The anode is the negative electrode and so will be donating electrons to assist in this chemical reaction occuring. All reactions accept electrons as reactants. The key issue is the reduction potential Eo (+1.8V). This is greatest for the reaction:
Co3+ + e -> Co2+
Therefore this reaction has the greatest tendency to occur.
Answer:
Yes A redox reaction can be a combination reaction.
Two elements are mixed in a combination reaction to produce a single product.
Explanation:
Example: water formula
2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
Oxygen is reduced in this reaction when electrons are transferred from hydrogen to oxygen and hydrogen is also oxidized since oxygen from hydrogen accepts electrons. Oxygen is the oxidizing agent and hydrogen is the reducing agent.
2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
<u>Answer and Explanation:</u>
Mercury combines with sulfur as follows -
Hg + S = HgS
Hg = 200,59
S = 32,066 Therefore 1.58 g of Hg will react with -
1.58 multiply with 32,066 divide by 200,96 of sulfur.
= 0.25211 g S
This will form 1.58 + 0.25211 g HgS = 1.83211 g HgS
The amount of S remaining = 1.10 - 0.25211 = 0.84789 g
It called cation, Well, When an atom gains or loses an electron, it
attains a net charge and becomes an ion. When electrons are lost, the
resulting ion is called cation and when electrons are gained, the
resulting ion is called an anion. So, Cations have a net positive
charge, while anions have a net negative charge. it is true.
