Answer:

Every oxidation must be accompanied by a reduction.

Explanation:

Oxidation and reduction are complementary processes. There can be no oxidation without reduction and vice versa. It is actually a given an take affair. A specie looses electrons which must be gained by another specie to complete the process. This explains why the selected option is the correct one.

A ________ reaction occurs when one compound reacts and is broken down into different elements or simpler compounds?
faust18 [17]

Answer: decomposition

Explanation:

1 . Combustion is a type of chemical reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to form carbon dioxide ans water along with liberation of large amount of energy.

2. Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which a single reactant gives two or more than two products.

CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2

3. Single replacement is a type of chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces the less reactive element from its slat solution.

4. Synthesis is a type of chemical reaction in which two or more than two reactants combine together to give a single product.

Dr. I. M. A. Brightguy adds 0.1727 g of an unknown gas to a 125-mL flask. If Dr. B finds the pressure to be 736 torr at 20.0°C,
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The gas that Dr. Brightguy added was O₂

Explanation:

Ideal Gases Law to solve this:

P . V = n . R . T

Firstly, let's convert 736 Torr in atm

736 Torr is atmospheric pressure = 1 atm

20°C = 273 + 20 = 293 T°K

125 mL = 0.125L

0.125 L . 1 atm = n . 0.082 L.atm / mol.K . 293K

(0.125L .1atm) / (0.082 mol.K /L.atm . 293K) = n

5.20x10⁻³ mol = n

mass / mol = molar mass

0.1727 g / 5.20x10⁻³ mol = 33.2 g/m

This molar mass corresponds nearly to O₂

the element carbon has two common isotopes: C-12 (12 U) AND C-13 (13.003355 U). IF THE AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS OF CARBON IS 12.0107
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The percent isotopic abundance of C- 12 is 98.93 %

The percent isotopic abundance of C- 13 is 1.07 %

Explanation:

we know there are two naturally occurring isotopes of carbon, C-12 (12u)  and C-13 (13.003355)

First of all we will set the fraction for both isotopes

X for the isotopes having mass 13.003355

1-x for isotopes having mass 12

The average atomic mass of carbon is 12.0107

we will use the following equation,

13.003355x + 12 (1-x) = 12.0107

13.003355x + 12 - 12x = 12.0107

13.003355x- 12x = 12.0107 -12

1.003355x = 0.0107

x= 0.0107/1.003355

x= 0.0107

0.0107 × 100 = 1.07 %

1.07 % is abundance of C-13 because we solve the fraction x.

now we will calculate the abundance of C-12.

(1-x)

1-0.0107 =0.9893

0.9893 × 100= 98.93 %

98.93 % for C-12.

Water is produced from the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen gas, according to the equation below. What is the excess reactant in
liq [111]

Explanation:

Mole ratio of Oxygen to Hydrogen gas = 1 : 2.

If we use 3.0 moles of oxygen gas, we would need 3.0 * 2 = 6.0 mol of hydrogen gas.

However we only have 4.2 mol of hydrogen. Therefore hydrogen is limiting and oxygen is in excess. (B)
