The answer is: (1) Cl2(g) + 2NaBr(aq)-->Br2(l) + 2NaCl(aq).

In this chemical reaction chlorine change oxidation number from 0 to -1 (reduction) and bromine change oxidation number from -1 to 0 (oxidation).

Chlorine is stronger oxidation reagent than bromine.

In VIIA or group 17 (halogen elements) there are six elements: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At) and tennessin(Ts).

They have high electronegativity because they have seven valence electrons in their outermost energy level, so they can gain an electron to have the octet rule.

Going down in the group, element are weaker oxidazing reagent and less reactive.

Electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

2. Classify the following solutions as acidic, basic, or neutral at 25OC.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: a) pH = 13.00 : basic

b) $[H_3O^+]=1.0\times 10^{-12}$ : basic

c) pOH = 5.00 : basic

d) $[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-9}$ : acidic

Explanation:

pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

$pH=-\log [H_3O^+]$

Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.

a) pH = 13.00

As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.

b) $[H_3O^+]=1.0\times 10^{-12}$

Putting in the values:

$pH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-12}]$

$pH=12$

As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.

c) pOH = 5.00

$pH+pOH=14.0$

$pH=14.0-5.00=9.00$

As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.

d) $[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-9}$

Putting in the values:

$pOH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-9}]$

$pOH=9.00$

$pH+pOH=14.0$

$pH=14.0-9.00=5.00$

As pH is less than 7, the solution is acidic.

What volume (in L) of oxygen will be required to produce 77.4 L of water vapor in the reaction below?

Inga [223]

Answer:

90.3 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water produced = 77.4 L

Volume of oxygen required = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂ → 4CO₂ + 6H₂O

It is known that,

1 mole = 22.414 L

There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L

There are 6 moles of water = 6×22.414 = 134.5 L

Now we will compare:

H₂O : O₂

134.5 : 156.9

77.4 : 156.9/134.5×77.4 =90.3 L

So for the production of 77.4 L water 90.3 L oxygen is required.

Write the empirical formula of at least four binary ionic compounds that could be formed from the following ions: Zn2+, Ni4+, F-

hram777 [196]

Ionic compounds are formed between oppositely charged ions.

A binary ionic compound is composed of ions of two different elements - one of which is a positive ion(metal), and the other is negative ion (nonmetal).

To write the empirical formula of binary ionic compound we must remember that one ion should be positive and other ion should be negative, then only the correct formula should be written. To write the empirical formula the charges of opposite ions should be criss-crossed.

First empirical formula of binary ionic compound is written between $Zn^{2+} (Positive ion)and F^{-} (Negative ion)$

First Formula would be $ZnF_{2}$

Second empirical formula is between $Zn^{2+}(Positive ion) and O^{2-}(Negative ion)$

Second Formula would be $Zn_{2}O_{2}$

Note : When the subscript are same they get cancel out, so $Zn_{2}O_{2}$ would be written as $ZnO$

Third empirical formula is between $Ni^{4+}(Positive ion) and F^{-}(Negative ion)$

Third Formula would be : $NiF_{4}$

Forth empirical formula is between $Ni^{4+}(Positive ion)and O^{2-}(negative ion)$

Forth Formula would be : $Ni_{2}O_{4}$ or $NiO_{2}$

Note- The subscript will be simplified and the formula will be written as $NiO_{2}$ .

The empirical formula of four binary ionic compounds are : $ZnF_{2}, ZnO, NiF_{4},NiO_{2}$
