm. This process is carri
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

T2 = 29.79°C

Explanation:

Equliibrium signifies that heat loss = heat gained

Heat gained by Ice;

H = ML

Mass, M = Number of moles * Molar mass = 1 * 18 = 18g

l = 6.01 k J m o l = 334 J/g

C = 4.186 J/g

H =  18(334)

H = 6012

Heat lost by water

H = MCΔT

H = 18 * 4.186 * (50 - T2)

H = 3767.4 - 75.348T2

Since H = H, we have;

6012 = 3767.4 - 75.348T2

- 75.348T2 = 3767 - 6012

T2 = 2245 / 75.348

T2 = 29.79°C

4. Juan tiene un cilindro de 40 libras herméticamente cerrado con gas propano y lo conecta mediante una válvula a otro cilindro
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Ver explicacion

Explanation:

Cuando el cilindro de 40 libras está conectado al cilindro de 100 libras, generamos una presión que continúa hasta que los dos cilindros alcanzan la misma presión de gas en equilibrio. Recuerde que el cilindro de 100 libras estaba inicialmente vacío. Esto significa que su presión inicial es 0. El cilindro de 40 libras ya estaba lleno, por lo que dividimos esta cantidad en dos para tener en cuenta su distribución entre los dos cilindros.

Ahora tenemos 20 libras de gas propano presentes en cada cilindro. La implicación de esto es que, en el cilindro de 100 libras, necesitamos 80 libras adicionales para completar las 100 libras.

How many moles are 21.67 L of NH4CI?
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

0.967mole

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of NH₄Cl  = 21.67L

Unknown:

Number of moles  = ?

Solution:

If we assume that the volume was taken at standard temperature and pressure,

 Then;

  Number of moles  = \frac{volume }{22.4L}  

 Number of moles  = \frac{21.67}{22.4}   = 0.967mole
