What would be the oxidation and reduction half reactions for this equation?

Chemistry

Sedbober [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Fe(s) → Fe²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻   OXIDATION

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Mg(s)   REDUCTION

Explanation:

The redox reaction is: MgCl₂(aq) + Fe(s) → FeCl₂(aq) + Mg(s)

We need to know that elements in ground state have 0 as the oxidation state.

Iron in the reactants, and Mg in the products

In the magnessium chloride, the Mg acts with+2, so the oxidation state has decreased → REDUCTION

In the iron(II) chloride, the Fe acts with +2, so the oxidation statehas increased → OXIDATION

The half reactions are:

Fe(s) → Fe²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻   OXIDATION

Mg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Mg(s)   REDUCTION

Answer: Fire requires oxygen to burn. Water "smothers" fire and prevents it from acquiring more oxygen. Fire also requires heat, which cool water may prevent/remove.

Can you please help me and can you show your work please

Answer:

1. 25 moles water.

2. 41.2 grams of sodium hydroxide.

3. 0.25 grams of sugar.

4. 340.6 grams of ammonia.

5. 4.5x10²³ molecules of sulfur dioxide.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the mole-mass-particles relationships are studied by considering the Avogadro's number for the formula units and the molar mass for the mass of one mole of substance, we proceed as shown below:

1. Here, we use the Avogadro's number to obtain the moles in the given molecules of water:

1.5x10^{25}molecules*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molecules} =25 molH_2O

2. Here, since the molar mass of NaOH is 40.00 g/mol, we obtain:

1.2mol*\frac{40.00g}{1mol} =41.2g

3. Here, since the molar mass of C6H12O6 is 180.15 g/mol:

45g*\frac{1mol}{180.15g}=0.25g

4. Here, since the molar mass of ammonia is 17.03 g/mol:

20mol*\frac{17.03g}{1mol}=340.6g

5. Here, since the molar mass of SO2 is 64.06 g/mol:

48g*\frac{1mol}{64.06g} *\frac{6.022x10^{23}molecules}{1mol} =4.5x10^{23}molecules

Best regards!
