For a particular redox reaction, Cr is oxidized to CrO 2 − 4 and Ag + is reduced to Ag . Complete and balance the equation for t

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

6Ag⁺ + Cr + 8OH⁻ → 6Ag + CrO₄²⁻ + 4H₂O

Explanation:

We can balance the redox reaction of Cr and Ag⁺, in terms of two half-reactions, one for Ag⁺ and other for Cr:

Ag⁺ → Ag

In the above equation we need to balance the number of electrons, we know that the Ag⁺ is being reduced to Ag, so the reaction is:

Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag (1)

Now, we need to balance the half-reaction of Cr:

Cr → CrO₄²⁻

From above, we know that the Cr is being oxidated to CrO₄²⁻, so we need to balance the number of electrons and the number of oxygen atoms. The Cr⁰ is being oxidated to Cr⁶⁺, so for the electron balance, we need to add 6e⁻ to the right side of the equation. Since the reaction is in a basic medium, the oxygen atoms will be balanced with OH⁻ ions as follows:

Cr + OH⁻ → CrO₄²⁻ + 6e⁻

The hydrogen atoms will be balanced using H₂O molecules:

Cr + OH⁻ → CrO₄²⁻ + 6e⁻ + H₂O

The balanced equation is:

Cr + 8OH⁻ → CrO₄²⁻ + 6e⁻ + 4H₂O (2)

Since the reaction (1) involves 1 electron and the reaction (2) involves 6 electrons, by increasing the reaction (1) six times and by the addition of the two reactions (1 and 2) we can have the net redox reaction:

6*(Ag⁺ + e⁻ → Ag)

Cr + 8OH⁻ → CrO₄²⁻ + 6e⁻ + 4H₂O

6Ag⁺ + Cr + 8OH⁻ → 6Ag + CrO₄²⁻ + 4H₂O

Therefore, the net equation is: 6Ag⁺ + Cr + 8OH⁻ → 6Ag + CrO₄²⁻ + 4H₂O.

I hope it helps you!

A scientist finds that one volume of an unknown gas X combines with two volumes of another gas Y to form two volumes of a new ga

MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Gas X

Explanation:

The given reaction can be written in the form of chemical equation as shown below as:

$X+2Y\rightarrow 2XY_2$

According to law of conservation of mass, the moles of each substance in the reaction must be equal on both reactant and product side.

Also, the question asks for the gas which is diatomic. $XY_2$ cannot be diatomic as the formula contains 3 atoms.

Between gas X and gas Y , X has to be diatomic for the reaction to balance as:

$X_2+2Y\rightarrow 2XY_2$

Molarity to percent by mass. Convert 1.672 mol/L MgCl2(aq) solution to percent by mass of MgCl2 in the solution. The solution de

nignag [31]

Answer:

$\%m/m=14\%$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the molarity of magnesium chloride (molar mass = 95.211 g/mol) is 1.672 mol/L and we know the density of the solution, we can first compute the concentration in g/L as shown below:

$[MgCl_2]=1.672\frac{molMgCl_2}{L}*\frac{95.211gMgCl_2}{1molMgCl_2}=159.2\frac{gMgCl_2}{L}$

Next, since the density of the solution is 1.137 g/mL, we can compute the concentration in g/g as shown below:

$[MgCl_2]=159.2\frac{gMgCl_2}{L}*\frac{1L}{1000mL}*\frac{1mL}{1.137g}=0.14$

Which is also the by-mass fraction and in percent it turns out:

$\%m/m=0.14*100\%\\\\\%m/m=14\%$

Best regards!
