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.

Is condensation of ethanol a physical change or a chemical change
tigry1 [53]

Answer: Physical change

Explanation: Condensation is the phase change of a gas to the liquid state. There is no formation of new products so it does not undergoes chemical change. Any phase change is considered a physical change.

If an element has two isotopes, what is the atomic mass if one of the isotopes has a mass of 15.000 amu and makes up 5.000% of t
olasank [31]
The atomic mass of element is the weighted average atomic mass of the element with respect to the abundance of the isotopes of that element 
atomic mass is the sum of the products of the mass of isotopes by their percentage abundance 
atomic mass = 15.000 amu x 5.000 % + 16.000 amu x 95.000 % 
                     = 0.7500 + 15.200
atomic mass of element is therefore 15.950
