Answer:
The maximum kinetic energy of electron is = 2.93 × Joule
Explanation:
We know that total energy
------------ (1)
Here h = plank's constant = 6.62 × J s
c = speed of light = 3 ×
= 261 nm = 261 ×
m
Put all these values in equation (1) we get
E = 7.6 × J
We know that
Total energy = Energy to remove an electron + K.E of electron
Energy to remove an electron =
Energy to remove an electron = 4.67 × J
K.E of electron = Total energy - Energy to remove an electron
K.E of electron = 7.6 × - 4.67 ×
K.E of electron = 2.93 × Joule
Therefore the maximum kinetic energy of electron is = 2.93 × Joule
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:
formula of the reducing agent:
