Sulfur has the coefficient of 2, and nothing else. This indicates Sulfur has 2 atoms. 


<span>Oxygen on the other hand, has a subscript of 2, as well as the coefficient of 2. Multiplying those, and you see Oxygen has 4 atoms. 
</span>
So your answer is 2

Also remember there is a 2 in front of S meaning there are 2 Sulfurs. 
<span>If it was S02 it would be 1 Sulfur as there is no number in front of sulfer. </span>

<span>Remember the number in front of a element, represents how many atoms there are :)</span>

Which of the following values would you expect for the ratio of half-lives for a reaction with starting concentrations of 0.05M
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The expected ratio of half-lives for a reaction will be 5:1.

Explanation:

Integrated rate law  for zero order kinetics is given as:

k=\frac{1}{t}([A_o]-[A])

[A_o] = initial concentration

[A]=concentration at time t

k = rate constant

if, [A]=\frac{1}{2}[A_o]

t=t_{\frac{1}{2}}, the equation (1) becomes:

t_{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{[A_o]}{2k}

Half life when concentration was 0.05 M=t_{\frac{1}{2}}

Half life when concentration was 0.01 M=t_{\frac{1}{2}}'

Ratio of half-lives will be:

\frac{t_{\frac{1}{2}}}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}'}=\frac{\frac{[0.05 M]}{2k}}{\frac{[0.01 M]}{2k}}=\frac{5}{1}

The expected ratio of half-lives for a reaction will be 5:1.

Which best describes the reducing agent in the reaction below? Cl2(aq) + 2Br(aq) 2Cl(aq) + Br2(aq) Bromine (Br) loses an electro
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Bromine (Br) loses an electron, so it is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

A reducing agent also called a reducer, is known to be an electron donor. A reducing agent is oxidized, because it loses electrons in the redox reaction.

A oxidising agent also called a oxidant or oxidiser, is known to be an electron acceptor. A oxidising agent is reduced, because it gains electrons in the redox reaction.

Cl2(aq) + 2Br-(aq) --> 2Cl-(aq) + Br2(aq)

Half ionic equations,

Cl2(aq) + 2e- --> 2Cl-(aq)

2Br-(aq) --> Br2(aq) + 2e-

Reducing agent = Br-

Oxidizing agent = Cl2
