Which choice is not a property of an acid?

If an atom has 13 electrons how many electron shells does it have

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

If an atom has 13 electrons then it belongs to p-block of periodic table.

s level can accommodate 2 electrons.

p level can accommodate 6 electrons.

13 means 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1.

As you can see there totally 5 sub-shells.

Total number of shells are 3(1,2,3).

Under standard-state conditions, which of the following species is the best reducing agent? a. Ag+ b. Pb c. H2 d. Ag e. Mg2+

eimsori [14]

Answer: The correct answer is Option b.

Explanation:

Reducing agents are defined as the agents which help the other substance to get reduced and itself gets oxidized. They undergo oxidation reaction.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

For determination of reducing agents, we will look at the oxidation potentials of the substance. Oxidation potentials can be determined by reversing the standard reduction potentials.

For the given options:

Option a: $Ag^+$

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +1 is the most stable oxidation state of silver.

Option b: $Pb$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $Pb^{2+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.13 V

$Pb\rightarrow Pb^{2+}+2e^-;E^o_{(Pb/Pb^{2+})}=+0.13V$

Option c: $H_2$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $H^{+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is 0.0 V

$H_2\rightarrow 2H^++2e^-;E^o_{(H_2/H^{+})}=0.0V$

Option d: $Ag$

This metal can easily get oxidized to $Ag^{+}$ ion and the standard oxidation potential for this is -0.80 V

$Ag\rightarrow Ag^{+}+e^-;E^o_{(Ag/Ag^{+})}=-0.80V$

Option e: $Mg^{2+}$

This ion cannot be further oxidized because +2 is the most stable oxidation state of magnesium.

By looking at the standard oxidation potential of the substances, the substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get oxidized and will undergo oxidation reaction. Thus, considered as strong reducing agent.

From the above values, the correct answer is Option b.

when the following redoc reaction is balances (assume acidic solution), how many moles of water appear and on what side

PolarNik [594]

8 moles of water on the right side.

An oxidation-reduction or redox reaction is a reaction that involves the transfer of electrons between chemical items (the atoms, ions, or molecules involved in the reaction).

Redox reactions: the burning of fuels, the corrosion of metals, and even the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration involve oxidation and reduction.

Step 1:

MnO4- ----> Mn2+

2Cl- ------> Cl2

Step 2:

MnO4- --> Mn2+ + 4H2O

2Cl- -----> Cl2

Step 3:

8H+ + MnO4- ------> Mn2+ + 4H2O

2Cl- ----->Cl2

Step 4:

8H+ + MnO4- +5e- ------>Mn2+ + 4H2O

2Cl- ----> Cl2+ 2e-

Step 5:

16 H+ +2 MnO4- +10Cl- ----->2 Mn2+ + 8H2O+5Cl2

This is the balanced equation in an acidic medium.

That is 8, right side.

How much energy is needed to warm 7.40g of water by 55 degress C?

zloy xaker [14]

E = mCdT
E = energy, m = mass, C = specific heat capacity, dT = change in temperature.
526 = 0.074C x 17
E = 0.074C x 55
Divide the equations
E/526 = (0.074C x 55)/(0.074C x 17) = 55/17
E = (55 x 526)/17 = 1702 J
