For the following electron-transfer reaction:

Chemistry
1 answer:

Answer:

1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)  

Explanation:

Main reaction: 2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq)

In the oxidation half reaction, the oxidation number increases:

Mn changes from 0, in the ground state to Mn²⁺.

The reduction half reaction occurs where the element decrease the oxidation number, because it is gaining electrons.

Silver changes from Ag⁺ to Ag.

1. The oxidation half-reaction is: Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

2. The reduction half-reaction is: Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)  

To balance the hole reaction, we need to multiply by 2, the second half reaction:

Mn(s) ⇄ Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

(Ag⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ ⇄ Ag(s)) . 2

2Ag⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s)  

Now we sum, and we can cancel the electrons:

2Ag⁺(aq) + Mn(s) + 2e⁻ ⇄ 2Ag(s) + Mn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

Ammonia, NH3 is a common base with Kb of 1.8 X 10-5. For a solution of 0.150 M NH3:
Vesnalui [34]

The concentrations : 0.15 M

pH=11.21

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The ionization of ammonia in water :

NH₃+H₂O⇒NH₄OH

NH₃+H₂O⇒NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

The concentrations of all species present in the solution = 0.15 M

Kb=1.8 x 10⁻⁵

M=0.15

\tt [OH^-]=\sqrt{Kb.M}\\\\(OH^-]=\sqrt{1.8\times 10^{-5}\times 0.15}\\\\(OH^-]=\sqrt{2.7\times 10^{-6}}=1.64\times 10^{-3}

\tt pOH=-log[OH^-]\\\\pOH=3-log~1.64=2.79\\\\pH=14-2.79=11.21
