Answer:
5Fe⁺² + MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ => 5Fe⁺³ + Mn⁺² + 4H₂O
Explanation:
Fe⁺² + MnO₄⁻ + H⁺ => Mn⁺² + Fe⁺³ + H₂O
5(Fe⁺² => Fe⁺³ + 1e⁻) => 5Fe⁺² => 5Fe⁺³ + 5e⁻
<u>MnO₄⁻ + 5e⁻ => Mn⁺² => MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ + 5e⁻ => Mn⁺² + 4H₂O</u>
=> 5Fe⁺² + MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ => 5Fe⁺³ + Mn⁺² + 4H₂O
Answer:
Option (2)
Explanation:
Since the amount of each sample is the same, we are looking for the metal with the greatest density, which is copper.
The balanced reaction is as follows;
BiCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ --> 2NaCl + BiSO₄
this is a double displacement reaction
the oxidation number of Bi is +2 in both BiCl₂ and BiSO₄
oxidation number of Cl is -1 in both BiCl₂ and NaCl
oxidation number of Na is +1 in both Na₂SO₄ and NaCl
oxidation numbers of elements in SO₄²⁻ remains the same in both compounds.Therefore the oxidation state in any of the elements in the reaction doesn't change. Neither of the elements show an increase or decrease in the oxidation numbers .
Answer for this question is no element decreases its oxidation number.
