Answer:
The atom that is oxidized is Zn.
Explanation:
Reducing agents reduce other atoms or species by being oxidized themselves. Oxidation is a loss of electrons. In the equation, the Zn atom originally has an oxidation state of zero (neutral). On the right side of the equation, Zn is part of the ionic compound zinc sulfate, which is composed of the Zn(2+) cation and the SO4(2-) anion. The Zn(2+) ion is positive, which means it must have lost electrons (which have a negative charge), and was therefore oxidized from the neutral atom Zn(s).
Answer:
Initial temperature of the gas cylinder was 167.7K
Explanation:
Based on Gay-Lussac's law, the pressure of a gas under constant volume is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. The equation is:
P1*T2 = P2*T1
<em>Where P is pressure and T absolute temperature of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas.</em>
<em />
Replacing:
P1 = 1.25atm
T2 = 354.2K
P2 = 2.64atm
T1 = ?
1.25atm*354.2K = 2.64atm*T1
167.7K = T1
<h3>Initial temperature of the gas cylinder was 167.7K</h3>
