<u>Answer:</u> Lithium is getting oxidized and is a reducing agent. Hydrogen is getting reduced and is oxidizing agent.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. Here, oxidation state of the atom increases.

X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which an atom gains electrons. Here, the oxidation state of the atom decreases.

X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X

Oxidizing agents are defined as the agents which oxidize other substance and itself gets reduced. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

Reducing agents are defined as the agents which reduces the other substance and itself gets oxidized. These agents undergoes reduction reactions.

For the given chemical reaction:

2Li(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow 2LiOH(aq.)+H_2(g)

The half reactions for the above reaction are:

Oxidation half reaction: 2Li(s)\rightarrow 2Li^{+}(aq.)+2e^-

Reduction half reaction: 2H^(aq.)+2e^-\rightarrow H_2(g)

From the above reactions, lithium is loosing its electrons. Thus, it is getting oxidized and is considered as a reducing agent.

Hydrogen is gaining electrons and thus is getting reduced and is considered as an oxidizing agent.

Bismuth-210 has a half life of 5.0 days if you had a sample of 60.00g of Bismuth-210 how much would be left after 15 days? (Show
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

7.5 gm left

Explanation:

Bismuth-210 has a half life of 5 days

15 days is 15/5 = 3 half lives

since half the amount is left in 5 days or 1 half life

(1/2) x (1/2) x (1/2) the staring amount would be left in

3 half lives. so 1/8 is left

(1/8) x 60.0 = 7.5 gm left

Explain the relationship between forward and reverse
serious [3.7K]

If a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium shifts to counteract the change to reestablish equilibrium. If a chemical reaction is at equilibrium and experiences a change in pressure, temperature, or concentration of products or reactants, the equilibrium shifts in the opposite direction to offset the change. This page covers changes to the position of equilibrium due to such changes and discusses briefly why catalysts have no effect on the equilibrium position.

For example, if the system is changed in a way that increases the concentration of one of the reacting species, it must favor the reaction in which that species is consumed. In other words, if there is an increase in products, the reaction quotient, Qc, is increased, making it greater than the equilibrium constant, Kc.
