Answer:
(i) Oxidizing Agent: NO2 / Reducing Agent NH3-
(ii) Oxidizing Agent AgNO3 / Reducing Agent Zn
Explanation:
(i) 8NH3( g) + 6NO2( g) => 7N2( g) + 12H2O( l)
In this reaction, both two reactants contain nitrogen with a different oxidation number and produce only one product which contains nitrogen with a unique oxidation state. So, nitrogen is oxidized and reduced in the same reaction.
Nitrogen Undergoes a change in oxidation state from 4+ in NO2 to 0 in N2. It is reduced because it gains electrons (decrease its oxidation state). NO2 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor).
Nitrogen Changes from an oxidation state of 3- in NH3 to 0 in N2. It is oxidized because it loses electrons (increase its oxidation state). NH3 is the reducing agent (electron donor)
(ii) Zn(s) +AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)
Ag changes oxidation state from 1+ to 0 in Ag(s).
Ag is reduced because it gains electrons and for this reason and AgNO3 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor)
Zn Changes from an oxidation state of 0 in Zn(s) to 2+ in Zn(NO3)2. It is oxidized and for this reason Zn is the reducing agent (electron donor).
Balanced equation:
Zn(s) +2AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + 2Ag(s)
Density = mass / volume so density = 62.5429 / 3.24 = 19.3 g/ml. This is the density of gold.
Answer:
k₂ = 4.06 x 10⁻² s⁻¹.
Explanation:
- From Arrhenius law: <em>K = Ae(-Ea/RT)</em>
where, K is the rate constant of the reaction.
A is the Arrhenius factor.
Ea is the activation energy.
R is the general gas constant.
T is the temperature.
- At different temperatures:
<em>ln(k₂/k₁) = Ea/R [(T₂-T₁)/(T₁T₂)]</em>
k₁ = 5.8 × 10⁻³ s⁻¹, k₂ = ??? , Ea = 33600 J/mol, R = 8.314 J/mol.K, T₁ = 298.0 K, T₂ = 348.0 K.
- ln(k₂/5.8 × 10⁻³ s⁻¹) = (33600 J/mol / 8.314 J/mol.K) [(348.0 K - 298.0 K) / (298.0 K x 348.0 K)] = (4041.37) (4.82 x 10⁻⁴) = 1.9479.
- Taking exponential of both sides:
(k₂/5.8 × 10⁻³ s⁻¹) = 7.014.
∴ k₂ = 4.06 x 10⁻² s⁻¹.
To measure a vector is to characterize both its direction (in one form or another) and a value (usually, a number). For example, velocity of a car moving on the road is a vector and, to measure it, we have to specify its direction (e.g. North or at angle 20 degrees from the North) and value (e.g. 40 m/sec).
Answer:
a) H2S:SO2 = 2:2 and O2:H2O = 3:2
Explanation:
⇒ H2S:SO2 = 2 mol H2S / 2 mol SO2 ≡ 2 : 2
⇒ O2:H2O = 3 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O ≡ 3 : 2
