Which statement best identifies and describes the oxidizing agent in the reaction? 2Al + 3Br2 → 2AlBr3

Chemistry
1 answer:
RideAnS [48]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An oxidizing agent is a specie which accepts electrons and gets reduced in a chemical reaction.

In the given reaction, 2Al + 3Br_{2} \rightarrow 2AlBr_{3}

Oxidation state of Al changes from 0 to +3, therefore, it is reducing agent. Whereas oxidation state of Br is changing from -2 to -3 this means Br is gaining electrons, therefore, it is an oxidizing agent.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement Br_{2} is the oxidizing agent because its oxidation number decreases.

Given the following Fischer projection: Fischer projection for an entantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal with the bromine
harina [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stereoisomers are two or more atoms that  have the same bonding order of atoms but there is a difference  spatial arrangement of  the  atoms in space.

A plane of symmetry divides a molecule into two equal halves.

A chiral stereoisomer are not superimposed on a mirror image , Hence they do not posses a plane of symmetry.

As a result to that. these non-superimposable mirror images are said to be Enantiomers.

However, a Fischer Projection emanates from a two - dimensional figure which is used for presenting a three - dimensional organic molecules.

From the given question;

Fischer projection for an enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal with the bromine oriented horizontally to the left and the hydroxide group oriented horizontally to the right.

we can sketch the way the enantiomer of 2-bromo-2,3-dihydroxypropanal can  be seen like the one shown below:

              CH₂OH

                   |

                   |

                   |

Br -------------|----------------OH

                   |

                   |

                   |

                 CHO

The objective of this question is to drawn the perspective formula of the molecule.

So , from the attached file below; we can see the perspective formula of the molecule in a well structured 3-D format.

Which of the following statements is TRUE? Which of the following statements is TRUE? Two electrons in the same orbital can have
Monica [59]

An orbital that penetrates into the region occupied by core electrons is less shielded from nuclear charge than an orbital that does not penetrate and therefore has a lower energy.

Explanation:

The only true statement from the given options is that "an orbital that penetrates into the region occupied by core electrons is less shielded from nuclear charge than an orbital that does not penetrate and therefore has a lower energy." Inner orbitals which are also known to contain core electrons feels the bulk of the nuclear pull on them compared to the outermost orbitals containing the valence electrons.

  • The nuclear pull is the effect of the nucleus pulling and attracting the electrons in orbitals.
  • This pull is stronger for inner orbitals and weak on the outer ones.
  • The outer orbitals are said to be well shielded from the pull of the nuclear charge.
  • Also, based on the quantum theory, electrons in the outer orbitals have higher energies because they occupy orbitals at having higher energy value.

Gas law problem: A gas has a volume of 800 mL at -25℃ and 600 kPa. What would the volume of the gas be at 227℃ and 1000 kPa?
Sati [7]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 930.23 mL

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Using the combined gas law;

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where; P1 = 600 kPa, V1 = 800 mL, and T1 = -25 +273 = 258 K, and

V2= ?, P2 = 1000 kPa, and T2 = 227 +273 = 500 K

Thus;

V2 = P1V1T2/T1P2

     = (600 ×800 ×500) / (258 × 1000)

     = 930.23 mL

Identify the half reaction as oxidation or reduction.
topjm [15]
OILRIG:
Oxidation is loss (of electrons)
Reduction is gain (of electrons)
