Answer:

(i)  Oxidizing Agent: NO2 / Reducing Agent NH3-

(ii) Oxidizing Agent AgNO3 / Reducing Agent Zn

Explanation:

(i) 8NH3( g) + 6NO2( g) => 7N2( g) + 12H2O( l)

In this reaction, both two reactants contain nitrogen with a different oxidation number and produce only one product which contains nitrogen with a unique oxidation state. So, nitrogen is oxidized and reduced in the same reaction.

Nitrogen Undergoes a change in oxidation state from 4+ in NO2 to 0 in N2. It is reduced because it gains electrons (decrease its oxidation state). NO2 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor).

Nitrogen Changes from an oxidation state of 3- in NH3 to 0 in N2. It is oxidized because it loses electrons (increase its oxidation state). NH3 is the reducing agent (electron donor)

(ii) Zn(s) +AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)

Ag changes oxidation state from 1+ to 0 in Ag(s).

Ag is reduced because it gains electrons and for this reason and AgNO3 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor)

Zn Changes from an oxidation state of 0 in Zn(s) to 2+ in Zn(NO3)2. It is oxidized and for this reason Zn is the reducing agent (electron donor).

Balanced equation:

Zn(s) +2AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + 2Ag(s)

There are several aromatic compounds with the formula C8H9Cl. Draw those that have a trisubstituted ring where the methyl groups
Kryger [21]

Answer:

3-Chloro-1,2-dimethylbenzene

4-Chloro-1,2-dimethylbenzene

Explanation:

Such types of compounds in which conjugated planer ring system and delocalized pi electrons are present are called aromatic compounds such as Toluene, Benzene and some other. Generally, these compounds follow Huckle's rule. The trisubstituted ring means a compound in which three hydrogen atoms are replaced by three other groups. In the given compound  two hydrogen atoms are replaced by two methyl groups and one hydrogen atom is replaced by one Chlorine atom. From the given compound  3-Chloro-1,2-dimethylbenzene, and   4-Chloro-1,2-dimethylbenzene  can be drawn.

Write the condensed ground-state electron configurations of these transition metal ions, and state which are paramagnetic:
Zinaida [17]

The electron configuration of  V³⁺ is [Ar]3d^2. The ion is paramagnetic because it has two unpaired electrons

<h3>What is paramagnetic?</h3>
  • A weak magnetic field supplied externally can weakly attract some materials, which then create internal magnetic fields that are directed in the same direction as the applied magnetic field. This phenomenon is known as paramagnetic.
  • Diamagnetic materials, in contrast, are attracted to magnetic fields and produce induced magnetic fields that are directed in the opposite direction from the applied magnetic field.
  • The majority of chemical elements and some compounds are considered to be paramagnetic materials.
  • Paramagnetic materials have a relative magnetic permeability that is somewhat more than 1, which makes them attracted to magnetic fields.
  • The applied field induces a linearly decreasing magnetic moment that is relatively weak.
  • Modern experiments on paramagnetic materials are frequently done with a sensitive analytical balance since it typically requires a sensitive analytical balance to identify the effect.

Compare the root mean square speeds of O2 and UF6 at 65 degree Celsius
gayaneshka [121]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

The root mean square speeds of O₂ and UF₆ is 513m/s and 155 m/s respectively.

<h3>Solution and Explanation:</h3>
  • To find how fast molecules or particles of gases move at a particular temperature, the root  mean square speed is calculated.
  • Root mean square speed of a gas is calculated by using the formula;

       Root mean square=\sqrt{ \frac{3RT}{M}

       Where R is the molar gas constant, T is the temperature and M is the molar mass of gas in Kg.

<h3>Step 1: Root mean square speed from O₂</h3>

Molar mass of Oxygen is 32.0 g/mol or 0.032 kg/mol

Temperature = 65 degrees Celsius or 338 K

Molar gas constant = 8.3145 J/k.mol

Root mean square speed = \sqrt\frac{(3)(8.3145)(338K)}{0.032}

                                        = 513.289 m/s

<h3>Step 2: Root mean square speed of UF₆   </h3>

The molar mass of UF₆ is 352 g/mol or 0.352 kg/mol        

Root mean square speed = \sqrt\frac{(3)(8.3145)(338K)}{0.352}

                                                 = 154.762m/s

Therefore; the root mean square speeds of O₂ and UF₆ is 513m/s and 155 m/s respectively.
