Write a balanced half-reaction describing the oxidation of aqueous chloride anions to gaseous dichlorine.

Chemistry
1 answer:
dexar [7]3 years ago
8 0
Oxidation is a process which involves losing electrons in a reaction by an ion, atom or a molecule. It happens when the oxidation state of the ion, atom or the molecule is being increased. Chloride anions has an oxidation state of -1 and dichlorine has an oxidation state of zero or neutral charge. The balanced half-reaction would be written as:

2Cl- = Cl2 + 2e-

To balance the charge on both sides, two electrons should be produced or released by the anion form of chlorine. Being oxidized would mean that the charge of the ion or molecule is being increased. In this case, it is increased from -1 to 0.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Both the initial and final substances are composed of atoms because all matter is composed of atoms. According to the law of conservation of matter, matter is neither created nor destroyed, so we must have the same number and type of atoms after the chemical change as were present before the chemical change.

How many pounds in a 3.00 l bottle of drinking water?
slava [35]

Answer:

             6.61 Pounds

Solution:

Step 1: Calculate Mass of Water as;

                        Density  =  Mass  ÷  Volume

Solving for Mass,

                        Mass  =  Density  ×  Volume   ------ (1)

As,

                        Density of Water  =  1 g.cm⁻³

And,

                        3 L of Water  =  3000 cm³

Putting values in equation 1,

                        Mass  =  1 g.cm⁻³  × 3000 cm³

                        Mass  =  3000 g

Step 2: Convert Grams into Pounds;

As,

                        1 Gram  =  0.002204 Pounds

So,

                        3000 Grams  =  X Pounds

Solving for X,

                      X =  (3000 Grams  ×  0.002204 Pounds)  ÷  1 Gram

                      X =  6.61 Pounds

Featured snippet from the web
Alchemy is extremely complicated. It is based on the practical skills of early metal workers and craftsmen, on Greek philosophy, and on Eastern mystic cults that sprang up in the first centuries after Christ and influenced so much of magic and occult thought.
