$NO_2 + H_2 \to NH_3 + H_2 O$

<u /> $2NO_2 + 7H_2 \to 2NH_3 + 4H_2 O$

NO2 + H2 ----> NH3 + H2O

N(+IV) + 7e -----> N(-III) |2
H2(0) - 2e ----> 2H(+I) |7

after: 2NO2 + 7H2 ----> 2NH3 + 4H2O

Kamila [148]

Answer:

$698 \ THz$

Explanation:

Data provided as per the question below:-

Wavelength = 430.nm

The computation of the frequency of the light is shown below:-

Frequency = Velocity of light ÷ Wavelength

The Velocity of light = $= {3.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s}$

Wavelength = 430 nm = $4.30 \times 10^-^7$ m

Frequency = $\frac{3.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s}{4.30 \times 10^-^7}$

$= 6.98 \times 10^1^4 \ hz$

$= 6.98 \times 10^2 \ Thz$

= $698 \ THz$

Therefore for determining the frequency we simply applied the above formula.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the reduction of bismuth oxide ion to bismuth ion in basic aqueous solution. Be sure to add p

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

$3H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+6OH^-$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the required half-reaction, we start by setting it up from bismuth (V) oxide ion to bismuth (III) ion:

$BiO_3^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}$

Thus, next realize that the oxidation state of Bi in BiO3^- is 5+ because oxygen is 2- (-2*3+x=-1;x=-1+6;x=+5), so we obtain:

$(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}$

Thereafter, we realize three water molecules are needed on the right in order to balance the oxygens and consequently 6 hydrogen atoms on the left to balance hydrogen:

$6H^++(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+3H_2O$

Now, since the balance is is basic media, we add six molecules of hydroxide ions in order to produce water with the hydrogen ones:

$6OH^-+6H^++(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+3H_2O+6OH^-\\\\6H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+3H_2O+6OH^-\\\\6H_2O-3H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+6OH^-$

Then, we accommodate the waters to obtain:

$3H_2O+(Bi^{5+}O_3)^-\rightarrow Bi^{3+}+6OH^-$

Best regards!
