How many moles of electrons are required to reduce one mole of bromine gas (br2) to 2 moles of bromide ions (br-)?

1 answer:

5 0

Each mole of bromine atoms must accept one mole of electrons to form one mole of bromide ions (Br-). Bromine gas is diatomic, which means that each mole of bromine gas contains two moles of bromine atoms. Therefore, in order to reduce one mole of bromine gas to form bromide ions, two moles of electrons must be added.
The energy required or released in this process is known as the electron affinity.

Conjugate base of Propanoic acid ( $CH_{3}CH_{2}COOH$ is propanoate where -COOH group gets converted to -CO $O^{1-}$ . The structure of conjugate base of Propanoic acid is shown in the diagram.

The $p^{H}$ above which 90% of the compound will be in this conjugate base form can be determined using Henderson's equation as propanoic acid is weak acid and it can form buffer solution on reaction with strong base.
