Why is a solution not a pure substance

1 answer:

8 0

It is not a pure substance, because a solution are mixed chemicals in a way that the molecules are not bonded with one another. Thus, separating them from compounds and elements, which are pure substances.

13. How many electrons are transferred in the following reaction? (The reaction is unbalanced.) Fe(s) + I'(aq) 12(s) + Fe3+(aq)

Nat2105 [25]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 6

Explanation :

Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is a reaction in which oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this oxidation state increases.

Reduction reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this oxidation state decreases.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe(s)+I^-(aq)\rightarrow I_2(s)+Fe^{3+}(aq)$

Half reactions of oxidation and reduction are :

Oxidation : $Fe(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}+3e^-$ ......(1)

Reduction : $2I^-(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow I_2$ .......(2)

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, we get:

Oxidation : $2Fe(s)\rightarrow 2Fe^{3+}+6e^-$ ......(1)

Reduction : $6I^-(aq)+6e^-\rightarrow 3I_2$ .......(2)

The overall balanced chemical reaction will be:

$2Fe(s)+6I^-(aq)\rightarrow 3I_2(s)+2Fe^{3+}(aq)$

From this reaction we conclude that the electrons are getting transferred from iron to iodine and the number of electrons transferred are 6 electrons.

Hence, the correct option is, (C) 6

Humans have three types of cone cells in their eyes, which are responsible for color vision. Each type absorbs a certain part of

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The frequency of this light is $6.98\times 10^{14} s^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

Wavelength of the light = $\lambda = 430 nm=4.30\times 10^{-7} m$

Speed of the light = c = $= 3\times 10^8 m/s$

Frequency of the light = $\nu$

$\nu =\frac{c}{\lambda }$

$\nu =\frac{3\times 10^8 m/s}{4.30\times 10^{-7} m}=6.98\times 10^{14} s^{-1}$

The frequency of this light is $6.98\times 10^{14} s^{-1}$ .

How do different types of waves make particles of matter move

Alborosie

That depends on the wave, if you're talking about sound, it makes matter move in a similar wavelength as them, a mountainous shape. Light however would make whatever matter it hits start to move in the same direction as the light's angle of approach.
