In addition to mass balance, oxidation-reduction reactions must be balanced such that the number of electrons lost in the oxidat

ion equals the number of electrons gained in the reduction. This balancing can be done by two methods: the half-reaction method or the oxidation number method. The half-reaction method balances the electrons lost in the oxidation half-reaction with the electrons gained in the reduction half-reaction. In either method H2O(l), OH−(aq), and H+(aq) may be added to complete the mass balance. Which substances are used depends on the reaction conditions.

Answer:

OH−(aq), and H+(aq)

Explanation:

Redox reactions may occur in acidic or basic environments. Usually, if a reaction occurs in an acidic environment, hydrogen ions are shown as being part of the reaction system. For instance, in the reduction of the permanganate ion;

MnO4^-(aq) + 8H^+(aq) +5e-------> Mn^2+(aq) + 4H2O(l)

The appearance of hydrogen ion in the reaction equation implies that the process takes place under acidic reaction conditions.

For reactions that take place under basic conditions, the hydroxide ion is part of the reaction equation.

Hence hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion are included in redox reaction half equations depending on the conditions of the reaction whether acidic or basic.

In the reaction BaCO3 + 2HNO3 + Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O, what mass of Ba(NO3)2 can be formed by combining 55 g BaCO3 and 26 g HNO3
Nataliya [291]

From the stoichiometry of the reaction, the mass of barium nitrate produced is 54.9 g.

<h3>Stoichiometry</h3>

The term stoichiometry refers to mass - volume relationships. Stoichiometry can be used to calculate the amount, mass or volume of reactants and products from the balanced reaction equation.

The equation of the reaction is written as follows;

BaCO3 + 2HNO3 ------>  Ba(NO3)2 + CO2 + H2O

Number of moles of BaCO3  = 55 g/197.34 g/mol = 0.28 moles

Number of moles of HNO3 = 26 g/63.01 g/mol = 0.41 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of BaCO3 reacts with 2 moles of HNO3

0.28 moles of BaCO3 reacts with 0.28 moles ×  2 moles/1 mole = 0.56 moles

There is not enough HNO3 hence it is the limiting reactant.

Number of moles of Ba(NO3)2 produced  is obtained from;

2 moles of HNO3  yields 1 mole of Ba(NO3)2

0.41 moles of HNO3  yields 0.41 moles × 1 mole/2 moles

= 0.21 moles of Ba(NO3)2

Mass of  Ba(NO3)2  = 0.21 moles  × 261.337 g/mol = 54.9 g

How many mL of a 1.48 M calcium hydroxide solution are needed to neutralize 36.0 mL of a 1.63 M hydrochloric acid solution
Lelechka [254]

The volume (in mL) of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)₂ needed for the reaction is 19.8 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ —> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, HCl (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>
  • Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 1.48 M
  • Volume of acid, HCl (Va) = 36 mL
  • Molarity of acid, HCl (Ma) = 1.63 M
  • Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(1.63 × 36) / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

58.68 / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

Cross multiply

2 × 1.48 × Vb = 58.68

2.96 × Vb = 58.68

Divide both side by 2.96

Vb = 58.68 / 2.96

Vb = 19.8 mL

The solubility of N2 in blood at 37°C and a partial pressure of 0.80 atm is 5.6 ✕ 10−4 mol·L−1. A deep-sea diver breathes compre
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

0.0126 moles are released

Explanation:

Using Henry's law, where the amount of dissolved gas in a liquid is proportional to its partial pressure above the liquid:

S = k×P

<em>Where S is solubility (5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹), k is Henry's constant and P is partial pressure (0.80atm)</em>

Replacing:

<em>5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹ / 0.80atm = 7x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹atm⁻¹</em>

Thus, with Henry's constant, solubility of N₂ when partial pressure is 3.8atm is:

S = 7x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹atm⁻¹ × 3.8atm

S = 2.66x10⁻³molL⁻¹

Thus, when the deepd-sea diver has a pressure of 3.8amt, moles dissolved are:

6.0L × 2.66x10⁻³molL⁻¹ = <em>0.01596 moles of N₂</em>

At the surface, pressure is 0.80atm and solubility is 5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹, moles dissolved are:

6.0L × 5.6x10⁻⁴molL⁻¹ = <em>3.36x10⁻³mol</em>

Thus, released moles are:

0.01596mol - 3.36x10⁻³mol = <em>0.0126 moles are released</em>
