Answer:

Oxalate oxidation in the presence of different oxidized luminophores leads to the emission of light and has been studied extensively in electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL). The proposed mechanism involves the initial formation of the oxalate radical anion, C2O4•–. The ensuing decomposition of C2O4•– produces a very strong reductant, CO2•–, which reacts with the oxidized luminophores to generate excited states that emit light. Although the mechanism has been proposed for decades, the experimental demonstration is still lacking, because of the complexity of the system and the short lifetimes of both radical anions. To address these issues, we studied oxalate oxidation at platinum ultramicroelectrodes (UMEs) in anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution by nanoscale scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) with the tip generation/substrate collection (TG/SC) mode. A Pt nanoelectrode was utilized as the SECM generator for oxalate oxidation, while another Pt UME served as the SECM collector and was used to capture the generated intermediates. We studied the influence of the gap distance, d, on the substrate current (is). The results indicate that, when 73 nm < d < 500 nm, the species captured by the substrate were primarily CO2•–, while C2O4•– was the predominant intermediate measured when d was below 73 nm. A half-life of 1.3 μs for C2O4•– was obtained, which indicates a stepwise mechanism for oxalate oxidation. The relevance of these observations to the use of oxalate as the coreactant in ECL systems is also discussed.

Answer:

CO2 consists of one carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms, where as C2O4 consists of 2 carbon atoms and 4 oxygen atoms. CO2 has a ration of one carbon atom to every 2 oxygen atoms and C2O4 has a ratio of 1:2 aswell

Five Laboratory Safety Rules:

1). Do not eat in the laboratory.

2). Do not touch any chemical or reagent unless you are told to do so.

3). Neither play in lab, nor sit on the table.

4). Don't remove labels on any reagent.

5). Don't taste anything in the laboratory, no matter how familiar it appears.

In the so called rain shadow effect we have interaction between all of the four major Earth spheres. When we have a coastal region where there's a high mountain range, the part of the mountain that is facing the sea will differ a lot from the part of the mountain that is on the other side. The water from the sea evaporates. The water vapor makes the air wet. The warm and wet air masses from the sea will come to the coastline, once they reach the mountain they will start to accumulate as they can not pass through it. As they accumulate rainfall appears. The rainfall contributes to a lush vegetation on this side of the mountain (windward side). The rain shadow effect appears on the leeward side of the mountain, and it mostly gets dry, strong, downward winds. These conditions result in drier climate, much less vegetation, and much increased erosion. Thus we can easily see that we have in this case interaction between the hydrosphere (the sea and the rainfall), the geosphere (the ground, soil, rocks), biosphere (the vegetation), and atmosphere (the winds, the clouds).

Predict the shape of the molecule.

balandron [24]

Answer:

B.) trigonal bipyramidal

Explanation:

A.) is incorrect. In octahedral molecules, the central atom is bonded to six other atoms.

B.) is correct. In trigonal bipyramidal structures, the central atom is bonded to five other atoms.

C.) is incorrect. In tetrahedral molecules, the central atom is bonded to four other atoms.

D.) is incorrect. There is not such thing as a pyramidal molecular shape. This term is most likely referring to the shape, trigonal pyramidal. However, this is still incorrect. In trigonal pyramidal molecules, the central atom is bonded to three other atoms and a lone pair of electrons.
