Correct Question: what is the oxidizing agent in the reaction.
2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Answer: MnO4-is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
In the reaction 2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Oxidizing agent oxidizes other molecules while the themselves get reduced.
oxidizing agents give away Oxygen to other compounds.
MnO4-is the oxidizing agent because
On the reactants side
Oxidation number of Mn in 2MnO4- is +7
Oxidation number of Cl- is -1
On the products side
Oxidation number of Mn is +2
While oxidation number of Cl is zero
Therefore the oxidizing agent is 2MnO4 because is oxidizes Chlorine from -1 to 0 while itself got reduced from oxidation state of +7 to +2
Polar covalent bonds (because hydrogen and oxygen form polar bonds and are both nonmetals so it's covalent) and hydrogen bonds (because the water molecules are attracted to each other with partial charges, causing specific properties like surface tension).
So in my very bad drawing that I attached in case you're more a visual learner, the d- and d+ show the partial charges of hydrogen and oxygen (making it polar, as the electrons in the bond are more shifted towards oxygen, which is why oxygen has a negative sign) and the yellow dotted line show the hydrogen bonds.
Answer:
Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of microscopic particles, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. Gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.
Explanation:
Answer:
3 × 10⁴ kJ
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced thermochemical equation
C₃H₈(g) + 5 O₂(g) ⟶ 3 CO₂(g) + 4 H₂O(g) ΔH = -2220 kJ
Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 865.9 g of H₂O
The molar mass of H₂O is 18.02 g/mol.
865.9 g × 1 mol/18.02 g = 48.05 mol
Step 3: Calculate the heat produced when 48.05 moles of H₂O are produced
According to the thermochemical equation, 2220 kJ of heat are evolved when 4 moles of H₂O are produced.
48.05 mol × 2220 kJ/4 mol = 2.667 × 10⁴ kJ ≈ 3 × 10⁴ kJ
