2O2 IS THE OXIDIZING AGENT BECAUSE IT GIVES ALL OTHER ELEMENT OXYGEN

WARRIOR [948]2 years ago

Answer:

Oxygen gas (O₂)

Explanation:

Oxidizing agent is one which its self gets reduced and oxidizes the other.

Oxidation is the process where the oxidation number of substance increases while in reduction the oxidation number decreases.

The oxidation number of hydrogen in both methane and water is "+1"

Oxidation number of carbon in methane is "-4"

While its oxidation number in carbondioxide is "+4"

Thus carbon is undergoing oxidation.

While the change in oxidation number of oxygen from O₂ to CO₂ is "0" to -2

Hence it is undergoing reduction and oxidizing carbon.

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The new temperature will be equal to 4 K.

$T_{2}=4K$

We are given the volume, the first temperature and the new volume after the gas is compressed. To calculate the new temperature after the gas was compressed, we need to use Charles's Law.

Charles's Law establishes a relationship between the volume and the temperature at a gas while its pressure is constant.

Now, to calculate the new temperature we need to assume that the pressure is kept constant, otherwise, the problem would not have a solution.

From Charle's Law, we have:

$\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

So, we are given the following information:

$V_{1}=500mL\\T_{1}=20K\\V_{2}=100mL$

Then, isolating the new temperature and substituting the given information, we have:

$\frac{V_{1}}{T_{1}}=\frac{V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

$T_{2}=\frac{T_{1}}{V_{1}}*V_{2} \\$

$T_{2}=\frac{20.00K}{500mL}*100mL\\$

$T_{2}=4K$

Hence, the new temperature will be equal to 4 K.

$T_{2}=4K$

Have a nice day!

Use this equation for the following problems: 2NaN3 --> 2Na+3N2

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1) 65.0

2) 16.434 L = 16434 mL.

Explanation:

2NaN₃ → 2Na + 3N₂,

It is clear from the balanced equation that 2.0 moles of NaN₃ are decomposed to 2.0 moles of Na and 3.0 moles of N₂.

Q1: How many grams of NaN₃ are needed to make 23.6L of N₂?

Density of N₂ = 0.92 g/L which means that every 1.0 L of N₂ contains 0.92 g of N₂.

Now, we can get the mass of N₂ in 23.6 L N₂ using cross multiplication:

1.0 L of N₂ contains → 0.92 g of N₂.

23.6 L of N₂ contains → ??? g of N₂.

∴ The mass of N₂ in 23.6 L of N₂ = (23.6 L)(0.92 g)/(1.0 L) = 21.712 g.

We can get the no. of moles of 23.6 L of N₂ (21.712 g) using the relation:

n = mass/molar mass = (21.712 g)/(28.0 g/mol) = 0.775 mol.

We can get the no. of moles of NaN₃ needed to produce 0.775 mol of N₂:

using cross multiplication:

2.0 moles of NaN₃ produce → 3.0 moles of N₂, from the balanced equation.

??? mol of NaN₃ produce → 0.775 moles of N₂.

∴ The no. of moles of NaN₃ needed = (2.0 mol)(0.775 mol)/(3.0 mol) = 0.517 mol.

Finally, we can get the grams of NaN₃ needed:

mass = no. of moles x molar mass = (0.517 mol)(65.0 g/mol) = 33.6 g.

Q2: How many mL of N₂ result if 8.3 g Na are also produced?

We need to get the no. of moles of 8.3 g Na using the relation:

n = mass/atomic mass = (8.3 g)/(22.98 g/mol) = 0.36 mol.

We can get the no. of moles of N₂ produced with 0.36 mol of Na:

using cross multiplication:

2.0 moles of Na produced with → 3.0 moles of N₂, from the balanced equation.

0.36 moles of Na produced with → ??? moles of N₂.

∴ The no. of moles of N₂ needed = (3.0 mol)(0.36 mol)/(2.0 mol) = 0.54 mol.

We can get the mass of 0.54 mol of N₂:

mass = no. of moles x molar mass = (0.54 mol)(28.0 g/mol) = 15.12 g.

Now, we can get the mL of 15.12 g of N₂:

using cross multiplication:

1.0 L of N₂ contains → 0.92 g of N₂, from density of N₂ = 0.92 g/L.

??? L of N₂ contains → 15.12 g of N₂.

∴ The volume of N₂ result = (1.0 L)(15.12 g)/(0.92 g) = 16.434 L = 16434 mL.
