Answer:

Metal

Explanation:

Metals conduct electricity, because they have free and mobile electrons that can carry the electricity and spread it around. Nonmetals usually cannot conduct electricity, but there are a few exceptions.

Given the partial equation:
Nikolay [14]

Answer : The balanced chemical equation in acidic medium will be,

IO_3^-(aq)+2Sn^{2+}(aq)+6H^+(aq)\rightarrow I^-(aq)+2Sn^{4+}(aq)+3H_2O(l)

Explanation :

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

Rules for the balanced chemical equation in acidic solution are :

First we have to write into the two half-reactions.

Now balance the main atoms in the reaction.

Now balance the hydrogen and oxygen atoms on both the sides of the reaction.

If the oxygen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding water molecules at that side where the less number of oxygen are present.

If the hydrogen atoms are not balanced on both the sides then adding hydrogen ion (H^+) at that side where the less number of hydrogen are present.

Now balance the charge.

The given chemical reaction is,

IO_3^-(aq)+Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow I^-(aq)+Sn^{4+}(aq)

The oxidation-reduction half reaction will be :

Oxidation : Sn^{2+}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}

Reduction : IO_3^-\rightarrow I^-

First balance the main element in the reaction.

Oxidation : Sn^{2+}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}

Reduction : IO_3^-\rightarrow I^-

Now balance oxygen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sn^{2+}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}

Reduction : IO_3^-\rightarrow I^-+3H_2O

Now balance hydrogen atom on both side.

Oxidation : Sn^{2+}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}

Reduction : IO_3^-+6H^+\rightarrow I^-+3H_2O

Now balance the charge.

Oxidation : Sn^{2+}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}+2e^-

Reduction : IO_3^-+6H^++4e^-\rightarrow I^-+3H_2O

The charges are not balanced on both side of the reaction. Thus, we are multiplying oxidation reaction by 2 and the adding both equation, we get the balanced redox reaction.

Oxidation : 2Sn^{2+}\rightarrow 2Sn^{4+}+4e^-

Reduction : IO_3^-+6H^++4e^-\rightarrow I^-+3H_2O

The balanced chemical equation in acidic medium will be,

IO_3^-(aq)+2Sn^{2+}(aq)+6H^+(aq)\rightarrow I^-(aq)+2Sn^{4+}(aq)+3H_2O(l)

Which of the following would increase the amount to dissolve a solid solute?
AVprozaik [17]

By stirring and increasing temperature, there is an increase in dissolving capacity of the solid solute.

<u>Explanation:</u>

If a solute is added to the solution, it doesn't get dissolve easily then we have to increase the temperature, which in turn increases the movement of the solvent (may be water) and the solute particles, thus increases the dissolving power of the solid solute. One more way is by constant stirring, that is by making more contact among the solvent as well as the solute particles there by increasing the solubility of solid solute.
