Answer: Redox reaction/displacement reaction

Explanation:

Zn + 2AgNO3----------> Zn(NO3)2+ 2Ag

Let us consider the change in oxidation number from left to right

Oxidation number of zinc changed from 0 to +2

Oxidation number of silver changed from +1 to 0

Zinc was oxidized while silver was reduced. This shows a redox process

Also Zinc displaced silver because silver is below zinc in the a electrochemical series of metals. That is, the electrode potential of zinc is more negative than that of silver hence it can displace silver from its salt.

2AgNO3  +  Zn  -->  Zn(NO3)2  +  2Ag
Its a redox reaction, Zn is oxidised (0 --> 2+), Ag is reduced (1+ --> 0)

Predict how the addition of a catalyst would affect the rate of the reaction below, and explain your prediction H2 (g) + I2 (g)
Fynjy0 [20]
A catalyst is a chemical substance that hastens the chemical reaction. This does not participates in the creating the product(s) but allows it to be formed easily. With this, it is now known that the rate of the reaction becomes relatively higher compared to the uncatalyzed reactions.

Therefore, the answer to this item is the rate of the reaction becomes faster.

What is the percentage strength (w/w) of a solution made by dissolving 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 ml of water?
kiruha [24]

Percent strength (% w/w) of a solution is defined as the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of the solute, potassium chloride = 62.5 g

Volume of water (solution) = 187.5 ml

We know that the density of water = 1 g/ml

Therefore, the mass corresponding to the given volume of water

= 187.5 ml * 1 g/1 ml = 187.5 g

We have a solution of 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 g water

Therefore, amount of solute in 100 g of water= 62.5 * 100/187.5 = 33.33

The percentage strength = 33.33 %

How does a phenol red-containing solution look if co2 level is low?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The variables to be examined in relation to carbon dioxide use are the amount of light exposure and amount of dissolved CO2. Phenol red is yellow/orange under acidic conditions, that is when the pH of the solution is less than 7 (e.g. pH = 6). This occurs when the concentration of CO2 is high.

Explanation:

is this correct
