When the equation Sn + HNO₃ → SnO₂ + NO₂ + H₂O is balanced in acidic solution, what is the smallest whole-number coefficient for
balu736 [363]

Answer:

1.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the given reaction we first assign the oxidation state for each species:

Sn^0 + H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 + N^{4+}O^{2-}_2 + H^+_2O^-

Whereas the half reactions are:

Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow  N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O

Next, we exchange the transferred electrons:

1\times(Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-)\\\\4\times (H^++H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +1e^-\rightarrow  N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+H_2O)\\\\\\Sn^0+2H_2O \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4e^-\\\\4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3 +4e^-\rightarrow  4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O

Afterwards, we add them to obtain:

Sn^0+2H_2O+4H^++4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3  \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4H^++4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+4H_2O

By adding and subtracting common terms we obtain:

Sn^0+4H^+N^{5+}O^{-2}_3  \rightarrow Sn^{4+}O_2 +4N^{4+}O^{2-}_2+2H_2O

Finally, by removing the oxidation states we have:

Sn + 4HNO_3 \rightarrow SnO_2 + 4NO_2 + 2H_2O

Therefore, the smallest whole-number coefficient for Sn is 1.

Regards.

Thich of the following is a chemical property2
Dimas [21]

Answer:

"Freezing point  and ability to react with oxygen" are chemical properties

Explanation:

The change of liquid into solid is the freezing point. The melting point is more than the freezing point in certain cases of mixtures for certain organic compounds like fats. As soon as the mixture freezes it becomes solid and which results in change in the composition from the liquid and solid in this way the it drastically reduces the freezing point. The melting point gets higher due to the pressure. This happens due to the release of heat of which results in the rise of temperature to the freezing point .Also the reaction of elements with oxygen which leads to formation of new substance is also an chemical property

Human body cells are made by doing what ? ​
frozen [14]

Answer:

When cells become damaged or die the body makes new cells to replace them. This process is called cell division. One cell doubles by dividing into two. Two cells become four and so on.

Baking soda (NaHCO3) and vinegar (HC2H3O2) react to form sodium acetate, water, and carbon dioxide. If 42.00 g of baking soda re
Setler [38]

Answer:

0.5 mole of CO₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 42 g of baking soda (NaHCO₃). This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of NaHCO₃ = 42 g

Molar mass of NaHCO₃ = 23 + 1 + 12 + (16×3)

= 23 + 1 + 12 + 48

= 84 g/mol

Mole of NaHCO₃ =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of NaHCO₃ = 42/84

Mole of NaHCO₃ = 0.5 mole

Next, balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

NaHCO₃ + HC₂H₃O₂ → NaC₂H₃O₂ + H₂O + CO₂

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of NaHCO₃ reacted to produce 1 mole of CO₂

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of CO₂ produced by the reaction of 42 g (i.e 0.5 mole) of NaHCO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of NaHCO₃ reacted to produce 1 mole of CO₂.

Therefore, 0.5 mole of NaHCO₃ will also react to produce 0.5 mole of CO₂.

Thus, 0.5 mole of CO₂ was obtained from the reaction.

How are antibodies and receptor molecules function similarly
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

Antigens are molecules capable of stimulating an immune response. Each antigen has distinct surface features, or epitopes, resulting in specific responses. Antibodies (immunoglobins) are Y-shaped proteins produced by B cells of the immune system in response to exposure to antigens.
