Remember LEO say GER. Loss electron Oxidation, Gain Electron reduction.

But in this equation, it is hard to see the gaining and losing to determine which is being oxidized and reduced. So, you can use another method. Oxidation means adding oxygen and removing Hydrogens. while reduction is the opposite. Because Zinc (Zn) is gaining oxygen to become ZnSO4, . Zn is being oxidized, which means H2SO4 is being reduced. This also meant because H2SO4 is being reduced, it is the oxidizing agent.

Match the chemical with the statement that best describes the observed change in the rate of the reaction when the concentration
maria [59]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the amount of H2O2 is doubled while KI is kept constant, the rate of reaction doubles.

When the amount of KI is doubled and the amount of H2O2 is halved, the rate stays nearly constant.

2H2O2 (aq) → O2(g) + 2H2O (l) ------------- first order kinetics reaction.

Catalysts are KI, FeCl3 only, KCl is not a catalyst. Order: KI < MnO2 < Pb < FeCl3.

H2O2 + I– -> IO– + H2O (Step 1)

H2O2 + IO– -> I– + H2O + O2 (Step 2)

It can be seen that the iodine ion (provided by the KI solution) is a product as well as a reactant.

02(g)2Fe? (aq) + 2 H(a) 2 H 2 Fe3 (aq) H2O2(aq) + 2 Fe,Taq) H02(aq) 2 Fe (aq) 2 H (aq)

Given the two half-cell reactions for copper and iron below
liraira [26]

Answer:

No, i will not use a water pipe consisting of the two metals

Explanation:

Looking at the reduction potential of the both metals, it is clear that an electrochemical cell is set up with iron as the anode and copper as the cathode.

This will make the iron to quickly corrode and eventually destroy the water pipe. It is better to have a set up in which another metal that is higher than iron in the electrochemical series is combined with it.

The elements silicon (atomic number 14) and chlorine (atomic number 17) are both in Period 3. Which is the more reactive element
Svetlanka [38]

Answer;

-Chlorine is more reactive than silicon

Explanation;

-As you move across a period, the nuclear charge will increase; the number of energy levels will stay the same, so there is a stronger and stronger attraction for the electrons.

-The electrons are being held more tightly as you move across a period. It becomes more and more difficult to lose electrons and consequently the reactivity of non metals increases as you go from left to right across the periodic table; Therefore; chlorine is more reactive than silicon.
