Balancing the reaction by oxidation number method k2cr2o7+sncl2+hcl

Mumz [18]

Answer:

$K_2Cr_2O_7 (aq) + 14 HCl (aq) + 3 SnCl_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2 CrCl_3 (aq) + 7 H_2O (l) + 3 SnCl_4 (aq) + 2 KCl (aq)$

Explanation:

The products of this reaction are given by:

$K_2Cr_2O_7 (aq) + SnCl_2 (aq) + HCl (aq)\rightarrow KCl (aq) + SnCl_4 (aq) + CrCl_3 (aq) + H_2O (l)$

Firstly, dichromate anion becomes chromium(III) cation, let's write this change:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow Cr^{3+} (aq)$

The following steps should be taken:

balance the main element, chromium: multiply the right side by 2 to get 2 chromium species on both side:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow 2 Cr^{3+} (aq)$

balance oxygen atoms by adding 7 water molecules on the right:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow 2 Cr^{3+} (aq) + 7 H_2O (l)$

balance the hydrogen atoms by adding 14 protons on the left:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq) + 14 H^+ (aq)\rightarrow 2 Cr^{3+} (aq) + 7 H_2O (l)$

balance the charge (the total net charge on the left is 12+, on the right we have 6+, so 6 electrons are needed on the left):

$Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq) + 14 H^+ (aq) + 6e^-\rightarrow 2 Cr^{3+} (aq) + 7 H_2O (l)$

Similarly, tin(II) cation becomes tin(IV) cation:

$Sn^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+} (aq) + 2e^-$

Now that we have the two half-equations, multiply the second one by 3, so that it also has 6 electrons that will be cancelled out upon addition of the two half-equations:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq) + 14 H^+ (aq) + 6e^-\rightarrow 2 Cr^{3+} (aq) + 7 H_2O (l)$

$3 Sn^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow 3 Sn^{4+} (aq) + 6e^-$

Add them together:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-} (aq) + 14 H^+ (aq) + 3 Sn^{2+} (aq)\rightarrow 2 Cr^{3+} (aq) + 7 H_2O (l) + 3 Sn^{4+} (aq)$

Adding the ions spectators:

$K_2Cr_2O_7 (aq) + 14 HCl (aq) + 3 SnCl_2 (aq)\rightarrow 2 CrCl_3 (aq) + 7 H_2O (l) + 3 SnCl_4 (aq) + 2 KCl (aq)$

How much heat, in calories, is given off when 1.25 grams of silver is cooled from 100.0 degrees Celsius to 80 degrees Celsius? (

lapo4ka [179]

The heat required to raise the temperature of a certain mass of sample to a specific temperature change, we use the formula mCpΔT where m is mass, Cp is the specific heat of the substance and ΔT is the temperature change. In this case, we substitute and form 1.25 g x 0.057 cal/g C *20 C equal to 1.425 calories.

What is the total number of valence electrons in the dot structure of CBr4? Explain how you determined this answer. What is the

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:- There are 32 valence electrons and it's tetrahedral in shape.

Explanations:- Atomic number of carbon is 6 and it's electron configuration is $1s^22s^22p^2$ . It has 4 electrons in the outer most shell means it has 4 valence electrons.

Atomic number of Br is 35 and it's electron configuration is $1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^1^04p^5$ . It has 7 electrons in the outer most shell(2 in 4s and 5 in 4p) .

There is one C and four Br in the given compound. So, total number of valence electrons = 4+4(7) = 4+28 = 32

Four Br atoms are bonded to the central carbon atom and also there isn't any lone pair present on carbon. It makes it tetrahedral.
