Balance the following half reaction in basic conditions. Then, indicate the coefficients for H2O and OH– for the balanced half r

Ugo [173]

Answer:

The ballance half reactions are:

Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Mg

6OH⁻ + Si → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

Coefficients for H2O and OH– are 3 for H₂O (in products side) and 6 for OH⁻ (in reactants side)

Explanation:

Si (s) + Mg(OH)₂ (s) → Mg (s) + SiO₃²⁻ (aq)

Let's see the oxidations number.

As any element in ground state, we know that oxidation state is 0, so Si in reactants and Mg in products, have 0.

Mg in reactants, acts with +2, so the oxidation number has decreased.

This is the reduction, so it has gained electrons.

Si in reactants acts with 0 so in products we find it with +4. The oxidation number increased it, so this is oxidation. The element has lost electrons.

Let's take a look to half reactions:

Mg²⁺ + 2e⁻ → Mg

Si → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻

In basic medium, we have to add water, as the same amount of oxygen we have, IN THE SAME SIDE. We have 3 oxygens in products, so we add 3 H₂O and in the opposite site we can add OH⁻, to balance the hydrogen. The half reaciton will be:

6OH⁻ + Si → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

If we want to ballance the main reaction we have to multiply (x2) the half reaction of oxidation. So the electrons can be ballanced.

2Mg²⁺ + 4e⁻ → 2Mg

Now, that they are ballanced we can sum the half reactions:

2Mg²⁺ + 4e⁻ → 2Mg

6OH⁻ + Si → SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

2Mg²⁺ + 4e⁻ + 6OH⁻ + Si → 2Mg + SiO₃²⁻ + 4e⁻ + 3 H₂O

Draw the curved arrow mechanism for the conversion of aniline into benzenediazonium ion, and draw the final product that forms a

kogti [31]

Below Mechanism shows the mechanism of formation of diazonium ion. Aniline is treated with Nitrosonium ion which is generated in situ by the reaction of Sodium nitrile and strong acid. The resulting <span>benzenediazonium ion on reaction with CuBr yields Bromobenzene and on treatment with CuCN gives Benzonitrile. Mechanism is as folow,</span>

Which radioactive emission has the smallest (least) mass? Question options:

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The answer is D. gamma rays

Explanation:

A radioactive atom can have three different types of emission:

alpha particles (α) = they have a mass of 4 amu and they have a very low penetrating power.

Beta particles (β) = they have 5x $10^{-4}$ amu and they have an intermediate penetrating power

Gamma rays (γ) = they are not particles basically just energy so its mass is ≈ 0 and its penetrating power is higher

For this reason Gamma emissions (γ) has the smallest mass value.
