Missing question:<span> How many grams of oxygen are needed for complete combustion of the toluene?
Chemical reaction: </span>C₇H₈ + 9O₂ → 7CO₂ + 4H₂<span>O.
V(</span>C₇H₈) = 8,30 ml.
d(C₇H₈) = 0,867 g/ml.
n(C₇H₈) = V(C₇H₈) · d(C₇H₈).
m(C₇H₈) = 8,3 ml · 0,867 g/ml.
m(C₇H₈) = 7,19 g.
n(C₇H₈) = m(C₇H₈) ÷ M(C₇H₈).
n(C₇H₈) = 7,19 g ÷ 92,14 g/mol = 0,078 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(C₇H₈) : n(O₂) = 1 : 9.
n(O₂) = 9 · 0,078 mol = 0,702 mol.
m(O₂) = 0,702 mol · 32 g/mol = 22,5 g.

What effect does thermal energy have on the rate of chemical reactions?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The temperature, however, greatly affects the rate of a chemical reaction. As you heat a substance, its molecules move faster and are more likely to react. Some reactants even require some heat to initiate a reaction. Reaction Rates and Temperature

Which one of the following items does NOT characterize a reducing agent? a. A reducing agent loses electrons. b. A reducing agen
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: D

Explanation:

A reducing agent is a species that reduces other compounds, and is thereby oxidized. The whole compound becomes the reducing agent. In other words, of a compound is oxidized, then they are the reducing agent. On the other hand, if the compound is reduced, it is an ozidizing agent.

Since we have established that a reducing agent is the compound being oxidized, we know that A is not our answer. An oxidized compound is losing electrons. Choice A states exactly this.

For B, this is true as we have established this already.

C is also correct. Since a reducing agent loses electrons, it becomes more positive. This makes the oxidation number increase.

D would be our correct answer. It is actually a good oxidizing agent is a metal in a high oxidation state, such as Mn⁷⁺.

Which equation represents the reaction of a weak acid with water?
shusha [124]
Acid is anything which will give H+ to other species.

Have a look at the equations given.

In A) HCl changes to Cl- by giving its H+ to H2O. So HCl is an acid.

In B) HCO3- changes to H2CO3^2- by accepting H+. It did Not give its H+ rather it takes from other species. So it is not an acid at all.

In C) H2O is just breaking to H+ and OH-. It is not giving H+ to other species. So it is also not an acid in this reaction.

In D) HCOOH is giving its H+ to H2O. So it is also an acid.

So out of all reactions with water. The only two species are acting as acid with water namely HCl and HCOOH.

Out of these two HCl is very strong acid but HCOOH is a weak acid.

So the answer is D

What is reduction potential?​
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

A reduction potential measures the tendency of a molecule to be reduced by taking up new electrons. ... Standard reduction potentials can be useful in determining the directionality of a reaction. The reduction potential of a given species can be considered to be the negative of the oxidation potential.
