Answer is: reducin agent in this reaction is thiosulfate (S₂O₃²⁻).
Balanced chemical reaction: 2S₂O₃²⁻(aq) + I₂(aq) → S₄O₆²⁻(aq) + 2I⁻<span>(aq).
Reducing agent is element or compound who loose electrons in chemical reaction. Sulfur in </span>thiosulfate change oxidation number from +2 to +5 tetrathionate anion (two<span> sulfur </span>atoms in the ion have oxidation state<span> 0 and two atoms have oxidation state +5).</span>

A gas with a volume of 4.0L at a pressure of 205 kPa is allowed to expand to a volume of 12000 mL. What is the pressure in atmos
Leni [432]

Answer: The pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

P_1V_1=P_2V_2  

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas  = 205 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas = ?

V_1 = initial volume of gas  = 4.0 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 12000 ml = 12 L    (1L=1000ml)  

205\times 4.0=P_2\times 12  

P_2=68.3kPa=0.674atm        (1kPa=0.0098atm)

Therefore, the pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

What is one substance that is 100x more acidic than baking soda
daser333 [38]

Answer:

An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions. Because of this, when an acid is dissolved in water, the balance between hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions is shifted. Now there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions in the solution. This kind of solution is acidic.

The specific heat of zinc is 0.39 J/g*°C. How much energy needed to change the temperature of 34g of zinc from 22°C to 57°C. Is
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

464.1 J absorbed.

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of zinc =  0.39 J/g°C

Mass of zinc = 34 g

Temperature changes = 22°C to 57°C

Energy absorbed or released = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 57°C -  22°C

ΔT = 35°C

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = 34 g. 0.39 J/g°C. 35°C

Q = 464.1 J

24 g of magnesium were burned in oxygen. The compound formed had a mass of 40 g. Explain why the mass had gone up.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer :

According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of reactants must be equal to the mass of products.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

Mg+\frac{1}{2}O_2\rightarrow MgO

As we know that the molar mass of magnesium is 24 g/mole, the molar mass of O_2 is 32 g/mole and the molar mass of magnesium oxide is 40 g/mole.

From the given balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of magnesium react \frac{1}{2} mole of oxygen to give 1 mole of magnesium oxide.

So, the mass of Mg is 24 g, the mass of O_2=\frac{1}{2}\times 32=16g and the mass of MgO is 40 g.

That means 24 g of Mg react with 16 g O_2 to give 40 g of MgO.

Bombardment of cobalt-59 with a neutron produces a manganese-56 atom and another particle. What is this particle?A. an alpha par
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:A

Explanation:

A nuclear reaction is balanced by ensuring that the Masses and charges of te reactants and products are exactly balanced on the left and right hand side of the reaction equation. If there are 60 mass units on the LHS and manganese has only 56 mass units then four mass units are left. If there is no charge on a neutron and there is a charge of 27 on the cobalt, then two charges are left. Four mass units and a charge of +2 corresponds to a helium which is actually an alpha particle.
