So for your question, the Periodic Table tells us that sodium has an Atomic Number of 11, so there are 11 protons and 11 electrons. The Periodic Table tells us that sodium has an Atomic Mass of ≈23. So there are 23 - 11 = 12 neutrons.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the product that forms at each electrode in the aqueous electrolysis of the following salts:(

likoan [24]

Balanced Half reactions are:

At anode 2 $Cl^{-}$ ==> Cl₂+ $2e^{-}$ + H₂O ==> $ClO^{-}$ + 2 $H^{+}$ + $Cl^{-}$

At Cathode: 2 $H^{+}$ + $2e^{-}$ ==> H₂

Since the question states that you are using an aqueous solution of MnCl₂, so ions will have present are, H₂O, $H^{+}$ , $Mn^{2+}$ and $Cl^{-}$

Now at Anode reaction will occur as given:

2 $Cl^{-}$ ==> Cl₂+ $2e^{-}$ + H₂O ==> $ClO^{-}$ + 2 $H^{+}$ + $Cl^{-}$ (will occur)

At Cathode:

2 $H^{+}$ + $2e^{-}$ ==> H₂ (will occur)

At Cathode:

$Mn^{2+}$ + $2e^{-}$ ==> Mn (This reaction will not occur)

The deposition of solid Mn will not occur because in aqueous solution, $H^{+}$ will be reduced before $Mn^{2+}$ .

The reduction potentials for $H^{+}$ is zero whereas reduction potential for $Mn^{2+}$ is - 1.18V.

The reduction potential of a species is its tendency to gain electrons and get reduced. It is measured in millivolts or volts. Larger positive values of reduction potential are indicative of a greater tendency to get reduced.

Which equation represents a neutralization reaction?

bulgar [2K]

Answer: Hello, there! your Answer is Below

The answer is letter C

Explanation:

A. 4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) → 2Fe2O3(s), 2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O() and AgNO3(aq) + KCl(aq) → KNO3(aq) + AgCl(s) are not neutralization reaction.

Hope this Helps you!!!

Have a great day!!!
