Part V Write the (a) half reaction of oxidation, (b) half reaction of reduction, & (c) the balanced redox reaction for all o
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. Oxidation : 2O + 4e^- ------> 2O^2-

b. Reduction: 2Sr - 4e- -------> Sr^2+

c. Balanced redox reaction

2Sr + O2 ------------> 2Sr O

Oxidation and reduction can be defined by various means, addition of oxygen, removal of hydrogen, removal of electrons. For this reaction, this definition is used, oxidation is the loss of electrons while reduction is the gaining of electrons.

In (a) oxidation half reaction, the valency of oxygen is zero and then moves into lossing two electrons resulting into -2 valency.

In (b) reduction half reaction, the valency of Sr is zero and gains electrons resulting into valency of 2.

In the overall redox reaction, Sr and O2 with valency of 0 each reacts together and form SrO with valency of 2 and -2 respectively, which gives 0 and then balances the equation.

how many grams of oxygen gas are needed to produce 10.0 grams of carbon dioxide according to the balanced equation of CH4
Alinara [238K]
Molar mass of :

O2 = 16 * 2 = 32 g/mol

CO2 = 12 + 16 * 2 = 44 g/mol

<span>Balanced chemical equation :
</span>
1 CH4 + 2 O2 = 1 CO2 + 2 H2O
               ↓              ↓
             2 moles     1 mole

2* 32 g O2 ----------> 1* 44 g CO2
     x g O2 ------------> 10.0 g CO2

44 x = 2 * 32*10.0

44 x = 640

x =  \frac{640}{44}

x = 14.54 g of O2

What are humic acids?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Los ácidos húmicos son restos de vida orgánica totalmente descompuestos. Son moléculas de cadena larga que son de alto peso y de color marrón oscuro. No son un solo ácido. Más bien, "ácido húmico" es un término amplio que se refiere a una mezcla compleja de muchos ácidos diferentes que son solubles en soluciones alcalinas. Existen de forma natural como parte del ciclo de vida de la naturaleza en suelos, océanos y arroyos. Cómo se forman?

Cuando las plantas y los animales mueren, sus moléculas quedan disponibles en el suelo para ser utilizadas por otros organismos. Bacterias, hongos, protozoos, lombrices de tierra e incluso insectos consumen el material fresco. Después de largos períodos de tiempo, cuando la materia en descomposición se ha comido y transformado a través de varios ciclos, lo que queda es un material resistente que resiste una mayor descomposición, llamado humus. (Este proceso se conoce como "humificación"). El humus es un término general que se refiere a compuestos estables y altamente complejos que son resistentes a una mayor descomposición. Y el humus consta de tres componentes: ácidos húmicos, ácidos fúlvicos y humus. Los ácidos húmicos y fúlvicos han demostrado ser invaluables para entornos de suelo saludables, particularmente por sus contribuciones a la estructura del suelo y la transferencia de nutrientes entre el suelo y las plantas.
