Wading birds live successfully in the swamp because : B) Their long legs allow them to wade in the waters without getting wet.

Explanation:

Wading birds are common habitat in swamp and muddy areas.

Some wadding birds are crane, egret, heron, sandpipers and ibis

Some characteristics of wading birds are:

  • long, thin legs. Also, they have large toes
  • long bills and long strong necks

Long legs of wadding birds allow them to walk easily in wetland without getting their feathers wet.

They live in water or near water, so their food are mainly aquatic insects, small amphibians and fishes.

Wading birds are also called shorebirds.

Balance the following redox reaction in acidic solution. Zn(s)+MnO−4(aq)→ Zn+2(aq)+Mn+2(aq)
devlian [24]

Answer:

2MnO₄⁻ + 5Zn + 16H⁺ → 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O + 5Zn²⁺

Explanation:

To balance a redox reaction in an acidic medium, we simply follow some rules:

  1. Split the reaction into an oxidation and reduction half.
  2. By inspecting, balance the half equations with respect to the charges and atoms.
  3. In acidic medium, one atom of H₂O is used to balance up each oxygen atom and one H⁺ balances up each hydrogen atom on the deficient side of the equation.
  4. Use electrons to balance the charges. Add the appropriate numbers of electrons the side with more charge and obtain a uniform charge on both sides.
  5. Multiply both equations with appropriate factors to balance the electrons in the two half equations.
  6. Add up the balanced half equations and cancel out any specie that occur on both sides.
  7. Check to see if the charge and atoms are balanced.

Solution

                            Zn + MnO₄⁻ → Zn²⁺ + Mn²⁺

The half equations:

                      Zn → Zn²⁺                          Oxidation half

                      MnO₄⁻ → Mn²⁺                  Reduction half

Balancing of atoms(in acidic medium)

                     Zn → Zn²⁺

                    MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ → Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O

Balancing of charge

                   Zn → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻

                    MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ + 5e⁻→ Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O

Balancing of electrons

         Multiply the oxidation half by 5 and reduction half by 2:

                          5Zn → 5Zn²⁺ + 10e⁻

                        2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ + 10e⁻→ 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O

Adding up the two equations gives:

              5Zn + 2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ + 10e⁻ → 5Zn²⁺ + 10e⁻ + 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O

The net equation gives:

         5Zn + 2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ → 5Zn²⁺ + 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O
