Answer:

3 FeCl3 + H2S = 2 FeCl2 + S + 2 HCl

Explanation:

Fe goes form +3 to +2

S goes from -2 to 0

H and Cl are spectator ions

Fe3+ + 1e-= Fe2+

H2S = S + 2 H+ + 2e-

3 Fe3+ + H2S = 2 Fe2+ + S + 2 H+

3 FeCl3 + H2S = 2 FeCl2 + S + 2 HCl

a sample of compound determined to contain 1.71 g C and 0.287 g H. The corresponding empirical formula is
fiasKO [112]

Answer: The empirical formula is CH_2.

Explanation:

Mass of C = 1.71 g

Mass of H = 0.287 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = \frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{1.71g}{12g/mole}=0.142moles

Moles of H = \frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.287g}{1g/mole}=0.287moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C =\frac{0.142}{0.142}=1

For H =\frac{0.287}{0.142}=2

The ratio of C: H = 1: 2

Hence the empirical formula is CH_2.

Write the oxidation and reduction half reactions;
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a)

Fe^{2+}⇒Fe^{3+}+e^-

Br_2+2e^-⇒2Br^-

b)

Mg⇒Mg^{2+}+2e^-

Cr^{3+}+e^-⇒Cr^{3+}

Explanation:

A)

Remember that positive number superscripts mean electrons lack and negative numbers mean electrons 'excess' (if we compare it with the neutral element). So, for the case of Fe2+ which is converted to Fe3+, we know that in Fe2+ there is a two electrons lack, while in Fe3+ there is a 3 electrons lack; it means that Fe2+ was converted to Fe3+ but releasing one electron:

Fe^{2+}⇒Fe^{3+}+e^-

The same analysis is applied to Br2; Br2 is a molecule which is said to have a zero superscript because it is an apolar covalent bond; and it is converted to Br-, which, according to what I wrote above, means that there is a one electron excess. So, Br2 must have received an electron in order to change to Br-; but Br2 can't change to Br- as simple as that because Br2 is a molecule, not an atom; it is a molecule that has two Br atoms, so, Br2 must give two Br- ions as products, but receiving one electron for each one:

Br_2+2e^-⇒2Br^-

b)

Applying the same, in Mg2+ there is a 2 electrons lack, and in Mg is not electron lack (its superscript is zero), so Mg must have released two electrons in order to change to Mg2+:

Mg⇒Mg^{2+}+2e^-

Cr3+ has a 3 electrons lack, and Cr2+ a two electrons one, so, Cr3+ must receive an electron to convert to Cr2+:

Cr^{3+}+e^-⇒Cr^{3+}
