What is an ion? What are the two ways in which an ion can be made?

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in association with one of the ...

11C. Potassium hydrogen phthalate is a solid, monoprotic acid frequently used in the laboratory to standardize strong base solut

Llana [10]

For the reactants,

The oxidation number of hydrogen = +1
The oxidation number of oxygen = -2
The oxidation number of arsenic = +5
The oxidation number of carbon = +3

For the products,

The oxidation number of hydrogen = +1
The oxidation number of oxygen = -2
The oxidation number of arsenic = +3
The oxidation number of carbon = +4

Here, arsenic (+5 to +3) and carbon (+3 to +4) are the only oxidation numbers changing.

Note that an increase in oxidation number means electrons are lost. Thus oxidation is occurring, and a decrease in oxidation number means electrons are being gained, and thus reduction is occurring.

Also, the compound that contains the element being oxidized is the reducing agent, and the compound that contains the element being reduced is the oxidizing agent.

So, the answers are:

name of the element oxidized: Carbon

name of the element reduced: Arsenic

formula of the oxidizing agent: $\text{H}_{3}\text{AsO}_{4}$

formula of the reducing agent: $\text{H}_{2}\text{C}_{2}\text{O}_{4}$

How can you tell one elements from another?

stepladder [879]

The protons in the atom determine what the atom is. It also determines the atomic number<span>. For example, hydrogen has one proton, so it the atomic number is one. Lithium has an atomic number of three because it has three protons.</span>

How many liters of water vapor can be produced if 13.3 liters of methane gas (CH4) are combusted, if all measurements are taken

Pie

To get the number of liters of water vapor produced from the combustion of methane gas, we just need the stoichiometric ratio of water to methane which is 2:1. So the number of liters of water vapor from 13.3 liters of methane is 26.6 liters.
