Complete and balance the following redox equation using the set of smallest whole– number coefficients. Now sum the coefficients

Elena L [17]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation in a acidic solution is,

$BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)$

The sum of the coefficients is, 17

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in acidic solution are :

First we have to write into the two half-reactions.

Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.

Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.

If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the less number of oxygen are present.

If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydrogen ion $(H^+)$ at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.

Now balance the charge.

The given chemical reaction is,

$BrO_3^-(aq)+Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+Sb^{5+}(aq)$

The oxidation-reduction half reaction will be :

Oxidation : $Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}$

Reduction : $BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-$

First balance the main element in the reaction.

Oxidation : $Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}$

Reduction : $BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-$

Now balance oxygen atom on both side.

Oxidation : $Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}$

Reduction : $BrO_3^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O$

Now balance hydrogen atom on both side.

Oxidation : $Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}$

Reduction : $BrO_3^-+6H^+\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O$

Now balance the charge.

Oxidation : $Sb^{3+}\rightarrow Sb^{5+}+2e^-$

Reduction : $BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O$

The charges are not balanced. Now multiplying oxidation reaction by 3 and then adding both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation : $3Sb^{3+}\rightarrow 3Sb^{5+}+6e^-$

Reduction : $BrO_3^-+6H^++6e^-\rightarrow Br^-+3H_2O$

The balanced chemical equation in acidic medium will be,

$BrO_3^-(aq)+6H^+(aq)+3Sb^{3+}(aq)\rightarrow Br^-(aq)+3H_2O(l)+3Sb^{5+}(aq)$

The sum of the coefficients = 1 + 6 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 3

The sum of the coefficients = 17

To a 0.0001 m solution of mg(no3)2, naoh was added to a final concentration of 0.001m did a precipitate form?

Natalija [7]

I looked on a solubility chart to answer this question, and hydroxides are generally insoluble (with some exceptions of course). However, it says to consider $Mg(OH)_{2}$ as an insoluble substance, though it may be moderately soluble.

The answer that you are most likely looking for is: Yes, a precipitate does form - this is due to the double placement reaction:

$Mg(NO_{3})_{2}_{(aq)}$ + $2NaOH_{(aq)}$ → $Mg(OH)_{2} {(s)}$ + $2NaNO_{3}_{(aq)}$

Sample A: 300 mL of 1M sodium chloride

yarga [219]

Answer:

sample B contains the larger density

Explanation:

Given;

volume of sample A, V = 300 mL = 0.3 L

Molarity of sample A, C = 1 M

volume of sample B, V = 145 mL = 0.145 L

Molarity of sample B, C = 1.5 M

molecular mass of sodium chloride, Nacl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Molarity is given as;

$C = \frac{moles \ of \ solute, \ mol}{liters \ of \ solvent} \\\\Moles \ of \ solute \ for \ sample \ A = 1 \times 0.3 = 0.3 \ mol\\\\Moles \ of \ solute \ for \ sample \ B = 1.5 \times 0.145 = 0.2175 \ mol$

The reacting mass for sample A = 0.3mol x 58.5 g/mol = 17.55 g

The reacting mass for sample B = 0.2175 mol x 58.5 g/mol = 12.72 g

The density of sample A $= \frac{mass}{volume} = \frac{17.55}{0.3} = 58.5 \ g/L$

The density of sample B $= \frac{mass}{volume} = \frac{12.72}{0.145} = 87.72 \ g/L$

Therefore, sample B contains the larger density
