calcium reacts with fluorine to produce calcium fluoride. how does oxidation and reduction take place in this reaction?

Assoli18 [71]

The oxidation is occurring on Calcium ions as it release one electron and reduction will be occurring on fluorine ion as it accepts one electron.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An element will undergo oxidation and form a positive ion on releasing one or more electrons from its valence shell. While reduction is occurred in a chemical reaction, then the element will be forming a negative ion with the acceptance of one or more electrons in its valence shell.

So in the given process of calcium fluoride, the one electron from the valence shell of calcium will be released making it as $c a^{+}$ ions and this is termed as oxidation process. This one electron will be getting accepted by the fluorine ion and thus it will convert to $F^{-}$ ions. This process of acceptance of electrons is termed as reduction.

2. Nitric oxide contains 46.66% nitrogen and 53.34% oxygen. Water contains 11.21% hydrogen and 88.79% oxygen. Ammonia contains 1

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The law of reciprocal proportions states that if two elements react individually with a given weight of a third element, the ratio of the masses with which they combine with the third element are either the same or a simple multiple of the ratio of the masses with which they combine with each other

The compounds formed includes;

1) Nitric oxide, NO

Nitrogen = 46.66% × 30.01 = 14

Oxygen = 53.34% × 30.01 = 16

2) Water, H₂O

Hydrogen = 11.21% × 18.01528 = 2

Oxygen = 88.79% × 18.01528 ≈ 16

3) Ammonia, NH₃

Hydrogen = 17.78% × 17.031 ≈ 3

Nitrogen = 82.22% × 17.031 ≈ 14

The ratio of nitrogen to oxygen in nitric oxide = 14:16 = 7:8

The ratio of nitrogen to hydrogen in ammonia = 14:3

The ratio in which hydrogen and oxygen combine with nitrogen = 3/16

The ratio of hydrogen and oxygen combine with each other in water = 2/16

Therefore, the ratio with which hydrogen and oxygen combine with nitrogen, is (2/3) times the ratio with which they combine with each other, which verifies the law of reciprocal proportions

A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of sodium hydroxide. The concentration o

taurus [48]

Answer:

The concentration the student should write down in her lab is 2.2 mol/L

Explanation:

Atomic mass of the elements are:

Na: 22.989 u

S: 32.065 u

O: 15.999 u

Molar mass of sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3 = (2*22.989 + 2*32.065 + 3*15.999) g/mol = 158.105 g/mol.

Mass of Na2S2O3 taken = (19.440 - 2.2) g = 17.240 g.

For mole(s) of Na2S2O3 = (mass taken)/(molar mass)

= (17.240 g)/(158.105 g/mol) = 0.1090 mole.

Volume of the solution = 50.29 mL = (50.29 mL)*(1 L)/(1000 mL)

= 0.05029 L.

To find the molar concentration of the sodium thiosulfate solution prepared we use the formula:

= (moles of sodium thiosulfate)/(volume of solution in L)

= (0.1090 mole)/(0.05029 L)

= 2.1674 mol/L
