In a reduction reaction, some electrons are gained by the substance being reduced. The balanced half-reaction to this would be:

<span>MnO2(s)  +  4 H+ (aq)  +  2e ---> Mn^2+ (aq)  +  2 H2O (aq)</span>

<span>It is called balanced reaction since the number of each element in the left side is equal to the number of each element on the right side.</span>

Indicate whether each statement is true or false. Sort these statements into the proper categories.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Answer below

Explanation:

A - false

B - true

C - false

In chemistry there is a principle that polar compounds are soluble with other polar compounds and non-polar compounds are mutually different.

Thus, sodium chloride is an ionic salt (polar) so it is not soluble in the benzene (non-polar) covalent compound, but it is soluble in water that is polar.

The ionic compounds will be soluble in polar solvents and not soluble in non-polar solvents, regardless of whether they are organic or inorganic.

Answer the following questions in brief.<br>Why does silver get tarnished on exposure to air?​
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: When silver is exposed to sulfur-containing gases in the air, it discolours and then darkens as it reacts with the gas to form a surface layer of tarnish. This process is called tarnishing.

Hope this helped :)

Fill in the blanks: Most metals have
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Most metals have <u>luster</u> which means they <u>reflect</u> light

Explanation:

When light, which is made up of energetic photons, comes in contact with the surface of a metal, it is absorbed due to the corresponding energy gaps present between the metal orbital. The absorbed photons results in the raising of the energy levels of electrons within an atom of the metal which later drop back to a lower energy level and re-emit the photons which can now be observed as the metallic luster.

compared to the energy released per mole of reactant during chemical reactions the energy released per mole of reactant during n
Zolol [24]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{Roughly a million times greater}}.

Explanation:

For example, the energy released in burning 1 mol of octane, a component of gasoline, is about 5000 kJ.

The energy released in the fission of 1 mol of uranium-235 is

about 1.5 × 10¹⁰ kJ .

The ratio is  

\dfrac{1.5 \times 10^{10} }{5000} \approx 3 \times 10^{6}\\\\\text{The energy released by nuclear reactions is } \boxed{\textbf{roughly a million times greater}}\\\text{ than that released during chemical reactions.}
