Oxidation reaction
In ---> In³⁺ + 3e ---1)
reduction reaction
Cd²⁺ + 2e ---> Cd ---2)
when balancing the reactions, electrons have to be balanced. to balance the electrons multiple 1st reaction by 2 and 2nd reaction by 3
1) x 2
2) x 3
2In ---> 2In³⁺ + 6e
3Cd²⁺ + 6e ---> 3Cd
add the 2 equations to obtain the overall reaction
2In + 3Cd²⁺ ---> 2In³⁺ + 3Cd
Answer:
Double replacement reaction.
Explanation:
The Na and Ag atoms both (double) trade places (replacement) with each other.
Yes. Heating up the solvent gives the molecules more kinetic energy. The more rapid motion means that the solvent molecules collide with the solute with greater frequency and the collisions occur with more force. Both factors increase the rate at which the solute dissolves.
It allows you to determine the relation between the reactants and the products.
Answer: 4.21×10⁻⁸
Explanation:
1) Assume a general equation for the ionization of the weak acid:
Let HA be the weak acid, then the ionization equation is:
HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻
2) Then, the expression for the ionization constant is:
Ka = [H⁺][A⁻] / [HA]
There, [H⁺] = [A⁻], and [HA] = 0.150 M (data given)
3) So, you need to determine [H⁺] which you do from the pH.
By definition, pH = - log [H⁺]
And from the data given pH = 4.1
⇒ 4.10 = - log [H⁺] ⇒ [H⁺] = antilog (- 4.10) = 7.94×10⁻⁵
4) Now you have all the values to calculate the expression for Ka:
ka = 7.94×10⁻⁵ × 7.94×10⁻⁵ / 0.150 = 4.21×10⁻⁸
