The oxidizing agent is the one that is reduced in the reaction. In this reaction, the charge of Cu falls from +2 to zero charge (neutral atom in the right side). Hence, CuO is the oxidizing agent. The reducing agent, the one being oxidized is carbon from zero charge to +4. The answer is CuO.

A sample of gas is held at 1000C at a volume of 20 L. If the volume is increased to 40 L, what is the new temperature of the gas
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The new temperature will be 2546 K or 2273 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial temperature = 1000 °C =1273 K

The volume = 20L

The volume increases to 40 L

Step 2: Calculate the new temperature

V1/T1 = V2/T2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 20L

⇒with T1 = the initial temperature = 1273 K

⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 40L

⇒with T2 = the new temperature = TO BE DETERMINED

20L/ 1273 K = 40L / T2

T2 = 40L / (20L/1273K)

T2 = 2546 K

The new temperature will be 2546 K

This is 2546-273 = 2273 °C

Since the volume is doubled, the temperature is doubled as well

Which of the following statements accurately describes how a catalyst acts in a chemical reaction?
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

d) II and IV only.

Explanation:

A catalyst increases the kinetic energy of reactant molecules which increases the magnitude of collision. These then decreases the activation energy . A catalyst is not consumed by reaction because it is neither reactant nor a product, hence has no effect on equilibrium constant.
