Answer:
H2C2O4.2H20 → CO2 + CO + H2O
Explanation:
Oxalic acid crystals are nothing but dehydrated oxalic acid (H2C2O4 . 2H2O).
On heating, the water of crystallization is lost first. Then, the dehydrated oxalic acid decomposes into carbon dioxide(CO2), carbon monoxide(CO) and water(H2O).
Equations involved :
H2C2O4 . 2H2O → H2C2O4 + 2H2O
H2C2O4 → CO2 + HCOOH (FORMIC ACID)
HCOOH → CO + H2O
Overall equation : H2C2O4.2H20 → CO2 + CO + H2O
Explanation:
Steps followed to practice laboratory safety during the experiment are as follows.
- Used tongs or a test tube holder to hold materials over the Bunsen burner flame.
- Wore gloves and goggles.
- Made careful observations of the products and reactants.
- Did not smell the gases produced.
When we heat a test tube over bunsen flame then the tube gets hot and when we hold it with bare hands then out hands will burn. Therefore, it is advised to hold test tube with the help of tongs or a holder so that our hands did not burn.
We should also wear gloves and goggles so that any acid would not spill directly on our hands, skin and eyes as it can affect or damage the skin severely.
Careful observations were made so that correct calculations about the experiment can be carried out.
It is also advised that we should not smell the gases produced but gases move freely from one place to another in a laboratory or any where else.
So, we can try to avoid it by covering our mouth with a cloth but we cannot stop it. If we keep on inhaling the gases produced in a laboratory then it can also lead to severe disease or defect in the human body.
The beta particle is represented by the Greek letter <span>β. The beta particle is one of the particles that are emitted during radioactive decay. Beta particles are emitted in the process of beta decay. A beta particle can be in form of an electron or a positron. </span><span />
