Answer:
Alkali metal hydroxides can be used to test the identity of metals in certain salts. The colour of the precipitate will help identify the metal : Calcium hydroxide is soluble; no precipitate is formed.
Answer:
See explaination
Explanation:
1)
we know that
half cell with higher reduction potential is cathode
so
cathode :
N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20
anode :
Cr(s) ---> Cr+3 + 3e-
so
overall reaction is
3 N20 + 6H+ + 2 Cr ---> 3N2 + 3H20 + 2Cr+3
now
Eo cell = Eo cathode - Eo anode
so
EO cell = 1.77 + 0.74
Eo cell = 2.51 V
now
in this case
oxidizing agents are N20 and Cr+3
reducing agents are Cr and N2
higher the reduction potential , stronger the oxidizing agent
lower the reduction potential , stronger the reducing agent
so
oxidzing agents
N20 > Cr+3
reducing agents
Cr > N2
2)
cathode :
Au+ + e- --> Au
anode :
Cr ---> Cr+3 + 3e-
overall reaction
3Au+ + Cr ---> 3Au + Cr+3
Eo cell = 1.69 + 0.74
Eo cell = 2.43
now
oxidizing agents :
Au+ > Cr+3
reducing agents :
Cr > Au
3)
cathode :
N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20
andoe :
Au ---> Au+ + e-
overall
2 Au + N20 + 2H+ --> 2 Au+ + N2 + H20
Eo cell = 1.77 - 1.69
Eo cell = 0.08
oxidizing agents
N20 > Au+
reducing agents
Au > N2
Answer:
The empirical formula is PCl3
Explanation:
Mass of P is 30.97 g, thus 1.523 g of P equivalent to 0.05 moles of P
Mass of Cl is 35.45 g, thus 5.228 g of Cl equivalent to 0.15 moles of Cl
Therefore moles of P : moles of Cl = 0.05:0.15 = 1:3
Therefore the empirical formula, PCl3
