Write a balanced half-reaction describing the reduction of gaseous dioxygen to aqueous oxide anions.

Chemistry
1 answer:
maksim [4K]3 years ago
8 0

<u>Answer:</u> The balanced half reaction is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

When oxygen gas is reduced to oxide ions, the number of electron transferred are 2

The chemical equation for the reduction of oxygen gas to oxide ions follows:

O_2+2e^-\rightarrow 2O^{2-}

Hence, the balanced half reaction is written above.

What is the product if an atom of Po-209<br> undergoes alpha decay?
g100num [7]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

Lead-205 (Pb-205)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • An atom of Po-209

We are supposed to identify its product after an alpha decay;

  • Polonium-209 has a mass number of 209 and an atomic number of 84.
  • When an element undergoes an alpha decay, the mass number decreases by 4 while the atomic number decreases by 2.
  • Therefore, when Po-209 undergoes alpha decay it results to the formation of a product with a mass number of 205 and atomic number of 82.
  • The product from this decay is Pb-205, because Pb-205 has a mass number of 205 and atomic number 82.
  • The equation for the decay is;

²⁰⁹₈₄Po → ²⁰⁵₈₂Pb + ⁴₂He

  • Note; An alpha particle is represented by a helium nucleus, ⁴₂He.

How many kj of heat are needed to completely melt 32.3 g of h2o, given that the water is at its melting point? the heat of fusio
timurjin [86]

Answer: fourth option, 10.8 kJ


Explanation:


The <em>heat of fusion</em>, also named latent heat of fusion, is the amount of heat energy required to change the state of a substance from solid to liquid (at constant pressure).


The data of the <em>heat of fusions</em> of the substances are reported in tables and they can be shown either per mole or per gram of substance.


In this case we have that the<em> heat of fusion for water </em>is reported per mole: <em>6.02 kJ/mole</em>.


The formula to calculate <em>how many kJ of heat (total heat) are needed to completely melt 32.3 g of water, given that the water is at its melting point</em> is:

  • Heat = number of moles × heat of fusion

The calculations are:

  • number of moles = mass / molar mass

        number of moles = 32.3 g / 18.015 g/mol = 1.79 mol

       

  • Heat = 1.79 mol × 6.02 kJ / mol = 10.8 kJ ← answer

What has to be true about available resources for competition to exist?
Mila [183]

Answer:

Limited

Explanation:

For competition to exist within a population or between population, shared or common resources that organisms holds very important must be very limited and scared.

Competition is a struggle between organisms for limited resources in the ecosystem.

  • It is an interaction between organisms in which one of them is harmed.
  • Competition originates from limited supply of shared or mutual resources among organisms.
  • When competition is between organisms from different population, it is called an interspecific competition.
  • Competition between organisms within the same population, i.e of the same species is intraspecific competition.

A 15.0 L rigid container was charged with 0.5 atm of Krypton gas and 1.5 atm of chlorine gas at 350 C. The krypton and chlorine
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The mass of krypton tetrachloride that can be produced assuming 100% yield is mathematically given as

molar mass=33.29g

<h3>What mass of krypton tetrachloride can be produced assuming 100% yield?</h3>

Generally, the equation for ideal gas is mathematically given as

PV=nRT

Therefore

n=(0.50)(15.)/0.082*623

n=0.147mol

Hence for clorine

n=0.441mol

Given the reaction

Kr+2cl2---->KrCL4

Hence

molar mass=225.60*0.147

molar mass=33.29g
