<span>Oxidation is the loss of electrons and corresponds to an increase in oxidation state. The reduction is the gain of electrons and corresponds to a decrease in oxidation state. Balancing redox reactions can be more complicated than balancing other types of reactions because both the mass and charge must be balanced. Redox reactions occurring in aqueous solutions can be balanced by using a special procedure called the half-reaction method of balancing. In this procedure, the overall equation is broken down into two half-reactions: one for oxidation and the other for reduction. The half-reactions are balanced individually and then added together so that the number of electrons generated in the oxidation half-reaction is the same as the number of electrons consumed in the reduction half-reaction.</span>

A solution is prepared by dissolving 27.7 g of cacl2 in 375 g of water. the density of the resulting solution is 1.05 g/ml. the
bagirrra123 [75]
The answer is 6.88.
Solution:
We can calculate for the percent composition of CaCl2 by mass by dividing the mass of the CaCl2 solute by the mass of the solution and then multiply by 100. The total mass of the resulting solution is the sum of the mass of CaCl2 solute and the mass of water solvent. Therefore, the percent composition of CaCl2 by mass is 
     % by mass = (mass of the solute / mass of the solution)*100 
                        = mass of solute / (mass of the solute + mass of the solvent)*100
                        = (27.7 g CaCl2 / 27.7g + 375g) * 100 
                        = 6.88

. the density (d) of a substance is an intensive property that is defined as the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (v). densit
ale4655 [162]

Density is intensive because it is the ratio of two extensive properties that is mass to volume.

<h3>What is Density ?</h3>

Density is defined as mass per unit volume. S.I unit if density is kg/m³.

It is expressed as

Density = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}  or d = \frac{m}{V}

<h3>What is Intensive Property ? </h3>

Intensive property is the property which does not depend on the size of the system. Intensive property can be easily identified. Intensive property is the independent property. The size does not change in this.

Example of intensive property are Density, Freezing point, melting point, colour, Lustre, etc.  

<h3>What is Extensive property ?</h3>

Extensive property is the property which depend on the substance. Extensive property cannot be easily identified.

Example of extensive property length, weight, volume, mass etc.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that Density is intensive because it is the ratio of two extensive properties that is mass to volume.

Question: The density (d) of a substance is an intensive property that is defined as the ratio of its mass (m) to its volume (v)

density = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}  or d = \frac{m}{V}

Considering that mass and volume are both extensive properties, explain why their ratio, density is intensive.

When a reaction has reached equilibrium... A. Q = K B. The rate of the forward reaction and the rate of the reverse reaction are
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Equilibrium is a state when rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction. The concentration of reactants and products becomes constant at this state.

The ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficients is termed as Equilibrium constant. It is denoted by K_{eq}.

aA + bB \rightleftharpoons cC

K_{eq}=\frac{[C]^c}{[A]^a[B]^b}
