Redox reactions can be written as two half-reactions, focusing on the gain or loss of electrons by one of the chemical substance

s. One half-reaction shows the oxidation while the other shows the reduction. When the two half-reactions are combined, the overall reaction is obtained.The half-reactions can aid in the balancing of redox equations because the number of each element must be balanced as well as the number of electrons gained and lost. What substance is added to balance the hydrogen in a half-reaction?
A. H₂O₂
B. H₂O
C. H⁺
D. H₂

Answer:

C) H⁺

Explanation:

When we are balancing the reaction<em> in an acid medium</em>, hydrogen is balanced using the <u>H⁺</u> species. This is most likely the intended answer of your question.

When the reaction takes place not in an acid medium, but in <em>an alkaline one</em>, then hydrogen is present as the OH⁻ species. However this option is not given in your question.

Thus the answer is option C).

What is the mass of ether(0.71) which can be put into a beaker holding 130ml
UkoKoshka [18]
D=m/v    ⇒ m=d*v

d=density
m=mass
v=volume

d(ether)=0.71 gr/cm³=0.71 gr/ ml
v=130 ml

m=d*v
m=0.71 gr/ml*(130 ml)=92.3 g

Solution: m=92.3 g

How many moles of pcl5 can be produced from 28.0 g of p4 (and excess cl2)?
BARSIC [14]
P₄ + 10Cl₂ ---> 4PCl₅
stoichiometry of P₄ to PCl₅ is 1:4
number of moles of P₄ reacted - 28.0 g / 124 g/mol = 0.22 mol 
Cl₂ is in excess therefore P₄ is the limiting reactant, amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present 
according to molar ratio of 1:4
number of PCl₅ moles formed  -0.22 mol x 4 = 0.88 mol 
0.88 mol of PCl₅ is formed

Which of the following is altered by a catalyst?
Vika [28.1K]
<span>In chemistry, a catalyst can speed up the reaction (or make it initiate easier) by altering the activation energy, lowering it enough to allow the reactants to react more easily. Some negative catalysts or inhibitors can do the same by increasing the activation energy.
