K2Cr2O7 + 14HCl → 2CrCl3 + 2KCl + 3Cl2 + 7H2O

the correct option is :

K2Cr2O7, because the oxidation number of Cr changes from +6 to +3.

Oxidation number of Cr in K2Cr2O7 is:

K2Cr2O7 = 2K + 2 Cr + 7 O

= 2(+1) + 2Cr + 7(-2)

= 2 + 2Cr -14

[total charge on K2Cr2O7 = 0], Hence;

2 + 2Cr -14 = 0

2Cr -12 = 0

2Cr = 12

Cr = 12/2

Cr = +6

Oxidation number of Cr in CrCl3 is:

CrCl3 = Cr + 3Cl = 0

Cr + 3(-1) = 0

Cr -3 = 0

Cr = +3

Hence Cr is changing its oxidation number from

+6 in K2Cr2O7 to +3 in CrCl3.

Since the oxidation number of Cr [ +6 → +3] is decreasing here,

Cr is getting reduced.

so K2Cr2O7 is an oxidizing agent,as it is getting itself reduced and oxidizes others.

You need to make an aqueous solution of 0.182 M aluminum sulfate for an experiment in lab, using a 250 mL volumetric flask. How

Ksju [112]

Answer:

Hence, 15.99 g of solid Aluminum Sulfate should be added in 250 mL of Volumetric flask.

Explanation:

To make 0.187 M of Aluminum Sulfate solution in a 250 mL (0.250 L) Volumetric flask

The molar mass of Aluminum Sulfate = 342.15 g/mol

Using the molarity formula:-

Molarity = Number of moles/Volume of solution in a liter

Number of moles = Given weight/ molar mass

Molarity = (Given weight/ molar mass)/Volume of solution in liter

0.187 M = (Given weight/342.15 g/mol)/0.250 L

Given weight = 15.99 g

Describe the protons, electrons, and neutrons of an atom of hydrogen-2.

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

However, various hydrogen isotopes, such as H-2, have one proton and one neutron; H-3 has one proton and two neutrons, etc. The sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus is its atomic mass. Thus, the atomic mass of the H-2 isotope is two, the atomic mass of the H-3 isotope is three, and so forth.

Type the correct answer in the box. Express your answer to three significant figures. This balanced equation shows the reaction

Ratling [72]

Answer:

514.5 g.

Explanation:

The balanced equation of the reaction is: 2NaOH + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.

It is clear that every 2.0 moles of NaOH react with 1.0 mole of H₂SO₄ to produce 1.0 mole of Na₂SO₄ and 2.0 moles of 2H₂O.

Since NaOH is in excess, so H₂SO₄ is the limiting reactant.

We need to calculate the no. of moles of 355.0 g of H₂SO₄:

n of H₂SO₄ = mass/molar mass = (355.0 g)/(98.0 g/mol) = 3.622 mol.

Using cross multiplication:

∵ 1.0 mol H₂SO₄ produces → 1.0 mol of Na₂SO₄.

∴ 3.622 mol H₂SO₄ produces → 3.662 mol of Na₂SO₄.

Now, we can get the theoretical mass of Na₂SO₄:

∴ mass of Na₂SO₄ = no. of moles x molar mass = (3.662 mol)(142.04 g/mol) = 514.5 g.
