Do iron (III) chloride, potassium iodide, or potassium chloride catalyze the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide?

Chemistry
1 answer:
alexira [117]3 years ago
3 0
Iron (III) chloride catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide because the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide is usually inhibited by the presence of ions such as phosphate ions in solution. The iron ions that would result from the dissolution of iron (III) chloride have a charge of 3+ and would bond with the -3 charged phosphate ions, creating a non-charged FePO4 molecule and removing the decomposition inhibitor from the solution. Potassium iodide and potassium chloride both are more strongly bonded than a transition metal compound and would lack the necessary charged iron ion when added to hydrogen peroxide.

For question numbers 1 and 2, two statements are given - one labelled
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

(iv) (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Explanation:

It is not true that carbon has a strong tendency to either lose or gain electrons to attain noble gas configuration. Carbon is a member of group 14, it is the first member of the group and carbon is purely a non metal. Only metals metals can loose electrons to attain the noble gas configuration. Moreover, carbon does not participate in ionic bonding so it does not gain electrons to attain the noble gas configuration.

However, carbon participates in covalent bonding where it is covalently bonded to four other chemical species using its four outermost electrons. Carbon forms covalent bonds in which four electrons are shared with other chemical species.

How did scientists discover that Earth's outer core is liquid?
Sholpan [36]
They discovered this since S waves don’t travel through the earth but P waves do. P waves tend to travel faster than S waves in speed, 1&14km/s vs 1&8km/s
