An Exothermic reaction releases energy into the surroundings and so the products have more potential energy then the reactants. The enthalpy change is a negative value. Whereas, an endothermic reaction involves the absorption of energy into the system and so the reactants have more potential energy than the products. The enthalpy change is a positive value. This is clearly represented in energy profile diagrams.
Water is a natural resource that us and animals rely on. With out it, there wouldn't be no life on Earth
Techneutim(Tc) has 43 protons, 43 electrons and 54 neutrons.
To write a complete balanced reaction of a redox reaction, we need to know the half reactions of the molecules involved in the reaction and to balance these reactions. From, the problem statement ClO2- is oxidized to ClO4- so the half reaction would be:
(ClO)2- = (ClO)4-
To balance,
We first balance the elements except O and H in the reaction.
(ClO2)- = (ClO4)-
Then, we balance O by adding H2O and balance H by adding H+
(ClO2)- + 2H2O = (ClO4)- + 2H+
Then, we balance the charges by adding electrons,
(ClO2)- + 2H2O = (ClO4)- + 2H+ + e-
Then for Ag+ to Ag,
Ag+ = Ag
We just need to balance the charge,
Ag+ + e- = Ag
To determine the final equation, we add both half reactions:
(ClO2)- + 2H2O = (ClO4)- + 2H+ + e-
Ag+ + e- = Ag
