Answer:
Explanation:
The formula of the reaction:
KClO₂ → KCl + O₂
To assign oxidation numbers, we have to obey some rules:
- Elements in an uncombined state or one whose atoms combine with one another to form molecules have an oxidation number of zero.
- The charge on simple ions signifies their oxidation number.
- The algebraic sum of all the oxidation number of all atoms in a neutral compound is zero. For radicals with charges, their oxidation number is the charge.
The oxidation number of K in KClO₂:
K + (-1) + 2(-2) = 0
K-5 = 0
K = +5
The oxidation number of K in KCl:
K + (-1) = 0
K = +1
The oxidation number Cl in KClO₂ is -1
For Cl in KCl, the oxidation number is -1
For O in KClO₂, the oxidation number is (2 x -2) = -4
For O in O₂, the oxidation number is 0
K moves from an oxidation state of +5 to +1. This is a gain of electrons and K has undergone reduction. We then say K is reduced.
O moves from an oxidation state of -4 to 0. This is a loss of electrons and O has undergone oxidation. We say O is oxidized.
The answer is B

Answer:
Use the Bromotriflouride catalyst, BF₃
Explanation:
The BF₃ is most likely to yield less desired side products. The effect lies in the reaction mechanism.
BF₃ is a Lewis acid. Its role is to promote the ionization of the HF. This is achieved through the electrophilic mechanism. The reaction mechanism is as follows:
2 - methylpropene + H-F-BF₃ → H-F + H₃C + benzene
butylbenzene + F-BF₃ → tert-butylbenzene + H-F + BF₃ (regenerated catalyst)
Answer:
if I am going to answer I need the set up
Explanation:
please show the set up and I will answer the question
Answer is: the ratio of the effusion rate is 1.59 : 1.
1) rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 1/√M(CO).
rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 1/√28.
rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 0.189.
2) rate of effusion of chlorine = 1/√M(Cl₂).
rate of effusion of chlorine = 1/√70.9.
rate of effusion of chlorine = 0.119.
rate of effusion of carbon monoxide : rate of effusion of chlorine =
= 0.189 : 0.119 / ÷0.119.
rate of effusion of carbon monoxide : rate of effusion of chlorine = 1.59 : 1.
