1/4 mol = 0.25 mol

6 months = 0.5 year

rate = 0,25 mol / 0.5 year = 0.5 mol/year or approx 0.042 mol/month

Atoms of metallic elements tend to...
lara31 [8.8K]

The answer is: lose electrons and form positive ions.

Most metals have strong metallic bond, because of strong electrostatic attractive force between valence electrons (metals usually have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively charged metal ions.

The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).

For example, magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.  

Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

How can naphthalene be separated from a mixture of kbr and sand?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Put it in a beaker. Use a smaller beaker filled half way with ice and water and place in the larger one. It should be about an inch or two above the mixture. Heat over a Bunsen burner and the naphthalene will deposit on the bottom of smaller beaker.

And in this way, nephthalene be separated from the mixture of KBR and sand.

g 2BrO3- + 5SnO22-+ H2O5SnO32- + Br2+ 2OH- In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from to . How many electron
Archy [21]

Answer:

In the above reaction, the oxidation state of tin changes from 2+ to 4+.

10 moles of electrons are transferred in the reaction

Explanation:

Redox reaction is:

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻

SnO₂²⁻ → SnO₃²⁻

Tin changes the oxidation state from +2 to +4. It has increased it so this is the oxidation from the redox (it released 2 e⁻). We are in basic medium, so we add water in the side of the reaction where we have the highest amount of oxygen. We have 2 O on left side and 3 O on right side so we add 1 water on the right and we complete with OH⁻ in the opposite side to balance the H.  

SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O <u>Oxidation</u>

BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂

First of all, we have unbalance the bromine, so we add 2 on the BrO₃⁻. We have 6 O in left side and there are no O on the right, so we add 6 H₂O on the left. To balance the H, we must complete with 12OH⁻. Bromate reduces to bromine at ground state, so it gained 5e⁻. We have 2 atoms of Br, so finally it gaines 10 e⁻.

6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂ + 12OH⁻ <u>Reduction</u>

In order to balance the main reaction and balance the electrons we multiply  (x5) the oxidation and (x1) the reduciton

(SnO₂²⁻ + 2OH⁻ → SnO₃²⁻ + 2e⁻ + H₂O) . 5

(6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ →  Br₂ + 12OH⁻) . 1

5SnO₂²⁻ + 10OH⁻ + 6H₂O + 10 e⁻ + 2BrO₃⁻ → Br₂ + 12OH⁻ + 5SnO₃²⁻ + 10e⁻ + 5H₂O

We can cancel the e⁻ and we substract:

12OH⁻ - 10OH⁻ = 2OH⁻ (on the right side)

6H₂O - 5H₂O = H₂O (on the left side)

2BrO₃⁻ + 5SnO₂²⁻ + H2O ⇄ 5SnO₃²⁻ + Br₂ + 2OH⁻
