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

Nitroglycerin (c3h5n3o9) is a powerful explosive. its decomposition may be represented by 4c3h5n3o9 → 6n2 12co2 10h2o o2 this re
professor190 [17]
The balanced chemical reaction describing this decomposition is as follows:
<span>4c3h5n3o9 .............> 6N2 + 12CO2 +10H2O + O2

From the periodic table:
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of carbon = 12 grams
Therefore:
mass of </span><span>C3H5N3O9 = 3(12) + 5(1) + 3(14) + 9(16) = 227 grams
mass of O2 = 2(16) = 32 grams

From the balanced chemical equation:
4(227) = 908 grams of </span>C3H5N3O9 produce 32 grams of O2. Therefore, to know the amount of oxygen produced from 4.5*10^2 grams <span>C3H5N3O9, all we need to do is cross multiplication as follows:
amount of oxygen = (4.5*10^2*32) / (908) = 15.859 grams</span>
