Which is a redox reaction?

1 answer:

8 0

You have to look at the oxidation states of each atom in the reaction. Since redox reactions involve the transfer of electrons from one element to another, 2 elements need to have oxidation state changes.
option a is the only option that has a change in oxidation sates. Fluorine goes from 0 to -1 indicating that it gained electrons (got reduced) while bromine goes from -1 to 0 indicating it loses electrons (got oxidized).
(2Br⁻→Br₂+2e⁻ and F₂+2e⁻→2F⁻).

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

What is the atomic number of pt-175 after it undergoes alpha decay

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Explanation:

Alpha decay is one of the most basic forms of radioactive decay. It has an atomic mass of 4 and a proton number of two.

Undergoing an alpha decay will decrease the atomic mass by four and the atomic number by two.

In this particular question, we are particular about the atomic number. The atom has an atomic number of 78. So taking 2 off this gives 76

Please somebody give me the answers

Answer:

1. 9.4 grams of methane produce 25.85 grams of CO2

2.Grams of water produced = 11.81 grams

3.Mass of Methane produced by 10.1 gram of O2 = 2.52 grams

4.Amount of methane consumed = 46.9 grams

5. Grams of Co2 produced = 8.32 grams

Explanation:

Molar masses :

Methane = CH4 = mass of C + 4x (mass of H)

CH4 = 12 +4(1) = 16 grams

1 mole of CH4 = 16 gram

Oxygen O2 = 2 x (mass of O) = 2x(16) = 32 gram (1 mole of O2 =32 gram)

Carbon Dioxide =CO2 = mass of C + 2(mass of O)

= 12 + 2(16)

= 44 grams (1 mole of CO2 = 44 gram )

Water = H2O = 18 grams ( 1 mole of H2O = 18 gram)

1 mole of each molecule is equal to their molar masses

The balanced equation is :

$1CH_{4}(g)+2O_{2}\rightarrow 1CO_{2}+2H_{2}O(l)$

According to Stoichiometry :

1 mole of CH4 = 2 Mole of O2 = 1 mole of CO2 = 2 mole of H2O

1. From the equation ,

1 mole of methane produce =1 mole of CO2

16 gram of methane = 44 gram of CO2

1 gram of methane =

$\frac{44}{16}$ gram of CO2

9.4 gram of CH4 =

$\frac{44}{16}\times 9.4$ gram of CO2

= 25 .85 gram of CO2

2 mole of O2 produces = 2 mole of H2O(water)

1 mole of O2 produces = 1 mole of H2O

32 gram of O2 = 18 gram of water

1 gram of O2 =

$\frac{18}{32}$

21 gram of O2 =

$\frac{18}{32}\times 21$

11.81 gram of water

3. 1 mole of CH4 = 2 mole of O2

16 gram of CH4 = 2(32) = 64 grams of O2

64 gram of O2 needs = 16 grams of CH4

1 gram of O2 needs =

$\frac{16}{64}$

10.1 gram of O =

$\frac{16}{64}\times 10.1$ of CH4

= 2.52 gram

1 mole of CO2 is produced from = 1 mole of CH4

44 gram of CO2 is produced from 16 gram of CH4

1 gram CO2 =

$\frac{16}{44}$ gram of CH4

129 gram of CO2 =

$\frac{16}{44}\times 129$ gram of CH4

= 46.90 grams

2 mole of O2 produce = 1 mole of CO2

2x 32 gram of O2 = 44 gram of CO2

1 gram of O2 =

$\frac{44}{64}$ of CO2

12.1 gram of O2 produce=

$\frac{44}{64}\times 12.1$ of CO2

= 8.318 gram

Note : Write the quantity give on left side of "="

write the substance asked on right side of "="
