Which process is an oxidation?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>The problem has to do with oxidation states of the matter. The oxidation state of oxygen will always be -2 with the exception of peroxides which will have a state of -1. The overall balanced state of chemical compounds will be 0, so the oxidation state of Mn in MnO2 will be +4. The oxidation state of MnO4- will then be +7 to balance out to the negative one charge. The state change from +4 to +7 is 3, thus three electrons have to be lost in order for this to happen; a loss of a charge of -3 results in an increase of charge of 3. Oxidation is always the process of 'losing' electrons.

A system gains 652 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to +241 kJ. How much work is done?

levacccp [35]

Answer:

-411 kj

Explanation:

We solve by using this formula

∆U = ∆Q + ∆W

This formula is the first law of thermodynamics

Change in internal energy U = +241

Heat gained by system Q = 652

Putting the value into the equation

+241 = 652 + W

Workdone = 241 - 652

Workdone = -411 kj

Since work done is negative it means that work was done by the system

If a bag of peas weighs 454 grams, how many peas would be in the bag?

OverLord2011 [107]

In a bag of peas that weighs 454 grams, there are between 1261 and 4540 peas.

The average pea weighs between 0.1 and 0.36 grams.

If we take the lower value (0.1 g/pea), the number of peas in 454 g is:

$454 g \times \frac{1pea}{0.1 g} = 4540pea$

If we take the higher value (0.36 g/pea), the number of peas in 454 g is:

$454 g \times \frac{1pea}{0.36 g} \approx 1261pea$

In a bag of peas that weighs 454 grams, there are between 1261 and 4540 peas.
