In the following redox reaction which is the oxidizing agent and which is the reducing agent? AlCl3 + Na NaCl + Al

Chemistry

Answer :  Al

Explanation :

- For a given redox reaction there must be an oxidizing agent/(s) and a reducing agent/(s).

- the oxidizing agent is the substance that undergoes reduction process (gaining electrons or loss of oxygen atoms), meanwhile, the reducing agent is the substance that undergoes oxidation process (loss of electrons or gaining of oxygen atoms).

- In the reaction above, the oxidation number of (Al) in AlCl3 is (3+). However, the oxidation number of (Al) in the products is zero because it exists as a single element.

Therefore, changing from (3+) to zero means gaining of (3) electrons to neutralize the previously existing (3) protons on (Al) in AlCl3.

So Al is the oxidizing agent..

What is the mass of 4.56 moles of copper (ii) fluoride​
musickatia [10]

Answer:

463.0 g.

Explanation:

  • We can use the following relation:

<em>n = mass/molar mass.</em>

where, n is the mass of copper(ii) fluoride​ (m = 4.56 mol),

mass of copper(ii) fluoride​ = ??? g.

molar mass of copper(ii) fluoride​ = 101.543 g/mol.

∴ mass of copper(ii) fluoride​ = (n)(molar mass) = (4.56 mol)(101.543 g/mol) = 463.0 g.

During the process of condensation, water vapor:____________.
monitta

Answer: (2) releases 2260 J/g of heat energy

Explanation:

Latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat required to convert 1 mole of liquid to gas at atmospheric pressure.

Latent heat of condensation is energy released when 1 mole of  vapor condenses to form liquid droplets.

The temperature does not change during this process, so heat released goes into changing the state of the substance, thus it is called latent which means hidden. The energy released in this process is same in magnitude as latent heat of vaporization. The heat of condensation of water vapour is about 2,260 J/g.
