We have to balance the equation in basic medium:
ClO₂⁻ → ClO₄⁻
Chlorine atoms are balanced 
we will balance oxygen atoms by adding water to the side with less oxygen
2 H₂O + ClO₂⁻ → ClO₄⁻
Now balance hydrogens by adding H⁺ first
2 H₂O + ClO₂⁻ → 4 H⁺ + ClO₄⁻
The charge will be balanced by adding electrons to side where positive charge is more
2 H₂O + ClO₂⁻ →  4 e + 4 H⁺ + ClO₄⁻
Now balance H⁺ by adding same number of OH⁻ in both sides
2 H₂O + ClO₂⁻ + 4OH⁻ →  4 e + 4 H⁺ + 4OH⁻ + ClO₄⁻
H⁺ will neutralize OH⁻ to give water
2 H₂O + ClO₂⁻ + 4 OH⁻ → 4 e + 4 H₂O + ClO₄⁻
Balanced half reaction will be:
ClO₂⁻ + 4 OH⁻ → 4 e + 2 H₂O + ClO₄⁻ → (1)
Now balance the second half (reduction):
Fe⁺³ → Fe⁺²
Balance charge by adding electrons:
e + Fe⁺³ → Fe⁺² → (2) Multiply by 4 and add the two equations to get:
ClO₂⁻ + 4 OH⁻ + 4 Fe⁺³  → 4 Fe⁺² + 2 H₂O + ClO₄⁻

How do Newton's laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players
andriy [413]

Answer:

How do Newton's laws of motion explain why it is important to keep the ice smooth on a hockey rink so that players can pass a puck as quickly as possible? Smooth ice reduces the unbalanced forces that would slow the hockey puck. A skydiver falls toward the ground at a constant velocity.

Muszę napisać wzór sumatryczny wysyłam załącznik
ioda

Cześć, nie mówię po polsku, więc zrobiłem to w Tłumaczu Google, więc przepraszam, jeśli coś brzmi śmiesznie.

chlor (VII) i tlen - ten wzór to CI_{2} O_{7}, a tlenek chloru jest bezwodnikiem kwasu nadchlorowego.

węgiel i wodór - wzór na węgiel i wodór to CnH2n + 2), jest to związek organiczny, a niższa klasyfikacja jest taka, że jest to również węglowodór aromatyczny.

Mam nadzieję, że to pomoże, błogosławionego i cudownego dnia! :-)

The activity series goes top to bottom, most active to least active elements, going: Li, K, Ba, Sr, Ca, Na, Mg, Mn, Zn, Fe, Cd, Co, Ni, Sn, Pb, H, Cu, Ag, Hg, Au. 

Thus, your list of metals would go from most reactive to least reactive: Li, K, Mg, Zn, Fe, Cu, Au
