<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.

In an ecosystem, what do organisms and populations with similar needs compete<br>over?​
hram777 [196]

Answer:

In any ecosystem, organisms and populations with similar requirements for food, water, oxygen, or other resources may compete with each other for limited resources, access to which consequently constrains their growth and reproduction. Growth of organisms and population increases are limited by access to resources.

How much heat was transferred from 50.0 g of water if the temperature of the water went from 30.0 ° C to 55.0 °? The specific he
Lena [83]

Answer:

Heat transfer = Q = 62341.6 J

Explanation:

Given data:

Heat transfer = ?

Mass of water = 50.0 g

Initial temperature = 30.0°C

Final temperature = 55.0°C

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g.K

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 55.0°C -  30.0°C

ΔT = 25°C (25+273= 298 K)

Q = 50.0 g × 4.184 J/g.K ×298 K

Q = 62341.6 J

In the disproportionation reaction CI2 + H2Omc021-1.jpgHCIO + HCI, what describes the oxidation states of the substance Cl?
Sophie [7]
<span>Reaction: CI2 + H2O    ---->  HCIO + HCI

Oxidations states:

The oxitation state of Cl2 = 0, because the oxidation state of an atom alone or a molucule with one kind of atom is always 0.

The oxidation state of Cl in HClO is +1 because the oxidation state of H is + 1, the oxidation state of O is - 2, and the molecule is neutral, so  +1 + 1 - 2 = 0

The oxidation state of Cl in HCl is - 1, because the oxidation state of H is +1 and the molecule is neutral, so - 1 + 1 = 0.

Also, you shall remember that when an atom increases its oxidation state is is oxidized and when an atoms reduces its oxidations state it is reduced.

With that you conclude that the right option is the last statement: </span>Cl has an oxidation number of 0 in Cl2. It is then reduced to CI- with an oxidation number of –1 in HCl and is oxidized to Cl+ with an oxidation number +1 in HClO.
