Answer:

SCN- is a weak field ligand while CN- is a strong field ligand

Explanation:

The spectrochemical series is an arrangement of ligands according to their magnitude of crystal field splitting. Ligands that cause only a small degree of crystal field splitting are called weak field ligands while ligands that cause large crystal field splitting are called strong field ligands.

Strong field ligands often lead to the formation of low spin complexes with the least number of unpaired electrons while high spin complexes are formed by weak field ligands.

CN- is a strong field ligand as it lies towards the right hand side of the spectrochemical series.

SCN- is a weak field ligand hence it forms a high spin complex having the maximum number of unpaired electrons for Fe^3+, hence the answer.

Noble gases are unreactive because of their electronic structures. The kind of reasoning that states "if other elements could be
Goshia [24]

Answer:

C. Deductive reasoning

Explanation:

Deductive reasoning is a reasoning or logical process whereby a conclusion is drawn based on the belief of multiple premises that are generally assumed to be true. It is a logical process in which one or multiple statements reaches a logical conclusion.

In the question, the statement assumed to be true is that <em>noble gases are unreactive because of their electronic structures.</em>

The conclusion thus drawn from the premise is that <em>if other elements could be made to achieve noble gases electronic structures (</em><u><em>this is the reason why they are unreactive - the fact)</em></u><em> they would be more stable.</em>

<em />

Therefore, deductive reasoning moves from a wilder reasoning to a specific (narrower) reasoning.

A voltaic cell is based on the reduction of ag (aq) to ag(s) and the oxidation of sn(s) to sn2 (aq).
Annette [7]

Half-reaction for the cell's anode is given below:

Anode : \\Sn(s) \rightarrow Sn^{2+} (aq) +2e^{-}

The anode is defined as the electrode at which electrons leave the cell and oxidation occurs, and the cathode as the electrode at which electrons enter the cell and reduction occurs. The anode is usually the positive side.

For the reaction: N2(g) + H2(g) → NH3(g)
gayaneshka [121]

The rate of increase of NH3 is 0.22M/s.

<h3>What is the balanced equation of the reaction?</h3>

The balanced equation of the reaction is given below:

  • N2(g) + 3 H2(g) → 2 NH3(g)

The rate of decrease of N2 is half the rate of increase of NH3.

Rate of decrease of N2 = -0.11 M/s

Rate of increase of NH3 = 2 × +0.11 M/s = 0.22M/s.

In conclusion, the rate of formation of products is dependent on the rate of disappearance of reactants.
