Which substance is oxidized and which is reduced in this reaction?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A) HBr oxidized; HCl reduced

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Cl₂ + 2HBr → 2HCl + Br₂

The given reaction is redox reaction because oxidation reduction take place.

Cl₂ is reduced from oxidation state 0 to -1 while HBr oxidized from -1 to 0.

Chlorine is oxidizing agent while HBr is reducing agent.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Oxidizing agents:

Oxidizing agents oxidize the other elements and itself gets reduced.

Reducing agents:

Reducing agents reduced the other element are it self gets oxidized

How many bananas are equal to 7.50 moles of bananas?​
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

4.52×10^24

Explanation:

N = n × Na

where; N = no. of bananas

n = no. of moles

Na = Avogadro's constant

Which is 6.02×10^23

N = 7.5 × 6.02×10^23

N =4.515×10^24

Use the following half-reactions to write three spontaneous reactions, calculate E°cell for each reaction, and rank the oxidizin
Ainat [17]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

1)

we know that

half cell with higher reduction potential is cathode

so

cathode :

N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20

anode :

Cr(s) ---> Cr+3 + 3e-

so

overall reaction is

3 N20 + 6H+ + 2 Cr ---> 3N2 + 3H20 + 2Cr+3

now

Eo cell = Eo cathode - Eo anode

so

EO cell = 1.77 + 0.74

Eo cell = 2.51 V

now

in this case

oxidizing agents are N20 and Cr+3

reducing agents are Cr and N2

higher the reduction potential , stronger the oxidizing agent

lower the reduction potential , stronger the reducing agent

so

oxidzing agents

N20 > Cr+3

reducing agents

Cr > N2

2)

cathode :

Au+ + e- --> Au

anode :

Cr ---> Cr+3 + 3e-

overall reaction

3Au+ + Cr ---> 3Au + Cr+3

Eo cell = 1.69 + 0.74

Eo cell = 2.43

now

oxidizing agents :

Au+ > Cr+3

reducing agents :

Cr > Au

3)

cathode :

N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20

andoe :

Au ---> Au+ + e-

overall

2 Au + N20 + 2H+ --> 2 Au+ + N2 + H20

Eo cell = 1.77 - 1.69

Eo cell = 0.08

oxidizing agents

N20 > Au+

reducing agents

Au > N2

How many grams are in 32.2 L of CO2?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

63.25 grams of CO₂

Explanation:

To convert from liters to grams, we first need to convert from liters to moles. To do this, we divide the liters by 22.4, the amount of liters of a gas per mole.

32.2 / 22.4

= 1.4375 moles of CO₂

Now we want to convert from moles to grams. To do this, we multiply the moles by the molar mass of CO₂. The total molar mass can be found on the periodic table by adding up the molar mass of carbon (12) and two oxygen (32).

12 + 32 = 44

Now we want to multiply the moles by the molar mass.

1.4375 • 44

= 63.25 grams of CO₂

This is your answer.

Hope this helps!

Julie takes a cold glass of clear, colorless liquid out of the refrigerator and puts it on the table. As the liquid warms up to
marysya [2.9K]
The bubbles indicate that there is a gas dissolved in the liquid, which may remain dissolved when the liquid is very cold, inside the refrigerator.


When the temperature of the liquid increases, it reduces its ability to dissolve the gas and the gas escapes (bubbles) from the liquid.


At the end, the behavior of the liquid permits  you to conclude that the  liquid is a mixture because it has a gas dissolved in it.
