Explanation:
Bayer process is industrial method of the refining of the bauxite to produce alumina which is aluminum oxide.
As alumina is amphoteric in nature, it exhibits a higher solubility at both the extremes of pH range, it is possible to dissolve alumina in low as well as in high pH solutions.
Dissolution of the alumina at high pH is well recognized in Bayer process. Bauxite is digested in very <u>high pH solution (> 13) of alkali</u> like sodium hydroxide at temperature of about 150–250°C and pressure at 20 atm. <u>This is done so that the dissolved alumina is separated from rest of insoluble bauxite minerals. </u>
The answer is (3) HClO. In the Cl2, chlorine has an oxidation number of zero. In HCl, the oxidation number is -1. In HClO2, the oxidation number is +3. In HClO, it is +1. You can calculate this by using O with oxidation number of -2 and H with +1.
Explanation:
This is correct!
Ions that exist in both the reactant and product side of the equation are referred to as spectator ions. Overall, they do not partake in the reaction. If they are present on both sides of the equation, you can cancel them out.
An example is;
Na+(aq) + Cl−(aq) + Ag+(aq) + NO3−(aq) → Na+(aq) + NO3−(aq) + AgCl(s)
The ions; Na+, NO3−(aq) would be cancelled out to give;
Cl−(aq) + Ag+(aq) → AgCl(s)
