<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxidizing agent is defined as the chemical reagent which helps the other chemical compound to get oxidized and itself gets reduced. The oxidation state for these species gets reduced because they are undergoing reduction reaction.

For the given chemical equation:

K_2Cr_2O_7+14HCl\rightarrow 2CrCl_3+2KCl+3Cl_2+7H_2O

Oxidation state of Chromium is getting reduced from +6 to +3 and oxidation state of chlorine getting increased from -1 to 0.

Hence, K_2Cr_2O_7 acts like and oxidizing agent because it is itself getting reduced to CrCl_3

Therefore, the correct answer is Option b.

juin [17]

Answer : The formic acid pressure is, 99 torr

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

                            HCOOH(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+H_2(g)

Initial pressure        a                   0              0

At time 't'                (a-x)                 x              x

According to the Dalton's law,

P_{Total}=P_{HCOOH}+P_{CO_2}+P_{H_2}

P_{Total}=(a-x)+x+x=a+x    .........(1)

As we are given that:

Initial pressure = a = 220 torr

P_{Total}=319torr

Now put the value of 'a' in equation 1, we get:

P_{Total}=a+x

319torr=220torr+x

x=99torr

Thus, the formic acid pressure is, 99 torr

According to Le Châtelier’s Principle, the amount of solid reactant or product present does not have an impact on the equilibriu
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, any disturbance caused in an equilibrium reaction will tend to shift the equilibrium in a direction away from the disturbance.

For example,   CaCO_{3}(s) + CO_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) \rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}(aq) + 2HCO^{-}_{3}(aq)

Hence, expression for equilibrium constant will be as follows.

        K_{eq} = \frac{[Ca^{2+}][HCO^{-}_{3}]^{2}}{[CO_{2}][H_{2}O]}

Since, the concentration for a solid substance is considered as 1 or unity. Therefore, adding or removing a solid will not affect the equilibrium.

Thus, we can conclude that according to Le Châtelier’s Principle, the amount of solid reactant or product present does not have an impact on the equilibrium because the solid does not appear in the equilibrium constant, so adding or removing solid has no effect.

Which isotope has the greatest number of protons?
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The isotope with the greatest number of protons is:

  • <u>option D:  Pu-239, with 94 protons</u>

Explanation:

The number of <em>protons</em> is the atomic number and is a unique number for each type of element.

You can tell the number of protons searching the element in a periodic table and reading its atomic number.

Thus, this is how you tell the number of protons or each isotope

Sample       Chemical symbol  Element       atomic number   # of protons

A Pa-238       Pa                         protactinium         91                        91

B U-240         U                          uranium                 92                       92

C Np-238       Np                        neptunium            93                       93

D Pu-239        Pu                        plutonium              94                       94
