In the oxidation reduction reaction 2FeCl2 + Cl2 = 2FeCl3 what substance is reduced? What substance is oxidized?

Chemistry

marishachu [46]3 years ago

Answer:

Iron is oxidized while chlorine is reduced.

Explanation:

The oxidation reduction reactions are called redox reaction. These reactions are take place by gaining or losing the electrons and oxidation state of elements are changed.

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reaction:

2FeCl₂  + Cl₂  →  2FeCl₃

in this reaction the oxidation state of iron is increased from +2 to +3. That's why iron get oxidized and it is reducing agent because it reduced the chlorine. The chlorine is reduced from -2 to -3 and it is oxidizing agent because it oxidized the iron.

2Fe⁺²Cl₂⁻²

2Fe⁺³Cl₃⁻³

The iron atom gives it three electrons to three atoms of chlorine and gain positive charge while chlorine atom accept the electron and form anion.

What is the age of mummified primate skin that contains 8.25% of the original quantity of 14C?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

20619.4793 years

Explanation:

The half life of carbon-14 = 5730 years

The formula for the half life for a first order kinetic reaction is:

t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}

Where,  

t_{1/2} is the half life

k is the rate constant.

Thus rate constant is:

5730 years=ln(2)/k

k = 1.21×10⁻⁴ years ⁻¹

Using integrated rate law as:

ln\ \frac {A_t}{A_0}=-k\times t

Where,

A_t is the concentration at time t

A_0 is the initial concentration

Given that the final concentration contains 8.25 % of the original quantity which means that:

\frac {A_t}{A_0}=0.0825

So,

ln(.0825)= -1.21×10⁻⁴×t

<u> t = 20619.4793 years</u>

Calculate the number of atoms in 52g of He.​
MissTica

Answer:

78.3 × 10²³ atoms of helium are present in 52 g.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of He = 52 g

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of moles of He

Number of moles = mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 52 g/ 4 g/mol

Number of moles = 13 mol

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of helium

13 mol  × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of helium  / 1 mole

78.3 × 10²³ atoms of helium

As the temperature of a reaction is increased, the rate of the reaction increases because the . (A) reactant molecules collide m
vredina [299]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Temperature is the measure of "hotness" of a system. When temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the particles increase. So they will collide with greater energy per collision.
