_________is a process in which o2 is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions

Chemistry

Kisachek [45]3 years ago

Answer : The combustion is a process in which oxygen is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions.

Explanation :

Combustion reaction : It is defined as the reactions in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen gas to produce carbon dioxide and water.

The chemical equation of combustion reaction is:

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

The combustion reaction is also a redox reaction.

Redox reaction or Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the oxidation and reduction reaction takes place simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element increases. Or we can say that in oxidation, the loss of electrons takes place.

Reduction reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this, oxidation state of an element decreases. Or we can say that in reduction, the gain of electrons takes place.

The combustion reaction is also a redox reaction in which the carbon shows oxidation by the addition of oxygen or removal of hydrogen and oxygen shows reduction by the addition of hydrogen or removal of oxygen.

Hence, the combustion is a process in which oxygen is released as a by-product of oxidation-reduction reactions.

What is the charge on the phosphorus atom in the polyatomic ion: PO4-3
oee [108]

+5

Explanation:

  The given radical is                 PO₄³⁻

To solve this problem, we need to understand what oxidation number entails.

The extent of the oxidation of each atom is expressed by the oxidation number.

Here are some rules for assigning them:

  • Elements in an uncombined state or elements that combines with one another, their oxidation number is zero.
  • The charge on an ion is its oxidation number
  • In an neutral compound, algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms is zero.
  • In a radical, the algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of the ions is equal to the charge on them.

Oxygen is known to have an oxidation number of -2;

                       

                          PO₄³⁻

 P + 4(-2) = -3

 P -8 = -3

  P = -3 + 8 = +5

The charge on phosphorus is +5

Which contains more molecules; a mole of Chlorine gas (Cl2 ) or a mole of glucose (C6H1206) ?
Elodia [21]
This is a tricky question. a mole of any compound contains the same number of molecules of that certain compound. so, one mole of chlorine gas has the same number of molecules as one mole of glucose, which is 6.02 x 10^23.

this is avogadro's number and it applies for any mole of molecules. 

the question is tricky because it is like asking. " what weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of rocks?" the both weigh the same, a pound. when ewe talking about moles, same as pounds, it is a quantity unit. one mole will aways be equal to 6.02 x 10^23 molecules.
