Halogen element, any of the six nonmetallic elements that constitute Group 17 (Group VIIa) of the periodic table. The halogen elements are fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), astatine (At), and tennessine (Ts). They were given the name halogen, from the Greek roots hal- (“salt”) and -gen (“to produce”), because they all produce sodium salts of similar properties, of which sodium chloride—table salt, or halite—is best known.
Answer:
C + O2 → CO2
Explanation:
C + O2 → CO ----------------- (1)
from equ (1) on reactant side, C has 1 mole, O has 2 moles
from equ (1) on product side, C has 1 mole, O has 1 mole
Thus, to balance the equation, O should have 2 moles
C + O2 → CO2
Answer:
where is the diagram shown
Electrochemical cell representation for above reaction is,
Br-/Br2//I2/I-
Reaction at Anode: Br2 + 2e- → 2Br- (1)
Reaction at Cathode: 2I- → I2 + 2e- (2)
Standard reduction potential for Reaction 1 = Ered(anode) = 1.066 v
Standard reduction potential for Reaction 2 = Ered(cathode) = 0.535 v
Eo cell = Ered(cathode) - Ered(anode)
= 0.535 - 1.066
= -0.531v
Now, we know that ΔGo = -nF (Eo cell) ..............(3)
Also, ΔGo = RTln(K) ..........(4)
Equation 3 and 4 we get,
ln (K) = nF (Eo cell) / RT
= 2 X 96500 X (-0.531)/ (8.314 X 298)
∴ K = 1.085 X 10^-18.
