Answer : The oxidizing element is N and reducing element is O. 

KNO_{3} is act as an oxidizing agent as well as reducing agent.

Explanation :

An Oxidizing agent is the agent which has ability to oxidize other or a higher in oxidation number.

Reducing agent is the agent which has ability to reduce other or lower in oxidation number.

The given reaction is :

KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}

KNO_{3}  act as an oxidizing agent.

The oxidation number of N in KNO_{3} is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+3(-2) = 0

x = +5

And the oxidation number of N in KNO_{2}  is calculated as:

(+1)+(x)+2(-2) = 0

x = +3

From the oxidation number method, we conclude that the oxidation number  reduced this means KNO_{3} itself get reduced to KNO_{2} and it can act as an oxidizing agent.

KNO_{3}  act as a reducing agent.

KNO_{3} \rightarrow KNO_{2} +O_{2}

The oxidation number of O in KNO_{3} is calculated as:

(+1)+(+5)+3(x) = 0

x = -2

The oxidation number of O in O_{2} is Zero (o).

Now, we conclude that the oxidation number increases this means KNO_{3} itself get oxidized to O_{2} and it can act as reducing agent.

Consider the substances below.
ratelena [41]

Answer:

They have the same number of atoms. = YES

They have different masses. = YES

Explanation:

1 mol of beryllium

• 1 mol of salt

beryllium  = Be = Atomic mass: 9.012182

salt  = NaCl = Molar mass: 58.44 g/mol

1 mol of water

• 1 mol of hydrogen

water  = H2O = Molar mass: 18.01528 g/mol

hydrogen = H = 1g/mole

Which statement is true about these substances?

They have exactly the same mass. = NO

They have different numbers of particles = NO

They have the same number of atoms. = YES

They have different masses. = YES

Avogadro constant means the number of units in one mole of any substance (defined as its molecular weight in grams) is equal to 6.02214076 × 10^{23}.

Suppose that coal of density 1.5 g/cm^3 is pure carbon. (It is, in fact, much more complicated, but this is a reasonable first a
NISA [10]

Answer:

q = -6464.9 kJ

Explanation:

We are given that the heat of combustion is  ∆H° = −394 kJ per mol of carbon.Therefore what we need to do is calculate how many moles of C are in the lump of coal by finding its mass since the density is given.

vol = 5.6 cm x 5.1 cm x 4.6 cm = 131.38 cm³

m = d x v = 1.5 g/cm³ x 131.38 cm³ = 197.06 g

mol C = m/MW = 197.06 g/ 12.01g/mol = 16.41 mol

q =  −394 kJ /mol C x 16.41 mol C = -6464.9 kJ

Consider the chemical equation in equilibrium. A(g) 2B(g) Double headed arrow. C(g) D(g) heat What will happen to the equilibriu
Mazyrski [523]

If the temperature is increased then reaction will shift to the left because heat is absorbed.

<h3>What is equilibrium state?</h3>

Equilibrium of any reaction is that state in which concentration of reactant and concentration of product will be constant.

Given chemical reaction is:

A(g) + 2B(g) ⇄ C(g) + D(g)

From the equilibrium state reaction will move only that side which will contribute to maintain the stable state. In the forward reaction heat is released as mention in the question. So, when the temperature of reaction is increased then it shifts towards the left side by absorbing the heat and maintain the stability.

Hence, option (2) is correct, i.e. It will shift to the left because heat is absorbed.
